The Sims 2: Seasons is the fifth expansion pack in The Sims 2 series of games. It was developed by Maxis, released on March 1, 2007 in North America, and was followed by the European release on March 2, 2007. Aspyr released a Mac OS X port of the game in June of 2007. The included neighborhood, Riverblossom Hills, has new lots, Sims and storyline.

[edit] Music

This expansion pack contains New Age and Jambands genres. The New Age radio station uses all the original songs from The Sims original Build Mode. Simlish versions of songs from popular artists are also contained in the expansion:

  • "Smile" - Lily Allen
  • "Mr. High And Mighty" - Government Mule
  • "Blue Jeans Pizza" - Moe
  • "Zoom" - Tata Young
  • "N" - The Breadbox Band
  • "The Next One" - The Chris McCarty Band
  • "Close Your Eyes" - The String Cheese Incident
  • "When It All Falls Apart" - The Veronicas

Inclusion of real songs by popular artists dates back to The Sims 2: University; they have also been present in the Open For Business and Pets expansion packs.

[edit] Included existing features

Features from the existing expansion packs such as the influence system (available in University), turn ons/turn offs (available from Nightlife upwards), lifetime wants (available from University upwards), pranks (available in University), fury (available in Nightlife), Mrs. Crumplebottom (also available in Nightlife) and talent badges (available from Open For Business) are available. Although the talent badges included in Open For Business are not available in the Seasons expansion pack, players can use them if both Open For Business and Seasons are installed.
