Enjoy all the fun and creativity of The Sims 2 in The Sims 2: Double Deluxe. Create your own houses, neighborhoods, Sims, and family dynasties… then watch it all come to life! Will your Sims experience the rewards of a life well lived? Or will you choose to neglect their needs, indulge their fears, and see what happens? As your Sims’ family grows, you’ll see them pass on genes from one generation to the next.

The Sims 2 is the first entirely-new generation of The Sims, the ground-breaking game that allowed players to create and control people. The Sims 2 challenges you to direct the journey of your Sims’ lives as they grow from infancy through childhood, teenage life and adulthood. Starting with a personality that you give them (or that they inherit from their parents), your Sims will develop in unique ways based on your choices and influence. As they progress through life, your Sims will collect memories which shape who they are, what options they have and how they behave. These experiences can have a short or long-term effect on relationships between family members and friends. Experiences between Sims when they are children can affect their relationships as teens and adults. Your Sims can have casual friendships or make life-long enemies.

The Sims 2: Double Deluxe also contains The Sims 2: Nightlife Expansion Pack, The Sims 2: Celebration Stuff Pack and a bonus DVD. Take your Sims downtown in their new cars to all the after-dark hot spots! Whether they’re dancing ‘til dawn on a guys’ night out, romancing that special someone by candlelight, or throwing strikes at the bowling alley, it will be a night to remember. Then host the social event of the season with The Sims 2: Celebration Stuff Pack. Host an elegant wedding, decorate their house and garden to throw the ultimate fiesta, or throw the biggest birthday bash with all-new items including birthday cakes, party balloons, and more.

The Sims 2: Nightlife takes Sims into the night to explore all of their favorite after-dark activities. Players can either head out and discover their love lives or have a crazy night out with friends. With the new dating gameplay, players will see if their Sims have chemistry with others which will determine their romantic fate. The newest addition to the game includes the brand new pleasure seeker aspiration allowing players to explore a life filled with unforgettable dates, endless nights of dancing and fine dining. Make your Sims nightlife fantasy a reality with over 125 new objects including a DJ booth, poker table and all you need to design the ultimate nightclub and VIP lounge.

With The Sims 2: Celebration Stuff, your Sims can now celebrate in style with this fun collection of furniture, party fashions, and décor items. Host an elegant wedding with dazzling gowns, swanky tuxedos, and breathtaking dresses for the entire bridal party. Make every moment magical for your Sims with fabulous centerpieces and even a floral wedding arch. Decorate their house and garden to throw the ultimate fiesta and serve hot meals straight off the new grill. Invite the neighbors over for an evening event and set the table with linens and tea lights to create the perfect ambiance. Or throw the ultimate birthday bash with all-new items including birthday cakes, party balloons, and more. Host the social event of the season and celebrate with your Sims.
