Do you think Origin will ever offer a Sims 3 Ultimate Edition

From my understanding, they don't have it available any more. EA gave it away for a limited time because they were removing the individual games from Origin.

I hope if EA removes TS3 from Origin they will offer the Simmers who bought the games as DL will get it packaged the same way. :)

Well in that case then I'm glad I snatched up TS2 Ultimate because there were a few stuff packs I didn't buy and I got them all on Ultimate plus it's a lot quicker to just go to origin and load TS2.

I still have my TS2 disc. I'll keep them. You never know Origin may shut down one day and then we'll need the disc again.

I hope so! But that would take days to download with all the store content, EP's/SP's etc...

maybe when sims 5 comes out

right now the sims 3 expansions are still $20

Well, the Sims 2 Ultimate Collection did not come with the store content (yes, Sims 2 had a store, it wasn't very successful as I recall). I would assume a Sims 3 Ultimate Collection would also not include store content.

Hopefully they release a Sims 3 Store Bundle when they go to pull the Sims 3 Store down.

As for timing, baddazoner is probably right, if they give it away for free. If they decide to go the buy route, it could happen in the next year or so. They won't want to ruin any potential sales for the first few EP's of TS4.

I think they might, someday.

This.
You wouldn't get store stuff with TS3 with the possible exception of the worlds that were sold some made it to retail. Monte Vista,Hidden Springs and Barnacle Bay may come with the ultimate set.

When they take down the sims3 store, I hope they give us freebies!. That would be a nice gesture. :)

I personally don't think that a Sims 3 ultimate edition is very likely, at least not in the foreseeable future. EA make a lot of money from the Sims 3 and particularly with the thoughts surrounding Sims 4 they wouldn't want to miss out on valuable sales. The Sims 2 ultimate edition was released 2 games later in the series, so we probably won't see it until The Sims 5 (if there is one) at the earliest.

Maybe it will happen, but Sims 3 is such a big game, it would be impressive.

I wouldn't need it but I'd love a store content pack :P

but I agree with the above user, they're still making lots of money from it. TS4 is still fairly new, I don't know why people keep asking if people are moving on from TS3 yet, it hasn't been that long yet lol.

When sims 2 ultimate collection was offered, I only asked for it because my games were stuck on the slow laggy laptop. I was only missing the holiday stuff pack.. so now I own it twice digitally lol.
