The Sims 1 & 2 Re-released by EA under the title of The Sims: Legacy Collection

The Sims 1 & 2 is back in the Legacy Collection. It includes the original games alone with all DLC. It just released recently. But I'm a bit confused about the versions available. I thought this was a two pack set that included the Sims 1 and 2 along with all DLC. But according to the EA site, there are two listings: 

The Sims - https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-25th-anniv-edition

The Sims 2 - https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-2-25th-anniv-edition

I thought this was a collection with both games included, but it looks like they just re-released both games separately the first game for $20, and the second for $30. Both versions include all the DLC that released for them, or so I believe from the descriptions on the site. Also it looks to only be available on PC via Steam, Windows, Epic Games and the EA launcher.

Nope - not getting it. I love Sims but I'm not allowing EA to rip me off again.

It’s great to see The Sims 1 and 2 making a comeback! However, I understand the confusion about the separate listings. It seems like EA opted to release them individually instead of as a bundle. It’s awesome they included all the DLC, but a combined collection would’ve been more convenient.

Somehow, I can see EA absolutely screwing this up.
