The Sims 2 has the same concept as its predecessor. Players control their Sims in various activities and form relationships in a manner similar to real life. The Sims 2, like its predecessor, The Sims, does not have a defined final goal; gameplay is open-ended. Sims have life goals, wants and fears, the fulfillment of which can produce both positive or negative outcomes. All Sims age, and can live to 90 sim days depending on the degree to which their aspirations are fulfilled. The Sims 2 builds on its predecessor by allowing Sims to age through six stages of life and incorporating a 3D graphics engine. Although gameplay is not linear, storylines exist in the game's pre-built neighborhoods. Pleasantview is based 25 years after the town in the original The Sims. Strangetown's storyline is based on the supernatural, and is loosely connected with Pleasantview. Veronaville's characters are based on Shakespearian characters

How many FPS on high?
PC Specs
You will probably have 30-60FPS on High, your graphics card is very powerful, and your CPU isn't bad either, I don't even understand why you ask. xD
PC Specs
Is Win 7 supporting this game ? :)

Yes but not the base game. You need an expansion pack higher than university to run this game.

Not at native res because the game is a bit old and don't support ultra hd resolution.

Hi folks, my PC and graphics card can run this on the highest settings, but I get a black rectangle under the sim. Is this because of my GFX or the game itself?
