Thisit is based on the previous expansion for ''[[The Sims]]'', ''[[The Sims: Hot Date]]''. It was released for Windows on September 13, 2005 for(North WindowsAmerica) and September 16, 2005 (European Union, Australia and MarchNew 27Zealand), 2006and for Mac OS X on March 27, 2006.

''The Sims 2: Nightlife'', thecenters secondon expansionthe packnew for[[Downtown ''(The Sims 2'', was released on September 13, 2005 (USA and Canada) and September 16, 2005 (European Union, Australia and New Zealand). The expansion pack centers on the new downtown|Downtown]] area, which has various activities, such as bowling, karaoke, dining and dancing, as well as a photo booth, and includes a dating mini-game which allows the player to engage in their Sim's relationships in greater depth.
 
==Official description==
==Description==
[[File:The Sims 2 Nightlife LogoThe_Sims_2_Nightlife_Logo_(Original).png|100px|left|link=90px]]
''Your Sims are on the town hitting all the swanky hot spots. Whether they're dancing until dawn, romancing that special someone, or striking out at the bowling alley, it'll be an unforgettable night! Let your Sims loose to enjoy their favorite after-dark activities as they pursue a life of pleasure. Determine their love lives as you discover the chemistry between Sims. Will their life aspirations and personalities click or clash? It could be the beginning of a stormy affair or a dating disaster. Ready for fun and romance? Bring on the night!''
 
==Features==
The game is reminiscent of ''[[The Sims: Hot Date]]'' and ''[[The Sims: House Party]]'', which were expansion packs for the original ''The Sims'' game, and which focused on new social interactions and locations for Sims to visit, such as a romantic restaurant and Night Club. ''Nightlife'' follows in a similar theme.
 
===New Features===
New additions include [[inventories]], new interactions, and over 125 new objects. [[NPC]]s that a player's Sim dates can now leave gifts or hate letters at the Sim's home, depending on the success of particular dates. Some of the new NPCs include party DJs, a [[Gypsy Matchmaker]], [[Mrs. Crumplebottom]], and [[Vampire|Grand Vampires]].

Some of the new NPCs include party DJs, a [[Gypsy Matchmaker]], [[Mrs. Crumplebottom]], and [[Grand Vampire]]s.
 
===New Aspirations===
''Nightlife'' also adds a new aspiration. The [[Pleasure]] seeking aspiration is assigned in exactly the same way as any of the other 5 aspirations. Sims with the Pleasure Seeking aspiration crave enjoyment in many different ways, whilst they fear embarrassment. Pleasure Sims may receive wants such as "juggle" and "jump on lounge." ''Nightlife'' has also introduced a new reward object titled the ReNuYu-Senso-Orb which will enable any Sim to have their aspiration changed at any time. However, this object can fail, like all other aspiration reward objects. If that happens, the Sim using it at the time will then have the [[Grilled Cheese]] aspiration, and normal wants will be superseded with the urge to eat grilled cheese sandwiches.
 
===Drivable Cars===
In ''Nightlife'', Sims can own their own [[car]]s instead of relying on the carpool. There are several models and colors available. In addition, driveways (mandatory for any residential lot to accommodate a car) and garages can be built into the Sim's lot.

===New Swimming Pool===
Also, it is possible to design new, more customized swimming pools. Included is a new diagonal shaped swimming pool tool, which can be used to create extensive shapes not previously possible. However, the pool ladder and diving board may only be attached to pool tiles square on to the lot.

===New Neighborhood Features===
The lot mode has been expanded in ''Nightlife'', so that it is possible to view the neighborhood from a lot. Players may leave one lot to play another without having to go back to the neighborhood mode. It is still impossible, however, for a Sim to invite himself or herself to another lot.

==New gameplay mechanics==
As with previous expansion packs, not only does ''The Sims 2: Nightlife'' come packed with more content, but also adds something to the overall gameplay of the original game. New aspects of gameplay that are added to ''Nightlife'' are:
* Sims can now go out on [[Dating|dates]]

==Dating mini game==

{{Main|Dating}}
Sims can now ask someone that they are interested in on a date and if the person accepts then a meter will appear and the player needs to build it up unless you want a bad date (which can be done by [[Affair|getting caught cheating]] or by cheating using [[boolprop testingcheatsenabled true]] &mdash; shift-click on a Sim and click on set score).

The date can have a score from Dream Date to Horrible. This works off of each Sims wants so fulfilling wants of both daters causes the meter to climb higher. The more fears fulfilled the lower the meter. At the end, depending on how high the date meter is, the player's Sim may get a gift the next day of a bouquet of flowers or a note. If the date went horribly then they'll get a stinky letter, or a flaming bag of poo, orbut sometimesthen nothing.Somethere's timesthat Mrs.Crumblebottomsmall willpossibility comewhere andyou willdon't startget toanything fightat with youall.
 
During the dating mini game, [[Mrs. CrumpleBottom]] is considered an obstacle for Sims. When Sims perform romantic interactions or [[WooHoo]] with Mrs. CrumpleBottom nearby, she will smack the Sims with her purse, lowering the date meter.
