I would love them all- The Sims/2/3 all rolled into one Awesome game. I miss things from The Sims, too. Things they never brought back to any of the games.
I would give anything for the wandering saxophone players and cool psychic NPCs from TS1 to make their game return. They were my favorite.
They already did remaster TS2. It is called The Sims 3 and came out on 2009.
I mean, it has what the TS2 base game had but more. You had your toddlers, teens with their own height and then they added cars in the base rather than just car pools and something called Open World.
I wouldn't want it remastered or change too much in the visuals department. The CC we have for it would likely become obsolete. And who knows how many creators would jump on board for it vs the old style.
However, that doesn't mean that they can't fiddle with the graphics to allow for newer cards to have high shadows without black rectangles appearing under their feet.
Or bugs worked out, especially the neighborhood and game breaking bugs.
These were honestly things I was hoping they would have fixed when they released the Ultimate Collection. I figured that's why it was out so much later after they finished the game as opposed to their release of the Sims 1 Complete Collection. And another reason why it was offered for free, because it was essentially just a big patch for the game, that was easier to release this way than through a standalone patch.
I'm not sure I would want a Sims 2: Remastered Edition, honestly. What I think they should do is completely start over with the franchise using Sims 2 as the base. Which would include having the entire team re-play Sims 2 like a normal player for a month so they can see what we all love about it.
It could still use improvements, like being able to build a garage on a house with a foundation and being able to do split leveling easier without cheats, but if they started with that base then it would be a fantastic game.
They need more than a month to play it. There's so much to the game that it would take at least 3-4 months. They need to play long enough to risk at least some of them hitting major glitches. So they can learn from Sims 2's mistakes as well as its successes.
it was only a matter of time before threads like this made its way into the POSITIVE sims 2 forums. keep this mess up there in the sims 4 forums. i said no there and i will repeat it here. no! do not want! the sims 2 is fine just the way it is. it cannot be replicated or duplicated. that FACT has been proven by sims 3 AND sims 4.
there is no argument. THE SIMS 2 STANDS ALONE AS THE BEST. AS IS!
Let's face it, if they remade The Sims 2 with more content, better graphics and more customisations, it truly would be the perfect The Sims game.
Live your life to the fullest, don't wait for a miracle to happen, be the miracle to make things happen.
Sometimes your creativity is limited where you use it most, but you can use those limitations to inspire new forms of creativity you may never have thought of beforehand.
I think Sims 4 is the remastered of Sims 2 because its made by same company OBVIOUSLY
Lol what a laugh the sims 4 is not a remastered sims 2 and the same company did not make both.. have you nor played sins 2 obviously not I'd you think that sims,4 is remastered sims 2
What a laugh..
I was thinking of buying TS2...but Im so used to TS3 that im used to those kind of graphics, so is it worth buying in 2015? I know its considered one of the best PC games of all time, but I want to know what you guys think :)

I actually like the graphics of Sims 2 so much more than how Sims 3 looks. Yes, there are less hair colors and eye colors and skin colors, but the Sim detail is wonderful.

Me too . I got spoiled with the detail of everything in TS2. TS3 was alright looking (especially the vista views), TSM was really good (great looking sims), TS4 is the worst since TS1 imo, but TS2 always had that good visual balance that appeals to my aesthetic.
no. leave the sims 2 alone. after going back to the sims 2 ultimate collection im satisfied with it just as it is. ive now played for a week and im still discovering new things. unless they can get will wright on the development team anything calling itself sims 2 remastered will be a fail.
had i been asked this question BEFORE i went back...maybe. but since ive been playing...my answer is PLUM NO!

You should def buy sims 2 best game ever you won't be disappointed I've played them all and sims 2 is the very best and it still puts sims4 to shame
Essentially I want Sims 2 gameplay and sims personalities to stay the same. Sims 3 open world and colour wheel and build mode, and I like Sims 4 CAS but I don't like how cartoonish the sims look..
Nope, Sims 2 was (and is!) a great game just the way it is. And if you added open world, new graphics, story progression, and other things wouldn't it just be a different Sims game then and not TS2 anymore? I think a (permanent) re-release would better, personally.

I would eat my own hair for this to happen. I'm surprised you didn't ask for Justine Keaton to return
What a laugh..

If they leave story progression out, then your suggestion sounds good to me!

Unless the old game was a bugfest before why not? But I love TS2 dearly still for the way it is so nope!
