If you are running PC Emulation, it might work.

Josh, is PC Emulation a different program than Virtual PC?

If it's not, I'm just here to say that because the program has to emulate everything-like ram and processor-it's not as fast as an actual PC. I thought I read a statement on the Microsoft website that said it was not good for 3D Gaming.

TLo109: The Sims 2 will be coming out for Mac. When will it be out? One of the Maxis guys said November in a chat :) If I were you I'd just wait the extra time.

Hope that helps,
John

Yeah, running the sims 2 in Virtual PC *probably* wouldnt work, since the video card it emulates is barely VESA 2 compliant, and the sims 2 probably would flat-out refuse to install it ;(

Though, like JohnEZ said, there will be a mac version, you'll just need to wait for Aspyr to clear everything with EA and then start porting the code :)
