eh~ There are a variety of requirements that have to be met and can fail for various reasons.

GPU has to support having DirectX12. CPU must be 8th Gen if Intel regardless of TPM version. And of course, as you mentioned, it has to be full TPM 2.0

It’s not about people trashing/selling old ThinkPads because Win10 support ended?

ooh, do you have any details? I don’t think I heard about this one.

Nonono, you misunderstand. They want $30 for allowing you to play The Sims 2.

none of those are DLC

I keep seeing “have all DLC” but they seem to be conflating Expansion/Stuff Packs with actual Downloadable Content.

Does The Sims 1 contain all the Maxis website stuff? Is the downloadable Elle Woods no longer lost media?

Does the Sims 2 include all the downloadables from The Exchange? The downloads from Sims Store? The downloadable pre-order bonuses? The downloadable Christmas pack?

Here’s the stuff I was able to find. I think I’m missing some Command & Conquer crossover stuff, as well as some celebrity NPCs. NPC_SarahMcLachlan was probably the hardest to find.

Some of these were DLC for the base game that was later added via expansion pack, but it should all be official EA/Maxis as far as I am aware:

Yeah, I went through the hunt about 3 months ago. MANY of those fan sites are long-gone, and archive.org couldn’t save them because they put the downloads behind a login.

There were about 2 good archive locations, but both were incomplete. I got about 96% of the official stuff though.

They gave people who could prove they had Sims 2 the Ultimate Collection on Origin and… you are correct. It was missing content. I see no reason that it won’t still be true.

Heck, for The Sims 1 there was a ton of official stuff that you had to download from Maxis’s website. Some of it is lost media.

SuperStationᵒⁿᵉ is designed to play PS1 games, but the hardware fully supports the MiSTer FPGA platform. If you want to play games from another system, simply load up a core. All without needing to wait for a jailbreak.

Looks like it might not be so limited.
