This is, so far... The best soundtrack of the whole The Sims' saga ever! In my opinion at least…

[@ムネタ]

You haven't heard Sims 1 soundtrack!

[@rayray3351]

Indeed

[@nonamesorry7135]

EXTREMELY valid opinion

[@boredwithadhd]

@@ムネタ i have and i prefer this. the sims 1 soundtrack is a bit too 60s retro esque. not that that's a bad thing. I just prefer the y2k aesthetic that the sims 2 gives off.

Still with me after all these years. 😭💙🎇

This song sounds like the 2000s so much. So nostalgic

[@kameza]

This song still gives me goosebumps after almost two decades when I listen to the intro. I miss those days so much! The Sims franchise is not the same anymore, there was so much love put into this game back then.

[@SoapyTurtles]

I find it hilarious that the same guy (Junkie XL is his name) who made this fun little Sims 2 theme song has composed music for huge movies and productions! and even still, this is his best song! (;

[@Nekogitsune]

isnt he the one who composed for alita, deadpool and sonic? whoa this guy sure is a legend

[@Linkonpark100]

He even did Blade.

[@Neoproxy_]

EA liked him a lot i guess because he also has musics in fifa and need for speed

I had no clue Junkie did this track, he's one of my favorites in the genre

[@FabiaNTheOcer]

at the beginning, i just want to cry. it reminds me when i was a little kid. life was easy. and i loved to play sims 2. i always played it on my xbox. as you may know, this is the theme for the sims 2 console. .... i just love making houses there and dress the ppl up. i just want to go back in time and play it. i remember i played it with my brother, and we did a ''restaurant'', where we just cooked for random sims xD

[@user89389]

Sims 2 music makes me so happy. All the happy memories are coming back at once, of the fun times I had playing TS2 without a single care in the world. :') Man, I would pay some serious money for a sims 2 remaster. Just make it more stable, run on new PCs, correct a few things... No need to add extra content. I would buy it in a heartbeat.

[@reykt6185]

It would be great actually, but the fact, that this doesn't even need a full remaster, graphic or gameplay updates to be fun and enjoybale is outstanding. I started to play Sims 2 couple years ago, dunno, why I didn't try earlier, but this game still gave me much more emotions than others games comes out nowadays

[@user89389]

@@reykt6185 Exactly. Even now most of the issues are easily eliminated by changing settings and installing a few mods. If they just applied those changes to the game, fixed the corruption problems of the default neighbourhoods and released it, it would be perfectly good to go. Pretty incredible.

[@giuseppeaparo6762]

Thank you for all the feelings and immense emotions you gave me, over the years of my childhood and adolescence... In my heart, my sims were born, lived, loved, suffered and died as if they were real... I remember every single name, face, and all the stories of their lives. I loved them as friends, as relatives, as my children. Thanks The Sims 2, for all this ❤

pov : it's 2006, you're just went back from elementary school, it's a hot day so you pick some OJ from the fridge, turn on your small crt tv, and put the sims 2 disc on the ps2 tray and turn it on, the sounds of crt tv starting pierce through your ears until finally you hear that playstation 2 startup sound a silver ea logo pass through the screen with that *boom* sound, and finally this song starts with two people arguing, a man and woman in front of their tv

Best song from The Sims 2!

[@ampdabeast34dc]

way better music than sims 3!

[@dfm5000]

Makes you wonder do the people who composed this song and sim city 4 still work at maxis.

[@Mrappelthe20]

so true

[@eyeintheskysi]

dfm5000 Tom Holkenborg, also known as Junkie XL, composed the soundtrack to Mad Max: Fury Road. So, I don't know if he's still doing anything for maxis or other sim games, but he's gone up in the world.

[@Ichigo6798]

He was already high up, Big Sounds Of The Drags is probably one of the most recognizable Big Beat albums out there

[@soneil12]

Way better game too. I played the first couple of expansions of Sims 3 and then just went back to Sims 2. Sims 3 became a very different kind of game compared to 1 & 2 - and not in a good way.

[@15BTNH]

Takes me back to when I first got double deluxe

[@twotailedavenger]

Ahhh, remember when EA's corporate fuckery hadn't corrupted the Sims yet?

[@higherquality]

always has been tho

[@TabernadoDani]

It has always been tho, yeah 🤣 The Sims 1 and 2 were just easier to deal with because we were innocent and it wasn't us working to pay for every expansion 😂 At least I assume this to be true for most of us, that grew up with it :D Then with 3 came work and all that and yeah... Then shit got expensive 😅
