In America. No sims 3 sold online
Ive noticed Sims 3 packs are being taken off, even origin. Not sure other county's for download. Can someone conform this??

I searched origin again today and found the sims packs that state they are for sale but obviously as I own them all I cannot purchase and I cannot find a way to add anything to a wish list either so unless a player tries to buy a pack they do not own I cannot know for sure if they are able to buy a S3 pack. I still cannot gift any packs. I keep noticing play and play pro written across some of the packs so like I mentioned yesterday maybe they are trying to turn the S3 version of the game into the play and play pro which I believe is based on a monthly fee? Also when it states search for games and I click on the Sims only S4 packs are highlighted no S3 games which did used to come up in that search.

Obviously I am forgetting that sale of the packs and the store are 2 different outlets in the scheme of things but as I have not been through an end of series like this before I would have assumed they would shut down everything together unless they are withdrawing the packs but leaving the store open for a while?

Lately for a lot of S3 players (myself included) are experiencing bad graphics in the game. When i realised this was happening to me and I could not fix it I purchased a pre 2012 base game and bought the game packs I did not already own on disc and stuck them all on a windows 7 hard drive without an internet connection and all my graphic issues went away. there are some further details on the following thread where I have posted some before and after sim pics along with other players also experiencing issues.

Thanks for posting your disc pics (lovely sims) it reinforces the fact (to me anyway) that right now the disc version of the game looks fab in comparison to the digital origin/Steam versions of the game however some players never experience any issues at all and boy would I like to be one of those lucky players :)
