Ok this was right when sims 3 was in the swing of things --and origin had bust out with making you use them more.
So I was trying to get my sims 2 working but keep getting that dreaded message, so I call origin IT dept.
After awhile of them try but not able to help, because they said they phased out sims 2 they could not help me.
I went off and asked them was that there gimmick to have people pay for sims2 and then force them to buy the new
games, and what about the sims 2 disc I paid for I also told them ( gave them the link ) I had a sims2 site so I
needed to get in the game and that what about all the money spent on the discs --was I to just count that up as a
loss ?
I also sent a email to corp/EA saying basic I thought this whole thing sucked for Sims 2 and that they were ripping
die hard fans that will not pay for other game if this was the way we were to be treated. ( remember at that time
sims2 and sims3 were completely different unlike 3 and 4 ) and there should be something done.
So they apologised and linked me every one of the sims 3 games to my origin account, and said they will look
further into the matter. Months later they give us all the sims 2 free on the origin account.
And that is how I have all the Sims 3 for free. The say the squeeky wheel gets oiled LOL
However, the irony is I don't like sims 3 lol and after a month I gave up on playing it
and I found a link on you tube showing you how to still get into your discs/game- the sims 2 game by bypassing that
dreaded message ----so on my old computer I can still play my discs games.
and I have the ultimate on my new big screen 23" all in on which is great ---it's like looking at the sims on TV lol
but sadly I don't get to play or create or enjoy the sims on the large screen due to school and RL (SMH)
London
ok at times I tend to get long winded sorry
