Top 40 Games From 2004

16. The Sims 2

However many copies you think The Sims 2 sold, you’re probably underestimating. Over 100 million copies were sold through 2008 alone, going to show that a well-detailed fake world was the perfect escape from those in the real one. The steps up in customization, 3D texturing and just how real to life the game was turned out to be just what the public wanted. That, and comic silliness in a funny, made-up Simlish language.
