This is actually *illegal*. So no one will probably do this here.

Anyone else's number won't work because they'll be wanting to play their game too. You could google it.

yeah, thats what im trying to do, cuz i bought my game like a couple years ago but i threw out the box and book, and i uninstalled it off the computer. I dunno how u could find the serial number for the one u have. Only reason it is illegal is that people can make copies of the game, sucks, i dont want to waste 40 bucks on something I already own lol.

Did you register your game with EA? Then they'd have the number and you could get it from them.

The reason it is illegal is exactly because of that. They aren't giving away their work for free. Wink

I dont remember, I had it loaded on here since 2005. I deleted ita few mths back when i was cleaning this computer out. I know when i first loaded the game i had to put a serial number in, but i highly doubt i did the online register thing i always tend to skip over those grrrrr. So i dont know i guess i am out of luck. Maybe jason will buy me a new one for valentines but I dont think they sell the one i have here, it has like 4 disks with it. Its the sims complete collection.

Im trying to look up online if theres a way to retreive the serial number, be nice to find something. I guess cuz its old thats prob why they dont have it at the px here they have all these neat expansion packs and stuff with all these extras.

Someone was telling me that the wii fries your tv, i dunno if its just cuz the germany thing with different voltages or if it happens in the states as well, i really wanted a wii but not if it is gonna fry my tv. I found a place to get the serial number but my cd's are corrupt, go figure theyve been floating around for like 3 yrs lol. Oh well Sad, maybe with taxes we can get a wii, I cant seem to find one around here anywhere, they sell wii games and wii accessories but not the actual game console.

That's really interesting, I've not heard of Wii's ruining tv's. Nintendo was SO good to us when our house burned down. I called them and sent in my melted Wii, they sent me a brand new one free of charge!!! So I <3 them forever ^^

Wii does not fry your tv. Maybe in Germany with the different voltage... but our Wii is hooked up to our HDTV and it looks fabulous. No worries about frying anything.
