  • Summary: Experiencing all four seasons for the first time – from seasonal activities to all-new outerwear for unpredictable weather – provides a whole new level of excitement for your Sims. Not only will your Sims experience the seasons changing in winter, spring, summer and fall, but each season will deliver unique benefits, impacting your Sims relationships, mood, skills, careers and more. And be sure to dress your Sims appropriately for the weather -- freezing, sunburn and other unexpected weather effects can occur. Whether you're strengthening family ties in winter, letting romance bloom in spring, deepening the bonds of friendship in summer, or fast-tracking your career in fall, the seasons have a whole new impact on your Sims' lives throughout the year. Avoid the heat; take a dip in the pool and play Marco Polo. Go skating on an ice rink; have snowball fights, build snowmen or make snow angels. Each season unfolds differently delivering stunning visuals of weather effects and seasonal changes including snow, rain, hail, lightning and more ensuring a unique gameplay experience for many seasons to come. Show Off Your Sims' Green Thumb; make your garden blossom and reap the rewards. And as an added bonus, crops that harvest at the peak time can produce varying juices that reap special benefits, from love potions and energy boosts to cold fighters and smart juices. Time to drink up! [Electronic Arts]… Expand

    Sure it looks the same, sounds the same, and plays about the same, but it's a whole new world out there, a world where nature reigns supreme and your sims must bow to its forces or suffer the consequences.

    There is no question that the previous expansion packs (especially "University" and "Pets") wore out their welcome after a while. However, you'll be playing with the effects of Seasons probably for the rest of your life – or if/until a "The Sims 3" comes out.

    It adds seasonal weather, crop farming, and some new group activities that can actually make the challenging gameplay of Sims 2 a more relaxed pastime. For players looking for a slower-paced experience that doesn't require you to keep track of the ins and outs of an in-game business--or constantly watch a hyperactive pet--this is a good thing.

    The Sims 2 Seasons is a great game to play. It is appearantly Maxis best and last expansion pack for the sims 2. I enjoyed playing this game a lot, I found it more interesting than nightlife, more entertaining than Pets and OFB, and a lot more funner than University. My Favorite season in the game was spring. I thought it was very amusing experimenting with hail and thunder storms. Winter would come second. It seemed to me that Maxis made winter to be the highlight of the seasons. As there are more objects and events for the winter than there is for any other season. But anyway, the seasons are a great add-on for the sims 2, I feel like my sims 2 collection is finally complete.… Expand

    Thank you Seasons! This expansion offers so much that I was hoping for, and so much more that I didn't expect! Great fun, the snow is so cool! (I want to use all caps there!). You should see the pool that I built on my lot, and snowball fights are the best. Thank you Seasons!… Expand
