Does Sims 2 work on laptops? I want to get Sims 2, but when I was reading about different Sims games, I read about The Sims Stories which said it could be played on a laptop. I gathered this meant other Sims games couldn't be played on a laptop. Do you know if Sims 2 and it's extension packs can be used on a laptop?
Thanks, xxx

Yes, Sims 2 can be installed onto a laptop. I play mine on my laptop and I believe I also have three extension packs installed as well. Your laptop must meet some requirements for the game to be functional though.
Here is a good link to tell you what your laptop needs to have (including a link to test your computer for compatibility):

It depends on the laptop. It works on newer ones.
The reason it won't work on older ones, is the graphics card. I had this problem, only with a desktop, and that's the main reason the Sims 2 doesn't work on various laptops and desktops.
So, if you have a laptop with Windows XP, or Vista, it whsould work. But if you're running like, Windows 98, I don't think it will work =/
Good luck!

I don't see why there is a reason a Sims game can't be played on the laptop. If it has sufficient hard disk space for installation and a decent processor, which anything bought in the last 4 years will have, then it should work just fine. If anything just make sure it is compatible with Vista if that is what you are using, but if you have XP and at least a Pentium 4 proccessor (check this by right clicking on the My Computer icon), then it should run be able to work. Hope that helped. ]
