No. Sims 2 is exactly the same as Sims except Sims 2 is newer, more powerful, has better graphics and whole new stuff. The same goes with Sims 3, which is the newest possible Sims, which is also very different from the Sims and the Sims2. But, if you want to install:
-Sims 2 Nightlife
-Sims 2 Seasons
-Sims 2 Bon Voyage
-Sims 2 University
-Sims 2 Open for Business
-Sims 2 Apartments
-Sims 2 Pet Stories
-Sims 2 Freetime
Or:
-Sims 2 Holiday Stuff
-Sims 2 Family Fun Stuff
-Sims 2 Glamour Life
-Sims 2 Teen Style Stuff
-Sims 2 Happy Holidays Stuff (it's different from Sims 2 Holiday Stuff)
-Sims 2 H&M Stuff
-Sims 2 Celebration! Stuff
-Sims 2 Kitchen & Bath Interior Design Stuff
-Sims 2 IKEA Home Stuff
-Sims 2 Mansion a & Garden Stuff
If you want to install them, then you need the Sims 2 Game, or the Sims 2 Double Deluxe NOTE: The Sims 2 Double Deluxe already has Sims 2 Nightlife and the Sims 2 Celebration! Stuff.

What sims do you have to have to play all the other sims games?

Not sure which Sims you mean, do you mean the original game, Sims 1? You need the first game The Sims installed and then you can install expansion packs. It is recommended by Maxis that you install The Sims first (expansions wont work anyway without it) and Makin Magic last.
