List of Memories

The Sims 2 Memories
Memories in the Sims 2 are basic forms of storytelling of the Sims who inhabit the neighborhood. Depending on what happened in a Sim's lifetime will cause either a positive or negative memory. However unlike in The Sims 3, memories are always automatic and can never be removed without a witch's spell or hacking.

The Sims 3
Unlike The Sims 2, memories did not appear in the base game. They were re-introduced with the patch after Generations was introduced. The system has been upgraded and instead of using an icon to display a memory, the camera will take an in-game photo of the Sim and show a dialog box informing the player what has happened. If the camera is not on the same lot the Sim receiving the memory, the memory will recieve a placeholder with a gray background. If the Sim is not in the active household or is an NPC, the memory will recieve a watermarked background representing if the memory is positive, negative, or neutral.
