There is a difference in hyping and or telling how something is in reality. And after the invite a few years ago, their site turned into a total ad campaign for TS4. It changed, I never hung out there but I do know after Simmer's camp the site (through links posted here) the site became one big fat ads everywhere instead of what I call 'news' Not saying they don't keep players informed because they do, but they don't actually tell what is not liked by players or what is left out players thought should be in there like other sites do. I just like a little more balance and not a site covered in ads of the game. Banners everywhere, but I supposed that looks good to people who love a game. It doesn't help for those who don't who are just looking for information.
lol, and about a thousand here didn't vote for TS2, either. We were too busy complaining what we don't like about TS4 to see a poll over on SimsVIP TS4 website. lol
That's why I said the proof is in the pudding and in all fairness TS3's base game out sold everybody even my beloved TS2 base game, in it's first week. So, popularity is in the money not the polling.
In the end, I don't think it matters which one is most popular anyway. If a game has an audience that enjoys it, that's a good thing for that game; and if the audience is big enough to justify the producer creating new content for it, that's great for those players, and probably a good nudge toward keeping the series going. The only reason I can see to care if your own personal favourite is more popular than someone else's personal favourite is if you think it somehow reflects on you,* and why would it do that?

I don't think you're going to find a single site that tells you the good, bad, and the ugly without any bias. When looking for opinions on products, it's usually good to get as many varied takes as possible for this reason. Which is pretty much the foundation of online review systems on places like Amazon.
You don't need to be a member. Anybody can vote. I think it will only registers your IP address
That is why you can vote multiple times.
Exactly. A lot of Sims 4 players are playing the Sims for the first time, and I'm sure even more than that have maybe played 1 or 2 previous games. Also, many people are comparing 10 year old graphics with today and just judge on that.
Sims 4 is getting all the press, so naturally, people are more likely to vote that way.
But if you don't feel welcome you certainly aren't going to go out of your way to participate are you?

What I found so amazing that the sims 2 had more features and in my opinion I find the sims 3 and the sims 4 rushed made due to their lack of content and they dont really make the game with their own creative minds like the sims and the sims 2. They created the game just for money which is what they all care about which is what I see in the sims 3 and sims 4.
The reason I am seeing this is because the gameplay in the sims 2 is so amazing like let me list them for you
-The hair is animated a little when the sims move.
-The weeds growing in the backyard.
-The flowerbed die if unwatered.
-The sims order groceries and had to update it when the fridge is empty.
-Food deliveries such as Chinese.
-The social bunny appears when the sims has a low social need, only the sim with low social needs can see but no other sim can see it,
-The special event camera such as marriage, being left at the altar and of course alien abduction.
-Clothing stores, the sims actually buy their own clothes unlike other games where they use a dresser with free clothes.
-Underwear clothing
-The exterminator service if any insects are in the house.
-Sims can become ill even die from it.
-If the house is dirty - death by the flies
I think the sims 2 is the best game in the overall series due and the fact that it does not feel rushed unlike the sims 3 and sims 4. Plus you got to admit that is pretty impressive for a 2004 game especially when they had a fire in their company while destroyed the data and they have to rebuilt it again.
In my honest opinion, I find the sims 4 is where EA is just "milking it to death" just like LGR has said. they do not care what sort of gameplay they want. Game developers cannot use their creative minds on what they want in the game as it has to be rushed. I think it all changed since Maxis went with EA.
Wrong. It's focused on any Sims news, and has recently talked about new patches for 3, new mods, CC etc.

Very rarely. I check it for sims news and almost all content is about 4.
Hold up, no it didn't. The Sims 2 has sold 6 million on PC. The Sims 3 sold 3 million in the first 3 months, but considerably dropped after the feedback from gamers regarding performance, and it slumped. In total, The Sims 3 has sold 10 million on all platforms as of 2014. EA wouldn't give a PC only number, and so it's hard to know. But the Sims 2 sold 13 million on all platforms as of 2014, so it's safe to say the Sims 2 is the biggest seller, not 3.
Everyone acts like the Sims 3 was bigger than The Sims 1 and 2, but it really wasn't. It had very short lived success because of the feedback. I remember when the Sims 3 leaked and everyone called it a BETA because they assumed based on performance, and yet when the final came out, it was the exact same version number and played exactly the same, and thats where it became a mess.

Well, there's not as much news about Sims 3 to give, though, honestly. They'd have to be making it up if they were going to balance it with news on a currently-being-added-to game.
