Excellent Buy! [Posted on 2007-03-08] This game is a MUST HAVE for any Sims lovers! With all the expansion packs mixed into one game, you'll have hours of fun! There's ALOT of options! I'm hooked and I LOVE the Sims :) It is working perfectly on my computer too. I'm running a MAC OS 10.3.9 with 140GB Total Memory, 1 GB DDR SDRAM, and 1.25GHZ processor speed. Hope that helps!
Lots of fun for a great value [Posted on 2007-03-19] Wow! the origional sims plus all 8 expansion packs on 1 dvd-rom for only $40! Great choice for those who have older systems and cannot play Sims 2. If u have not yet caught Sims fever, or didnt shell out for the expansion packs when they came out, this is for u. I had been playing origional Sims for the last couple of years, and really enjoy being able to give them pets and let them explore downtown. Even if u already have the origional and a couple of expansion packs, u can buy this 1 and sell your other disks.
Amazing! [Posted on 2007-05-14] This is by far the most exciting game I have ever played. Although some of the new additions like superstar town and magic town can be a little confusing if you're used to plain-old sims, all the new choices are so great. I've been having a blast with it and the only downside is that I can't seem to stop!
Great fun, but Mac owners beware when upgrading! [Posted on 2007-10-01] In case mac owners don't know, if you own Mac OS X and are running Tiger or higher you will have a problem in the "Create a Sim" screen. What will happen is that when you switch through outfits, the last outfit won't leave the screen and all them will overlap over each other making it hard to see them, the same will happen when the sims change clothes in the game and when you want to buy a pet at the pet stores.
It is not the worse thing in the world and will not crash your game, but is very annoying and should be known before anyone spends their money. I'm using Panther. Anything before Tiger is fine. JUST BE WARNED!
After buying just a few of the expansion packs, I FINALLY decided to get the Complete Collection only after buying an external hard drive. I don't know about anyone else, but there was no way almost 4 gigs would fit on my G4 imac. Although, even on the harddrive the game does slow, but is still playable. I am often surprised that I can stay Downtown, Studio Town, etc. so long. That is a real treat.
Bad side? There is too much to do. I have yet to do anything in Magic town nor Vacation, and the idea of being able to renovate all this and add my own touch is overwhelming.
I had plenty of problems previously with my other expansions, and crashing was one of them. I don't know why, but objects that I had before, then put them back in my game a second or third time (after needing to reinstall) made the game crash. Frequently, the sofas and paintings just would not pull into the game and when they did it crashed when I tried to save. Now, everything pulls into the game and saves with no problem.
I think that having all the expansion packs made the game more stable--for me and possibly for macs in general, I don't know, but I know that all the packs seemed to help with the crashing.
Overall, there is little cons to owning this. One thing I will say is that Non-Unleashed fans will tire quickly of stray pets wondering around the lots and into the house.
Still, worth the money to have all 7 packs on one disc, just make sure you have the hard drive space-- and spare for downloads-- and you'll be fine.
great and quick arrival [Posted on 2008-03-18] It was great and you are so quick in mailing out the items. I have bought a few things from you and expect to buy more because of price and speedy delivery.
