Yup, I think i'm going to say this ...probably the best Sims 2 expansion pack. Not that I won all of them, but I do own most and I can say that this one is fantasic. It adds a whole new dimension to what you can do on the Sims 2, from buying a car, to creating your house disco room, to going out partying with other sims all night. This expansion pack has it all.
This is my favorite of the expansion packs, though I just got Free Time, so that might change. On the surface, this expansion pack seems like a combination of House Party and Hot Date from the original Sims, but there is so much more included.
You've still got to deal with Mrs. Crumplebottom and getting downtown to go to the lots there, but now you can meet people who could turn ... read more
Description:In a nutshell:
The second expansion pack for The Sims 2 makes the Sims pleasure your leisure. It adds in a special new neighbourhood called Downtown, packed to the gills with restaurants, bowling alleys, shops, parks, karaoke bars and clubs. You can visit them alone, go in a group, or take that special Sim out for a dream date.TIn a nutshell: The second expansion pack for The Sims 2 makes the Sims pleasure your leisure. It adds in a special new neighbourhood called Downtown, packed to the gills with restaurants, bowling alleys, shops, parks, karaoke bars and clubs. You can visit them alone, go in a group, or take that special Sim out for a dream date.
The lowdown: Whether youre trying to organise a romantic date for two or a boisterous girls night out, your time spent in Downtown is constantly being appraised: commit one faux pas too many, and the timer will run out and youll be left with a deflated Sim and an inflated drinks bills. Your Sim can now scope out a room to check for compatible partners, while other more random additions include a new "pleasure life" aspiration, cars, garages and, rather oddly, vampires.
Most exciting moment:
Engineering the perfect date and getting an extra use out of your new car. Ooh, and indeed, er.
Since you ask:
Not counting online title World of WarCraft, The Sims 2 is the best selling PC game in the world ever.
The bottom line:
Another generously stacked expansion pack for your little computer people. Harrison Dent

You've still got to deal with Mrs. Crumplebottom and getting downtown to go to the lots there, but now you can meet people who could turn out to be the date of your dreams (there are two guys and two girls who actually have a lot of money and belongings that they would bring to your sim's home if they marry into the family), or even befriend (and be bitten by) a vampire. And while you can still call a taxi to take you downtown, you now have a new option--cars!
For most people, cars alone are reason enough to keep this expansio” read more
