A gaming question!


Question Posted Saturday January 13 2007, 12:31 pm

I want to buy Sims 2 really soon...maybe today or tomorrow!

Last time I went to buy it they said it might not play on laptops..due to some crap! Later in the year I went on vacation and my cousin had it playing on her computer (laptop also!)

My question is does it work on laptops? My laptop is a dell and is a windows XP btw

yep, it will work. a computer is a computer whether it is a laptop or a desktop. and i have sims 2 installed at my grandparent's laptop and my computer in my house and they work great! maybe you were confused between mac and windows, because the same CDs don't work for both of tbem, so that means that the mac version is released later on. hope i helped!

Yes, I have this game and have played it both on desktops and laptops, so it will work. The only thing you may have a problem with (which is probably why it won't work for some) is not having enough space. It takes up a lot of space on your computer, so check to see how much space it takes (on the back), and make sure you have thta amount of space left on your laptop.

it will work. the question is, how well will it work.

I have a computer that is about a year old. it can handle sims 2. but it occasionally has trouble. you will almost definitely have turn all the quality settings in the game to minimum. if you have less then a gig or ram on your laptop, you will have trouble. if you have enough, you should be fine.

It does,your computer just has to be able to handle it.Just check out the specifications on the back of the game and compare them to your computer to be sure.
