Personally, I love The Sims 4 a tad more than The Sims 2, but The Sims 2 is an EXTREMELY close second. Who else thinks The Sims 2 is one of the best Sims games?

Reiterating what may151997 writes, it would be great if the best features were in one game.
In my opinion, the most "complete" game is currently Sims2.
Aesthetically pleasing isn't the be and end all for me - occasionally I still play SimCity and Mario Kart with the SNES - the gameplay is more important.
The Sims 2, while I think it is the best in game play, also fell short of what The Sims had- Super Star/Makin' Magic/Winter Vacation fun- they let me down in TS2, also.
Apartment Life has witches and warlocks, and Bon Voyage is an improvement on Vacation. True about Super Star though

Actually, to me- Bon Voyage wasn't an improvement on the Vacation expansions just Because Toddlers and Pets couldn't go even if the family had a house in the Vacation destination and because there was no Winter Vacation. I do realize they didn't want to add it if others didn't have the Seasons pack but they could have and it could have made BV Awesome instead of Okay.
Witches and Warlocks felt like an afterthought with the Apartment Life expansion. As if they put them in so they didn't Have to make a Makin' Magic expansion with all the wonderful stuff. So, that wasn't so great.
Sorry to read that you felt let down by TS2.
Didn't the Aspirational Rewards make up for the loss of some of the objects in The Sims?
You don't have to be sorry for me- It's just something I learn about the Sims games. Aspiration rewards in no way replace things that I waited for with each iteration.
While I could have Winter in a Vacation world there weren't any Winter Activities for that Winter Vacation world. So nothing could fill that hole.
While TS2 is Great in Game play, I still feel the last 3 packs were phoned in and not up to what they should have been. Hobbies.... Hobbies doesn't seem like a Full Expansion compared to University and Night Life or Open for Business. Apartments was fun but it tossed in Witches as if they were an after thought. So, to ME they were weak and left me wanting.

This! It is the best they ever made. It's too bad they have lost the people who made that game, b/c I don't think they'll ever be able to make a better one without those brilliant people.
