Fun:   
I love this latest expansion pack,the new town twinbrook looks very realistic and the fog and swampy areas are a really nice touch as it gives the place a mysterious creepy feel which has never been done in the sims before,i like the new laundry option even though i wasnt sure about it before and visiting the laundromat to socialise while i wash my clothes,all the new careers are awesome and take many hours of fun play to reach level 10 with many hilarious adventures along the way,the new simbots are adorable and alot of fun to control and play with and being able to decorate your sims with tattoos is wicked,overall this is a great pack that has really spiced up my game with alot more things to do and it is way better than world adventures in my opinion even though that pack was ok for a few weeks,this one will keep me entertained for alot longer!

I couldnt wait to get this and since it has arrived have played it almost non stop. Ive had no problems with crashing at all and it saves fine. Theres a few new haircuts, but no extra clothes other than uniforms for the jobs. A few extra house decorations but not many. However been able to play the sims whilst they are at work is great, the only downside is that if you have two sims with jobs it seems difficult to be able to give them both equal attention. You can now also sculpt things which is good. Overall I'm glad I bought this game, just need to put a timer on to stop the hours passing by too quickly.

Fun:   
After hours of gameplay I realised EA had come up with great ideas to further your sims careers. Instead of sitting at a house view of your sims you can now follow them to work and depending on what career you choose you can follow them into the building also.

In these career professions you can also take the 'evil' side by stealing things from the sims houses that you're meant to be helping. Or leaving sims trapped or on fire.

However good these perks may be though, there are always downlfalls. Game play with one sim starts off amazing but tires quickly when you cannot have more than one sim on your lot with the new professions provided. I tried bringing up a new born baby with two parent sims. One of my parent sims was a fire fighter and unless you are constantly there with them when they're on a call out, they start up conversations, take showers, watch tv or just come home. I personally find this a BIG FAULT. I and others I have spoken to have found this almost impossible to have a normal family sim life with these new careers.

As for the new 'stuff' they include, there's not much, a few odd bit's of furniture. A few new changes off clothes and maybe a few new hairstyles. Is it worth the money?? I would say.... No.. But maybe if it was closer to 15 pounds rather than 25, then yes.

But I'll let you be the judge of it.. All I'd say is that they NEED to bring out Pet's again! (I'd rather save my money for that expansion pack instead)
