In ''[[The Sims 2]]'', phones are white-ish tan and can be either table phones or wall phones. |
In ''[[The Sims 2]]'', phones are white-ish tan and can be either table phones or wall phones. Phones are now truly cordless, unlike ''The Sims'', and Sims can and will walk around while talking on the phone. A Sim who wanders too far from the phone's base may put the handset down instead of hanging it up; if this happens, the player can click on the handset and select "Hang Up" to tell a Sim to hang it back up. |

Sims can talk to other Sims on the phone, and other Sims may call to talk to a specific household member. This has been improved over what was possible in ''The Sims''; players can now use the "Change Topic" interaction to affect what the Sims talk about, and phone conversations can have more than a minimal effect on the Sims' relationship with one another. The phone can be used to invite Sims over, and even to throw [[parties]]. ''[[The Sims 2: Pets|Pets]]'' added an 'Invite household' option, which will not appear when calling a [[Townie]] or a Sim who lives alone. When using this option, the player will be presented with a dialog which shows all other members of the called Sim's household, except for babies and toddlers, even if the caller hasn't met them. Much like ''The Sims'', a Sim needed to live in a household with at least one phone in order to be called, or had to have a cell phone in their inventory. {{confirm|Sims who live in [[apartment]]s can be called even if they don't have a phone.}} |
