Is the CD required to play the game or can you load it on your pc's hard drive?

You have to install the game on your hard drive so it can save your progress, but you will still need the CD to play. Since my kids leave fingerprints on everything, I made a back-up copy of the CD and I let them use that in the computer.

It's a number of discs for installation. But I'm not sure, at least for pc, if they're selling them with the new free to play. Haven't seen it at Wal-Mart in a month. But if they do it gives an activation code so you can play the game

No, but you do require a hard-drive (7.5G required).If you're having problems with this game I'm not surprised. I'm dealing with issues here also. It refuses to load the installation disc and gives the message that there are "corrupted files"?? I thought it was new so not sure what's going on. Haven't contacted Amazon regarding the problem, but if yours is doing the same thing we should have this looked into. There is an after-market stamp on the wrapping that says "Disc made in Mexico"??

Sure. Most games use the hard disk. I know some required the disk to make sure you owned the game.

You would have to pirate the game or use a peripheral CD drive. Check the running specifications of The Sims game you're trying to play - the laptop may not be powerful enough

I purchased the CDs and they had issues loading into my PC. I wound up returning and purchasing the downloadable version. No need for cds anymore!

No, it loaded into my computer, the icon for the game is on my desktop so whenever I want to play the games, I just click the icon....really enjoy these games!!

Yes, essentially the disc is there only for the installation. All launching and play of the game would be from Steam.

Installing a game, Idk, but I do know from experience that it is not formated like a normal hard drive is, and will need someone with advanced programing experience for some features to work.

Sort of, it's a disk and it'll install the base game (you'll need to have a steam account and be connected to the internet to have the game added to your account) but you'll need to download updates as well. I hope this was helpful!

It comes in a CD. If you don't have a cd drive I reccomend buying it off amazon or steam (a gaming website) and downloading it directly to your computer from there.

yes you would need the disc to play if you have no other slot games installed from wms slots.

You can play directly from the disk. There are three discs, one for each game

You don't need the CD in computer when you play the game. You can copy the CD in your hard drive, or start game from CD then you can take the CD out while continue playing. Please let me know if any further questions.

Can this game be downloaded to the computer so you don't have to use the disk every time?
