    Is the mac sims 2 super collection worth to buy?

    in The Sims 2
    So the sims 2 super collection cost 30 dollars in apple store and I only have a mac so I can't play the free sims 2 ultimate collection version that I already have in Origin. I saw that there was no apartment life and free time EPs in the mac version that costs 30 dollars. So I was wondering if you guys can advice me if it's worth it or not to still buy it? I mean I have the money to buy it but I don't know how much I will be missing of gameplay without apartment life and free time....

      I don't have a Mac, but I can tell you that both of those (Apartment Life, and Free Time) will add quite a bit of enjoyment to your game. To give you a little bit of an idea of what they will add, you can check out these links.

      It is possible to purchase a Windows license and install Windows though Boot Camp but you'll need to own The Sims 2 on PC (such as the CD/DVD or Ultimate Collection) to play it.

      In addition to The Sims 2 FreeTime and The Sims 2 Apartment Life, there are also Stuff Packs that are released on Windows.

      I have been wondering it too. I have a mac and I did bootcamp mine. It caused lots of issues and in the end I had to rebuild my macbook pro. which meant loosing sims 2 UC I had been playing. I'm looking at getting the super collection because of this and the desktop I'm trying to get to work won't on the install. I have thread on that if anyone thinks they can help.

      It's definitely worth it! I've had it for a year now, and I've been playing non-stop. Yeah, Apartment Life and Free Time made Sims 2 really fun, but it's still good without those two EPs.

      I have it, and it's worth getting if you loved Sims 2. It's a little disappointing not having the other stuff packs and expansions, but the game runs beautifully.

      Honestly I find it satisfying. Having had the Mansions and Garden stuff, I miss the building capacity that title permitted in the series, and I also had H&M fashion stuff too. The visuals are far better than I remember them being, despite having a very high end HP PC back in the day on my New MacBook Pro, it looks every bit as stunning as on my older MacBook Pro. I just wish there would be a bundle or a pay to play extra which would include the rest for like 20 or 30 more bucks. I would have been okay way that. AT LEAST custom content can be downloaded via some of the good sites like thesimsresource and parsimonious and modthesims.

      It's super worth it, it runs surprisingly well on the mac. Those 2 EP's are fun, but they aren't compatible with mac. So if you're looking for the sims 2 that'll actually work for you, it's pretty much your only option that isn't gonna either not work on your computer at all or seriously mess up your computer in the process

      It is definitely worth it but I have started contacting Aspyr to see if Freetime & Apartment Life will be ported for Mac in the future.

      Any Sims game is worth it!

      JayGlover did Aspyr ever get back to you?
