    How would you feel if EA released Sims Complete Collection on Origin?

    I'm talking about the original Sims with all 7 Expansion Packs, would you like to see this happen? I'm only thinking this since not long ago they released The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection on Origin, so why not do the same for The Sims 1?

      I would love that. It's currently available on Amazon for over a hundred dollars. I'd love to check it out again, but not at that price.

      I still have it and play it, but I think it would be an awesome gesture to release the one that started it all as a thank you to the rest of the fans. A lot of people don't have it any more or never had the chance to play it.

      It's hard though. It's the hardest Sims game out there. Not sure if it would receive the love it deserves with the way the game gets dumbed down with each new release.
      Dissatisfied with Sims 4 and hoping for a better Sims 5

      i still have the original. deluxe edition in the box. it still even has the best buy sticker on it. in 2001 it was $19.99!

      im cool with the ultimate collection. all ea needs to do for me is release everything sims 2 that isnt included in the ultimate collection. #yeaimgreedy
      free the sims!

      i have both, the original in a big box (& Living Large also)
      & the Deluxe Edition in a DVD box

      the definition of files was changed after Deluxe
      i can't remember anymore what exactly it was what they changed but some things weren't possible to edit anymore after Deluxe

      & indeed TS1 is very hard to play
      very little money, sims always exhausted from work, no possibility to visit any other lot, telephone only for invitations of other sims & some of them just don't want to come over, friendships & romantic relationships are very hard work

      but i still love that game :smiley:

      i won't be participating in the forums & the gallery anymore - thanks EA

      I wouldn't mind, but Sims 2 is where I belong. Sims 1 is too challenging for nothing, and I don't play Sims just to constantly feed my sims. They need to get out, too!

      @Frogprincess_q I got my copy for $40 including shipping, it just took awhile to find it. Remember they're not linked to Origin accounts so you can buy used! I just waited until I found a used copy that had no scratched discs and included the original booklet with CD key (per the description on Amazon).

      I would love it if they sold it through Origin updated for new OS's though! Pleeeeeease do this, EA! I'd buy a new copy!!

      I found TS1 at a local game store. I bought the last copy for $15.

      I live in small town Australia, so finding a physical copy is a bit tricky. I believe they're out there, but finding one that is in good condition, etc. seems a bit overwhelming right now.

      Yeah, and they have compatibility problems too with some OSs and builds, it's an old game, it deserves to be updated and shown the light of day again <3 come on EA, dust it off and sell it to us all over again xD

      We know you like making money EA... For the amount of work it would take you could earn some pocket money, surely.

      Yeah, I am tempted by those Complete Collection offers on Amazon, but I'm hesitant about paying that much when it's no longer supported and I'm not even sure I would still enjoy it after so long. Of all things it's this vague memory of ladies jumping out of cakes that makes me wonder how much wicked humour was lost between the classic and sims 2.

      I've played all the Sims games except the Sims 1 so I'd love for them to do this. I'd buy it easily.

      I would love for EA to do this! The only expansions I had for TS1 were Hot Date and Vacation so it would be awesome to be able to explore the rest. I will admit though that game was extremely hard! My sims were never ever in a good mood. It was rare to see them in a good mood. My kids would always get sent to military school too haha

      Superstar was the hardest EP for me but was so glad and proud of myself when my self-Sim was finally a superstar at long last!

      But yesss please EA, it'd be awesome to relive all these memories more easily.

      The difficulty was part of the fun. EA seems to have forgotten that in later versions. The game seems to just get easier over time.

      EP's for Sims 1 didn't really make things all that much easier. EP's for Sims 2 and 3 made things a lot easier.

      I would LOVE this to happen! I had all the eps as a kid apart from Livin' Large (Livin' it up) as my mum thought the Vibrating Bed was too rude and inappropriate! (I think I was 9 when it was released!)

      Sadly I doubt this would happen and I'd be even more shocked if it was free. But we can hope! Knowing my luck I'd shell out £100 for it on Amazon only for it to be released a week later for free on Origin!

      You were allowed to get Hot Date and not Livin' Large?!
