About The Sims 2 - In The Sims 2, players pick one of five aspirations that will take them through an entire lifetime, from the cradle to the grave. Players will be able to choose from Popularity, Fortune, Family, Knowledge and Romance which will determine how each Sim will lead their life. With these aspirations, players can fulfill their Sims¹ wants while avoiding their worst fears. Every choice that is made has a relevant and dramatic effect on the life of a Sim. Will players give them a long successful existence or leave their life in shambles?

More life-like Sims, all-new aspirational gameplay, and the ground-breaking addition of genetics, with the DNA of Sims passed down through generations, gives players a more vivid, realistic, and in-depth Sims experience. All of this takes place in a new amazingly realistic 3-D world.

Players will be able to unleash their creativity as they generate their own Sims with the new Create-A-Sim. They can select from a wide-range of facial structures, makeup, clothes and more. Plus, players can build dream homes and design neighborhoods with new building, design and home furnishing options. With The Sims players for the first time ever can make films with the all-new movie-making feature. The possibilities are endless.
