More stuff! 28 Oct 2010
Fun:   
Having read the reviews I wasn't expecting much, however I was pleasantly surprised.
New stuff which wasn't any more expensive than buying from the online store and, most importantly, new gym kit! I'm so sick and tired of having one treadmill.
I wouldn't say it's the most fabulous 'stuff' pack ever, but it does have some nifty new bits and it made my legacy game a bit more fun.
The only thing that worried me was the possibility of the install crashing my computer, as has happened with all of the add-on installs so far. However, it didn't, it updated successfully and (touch wood) it's works just fine.
Enjoy!

Fun:   
As a huge fan of the Sims games, I pre-ordered this game hoping that it would expand on the gaming experience for the Sims 3 -oh how foolish do I feel?? "Design and High-Tech Stuff" implies that you can upgrade your Sims houses in to modern homes filled with advanced technology and fun gadgets as well as being able to dress them in stylish clothing. If you are expecting this game to provide you with that opportunity, prepare to be very disappointed! The amount of stuff added to the game is so minimal, that it's almost criminal that EA honestly expects you to pay for it! You may have noticed how Stuff Expansion packs in the Sims 2 advertised that they had "60 NEW ITEMS", the reason this one doesn't is because what you see on the front cover is pretty much all you get along with a few other objects. You only get 1 new window and 1 new door to help you give your Sims's house a modern look. As for the new clothing, you get about 4 new outfits (they make it look like more, but actually they're the same ones repeated just in different colours) and they're not even that nice! There are no new clothes for toddlers, children or teenagers. The objects that you do get (however few there may be) are nothing in themselves that "new", sure they look different but they do the same things as the objects that you already get in the game. Like the new computer... works just like the others, the new gaming consoles... they do the same thing as the one you already have only they look different, you get a new running machine (why?? you already have one!) and the new tv is pretty much the same as the last one just with a some random "wave frame" stuck on it. What I'm trying to say is that all they have done is just changed the look of items you already have, but not added anything new to the game. Like why can't we have a 82inch 3D-TV? Or a Robot Nanny for the baby? Just something new rather than something re-designed. This game feels like EA got lazy and just threw something together to make some quick money by ripping off their loyal customers. Sims 3 in itself is an amazing game, but I just hope that they spend more time on their next Stuff expansion pack and put a decent amount of items inside so that its worth buying, unlike this one.

Then again, if you're a huge Sims 3 fan like me, you'll probably end up buying it anyway, just don't get your hopes up or you'll be disappointed with the lack of new content.

Great 5 Aug 2010

Fun:   
My daughter really enjoys The sims 3 but wanted more furniture so i bought her this it`s got about 60 new items.and some new hair and clothing. This is NOT an expansion like Ambitions or World of Adventures this is a Stuff pack. It also brings in 3 anniversary item from sims The Vibrating love bed,Fish tank and Electric guitar. Overall very good if you want fore item for your sims but if your expecting new gameplay then maybe this isn`t for you.
