I love the little things so much. If you look closely ts2 has attention to detail everywhere. They actually move the chess pieces, slices accurately disappear from the pizza, the glass refrigerator doors at the grocery actually fog up when opened etc. On topic of the chess games, I do believe they are real chess games. If you watch them, an entire chess games will play out in front of you.

I also enjoy that you can add your own music to the stereo, your own videos to the TV and your own paintings your Sims can choose to paint. I'm sure there's other things I'm forgetting about that you can super customize but, I always thought that was really neat.

I forgot you could customize those things!

Honestly my favorite thing is that 22 years later it's still fun.

My favorite thing though is probably the base game premade Sims and the chaotic and dramatic stories they come with. I've played so many different versions of their lives and I just enjoy it so much.
