Sims 3 is on sale on Origin

I play on Steam but it’s nice for the people that play on origin.

I just saw this as well. I was shocked. :o

I was hoping points would be on sale but it is just the expansion packs.

I am going to post about the sale in the Sims 3 Store section of the forum in case people don't see this thread.

I just saw this and finally coped Supernatural and Island Paradise, thank you! :D
Now the only mising EPs in my collection are Showtime, Pets & Into The Future, which...I don't really care for tbh so I'm good

@Me1620 Great idea !

I just purchased my missing ones (Supernatural, Showtime and ITF). The are downloading now. The last time I purchased an expansion, the game would not show my store content and I had to re-download and re-install all store content. This took me many hours to do and I’m hoping I dont have to do this again !

Soooooo......it’s happening again ! After installing the new expansions, all my store content is gone. On the launcher, in the download tabs all the items show as boxes instead of the picture of the item. In the installed tab only the venue buildings are showing. This is just crazy that I have to download everything back from the store again and install everything in game again. Took me like 5-6 hours to do last time. The bizarre thing is that I find zero info concerning this problem when I search the net. I cant be the only one this is happening to ?!?

Try asking a question at Answers HQ. I don't use Origin to play so can't help you. Unless someone else happens to know what's going on you might have a better chance of finding out over there.

Now all that is missing is to have it for sale on console... :O

Plot twist!! I hope steam has it on sale next.

still expensive, i just need stuff packs
and an unban of my sims medieval as well

Happened to me all the time so I gave up on Sims 3 and now play Sims 4 and don't want to go back. In my case it seems to be something to do with old password/email before Origin and the ones I use now. EA techie couldn't sort it for me though.

I tried opening the game on Origin again and it does recognise my high resolution and 144 framerate so that is an improvement. It also didn't start with the launcher as it always has done in the past.
