Default [WP] 'The Sims 3' Getting Destination Aventure Expansion



Quote:
The Sims 3 gives you the freedom to create unique Sims and immerse them in your own living neighborhood of endless possibility! While there is no official announcement yet, nor any details what so ever, it seems EA's The Sims 3 is getting its first, of undoubtedly many, expansion packs later this year as Destination Aventure is currently scheduled for release Nov. 2009.

If there was ever a game to be pirated and have a good reason, The Sims series would have to be it. What a scam, essentially forcing people to buy addons to a game all the time...

How many were there for The SIms 2? A dozen? More?

Geesh, if EA doesn't have billions stockpiled from their neverending supply of the same sports game rereleased every year and the Sims franchise...I don't know what to believe in anymore.

7 expansions for the first one and 8 for Sims 2.

My sister bought all the ones for the first, but never got into the Sims 2. She did get Sims 3 and is already addicted, so I can foresee many expansions in her future. She's just the exact person EA is targeting.

Same here, it seems like it's lacking options with a lot of the materials for making houses and definitely furniture. Housemaking is one of the best parts!
