Best expansions, stuff pack, or game pack so far.

Right now I have the original game and the get to work expansion. I am now looking to expand what I have but I don't want to waste money on something that doesn't really bring much improvement to the gameplay. So can you please tell me what your favorite expansion, game pack, or stuff pack is and why? This would be much appreciated

  • One SP I really love (which surprised me because before I became interested in it, I thought it was a pointless pack) is Romantic Garden. I just LOVE the beautiful build/buy mode objects. And the garden that Maxis uploaded to the gallery using its stuff is gorgeous. I wouldn't name it my favorite SP, just one that I really really like. Before I explored more of what came with it, I thought "oh, a garden pack? Boring! Won't be getting that one!" But now I feel totally different about it.

    Thank you everyone for the input. I narrowed it down between Get Together and City Living. In the end I chose City Living because it is currently cheaper on Amazon for the code.


    Congratulations, City Living is my current favorite. San Myshuno is vibrant & colorful with lively neighbors. Enjoy the pack :) You may consider getting Get Together too next time, its also a great pack.

    My favorite game pack is Dine Out & stuff pack will be Movie Hangout. Unfortunately can't get them since they're only available in digital format.

  • Hmmm, this is kind of tough to decide for EP and stuff packs, but I know that the Vampires gamepack is my number one favorite release of everything so far. I really like the aliens this time around and I love the science career in Get to Work, but the clubs feature of Get Together combined with the gorgeous map of Windenburg is hard for me to live without. Plus, I do like the bar theme nights and having night clubs, so I'm going to say....

    GP - Vampires hands down, over everything.
    EP - Get Together with Get to Work close behind.
    SP - Spooky Stuff with Vintage Glamour and Romantic Garden tied in a very close second.

    The stuff packs are so hard to choose for me. Halloween is my absolute favorite time of year and I love having unusual sims in my game so I use the costumes a lot. Plus, pumpkins! But the butler is my top favorite npc and I use him/her all time, they are exactly what I needed for my households. And the wishing well from Romantic Garden is a wonderful addition of deviance so I put it in all of my public parks and graveyards, and some residential gardens. :)

    Get Together: I enjoy the club system and it seems to add the most new things to do with dancing, arcade game, dartboard, diving platform and the DJ booth and more
    Spa Day: As much as I do enjoy Dine Out its limitations in forcing the player to only be able to play as the manager makes Spa Day the best game pack
    Kids Room: Perfection Kids Room sticks to its theme and does it well its the Game Pack of Stuff Packs
  • EP: City Living. Get Together is a close second mostly because Windenburg is so pretty to look at.

    GP: Vampires hands down. It's what got me to play more (and toddlers were added around the same time so that helped).

    SP: It doesn't matter much to me. It's all just more stuff, and I'm always happy to have more stuff.
  • Expansion: Get Together because of its club features, but City Living is a close second because I like the world/atmosphere.

    Game Pack: Probably Dine Out. Taking my sims out for family meals or on dates is so much easier than in TS3.

    Stuff Pack: Depending on how it plays, possibly the bowling one! Just to add another activity/outing to the list.
  • EP: City living
    GP: Parenthood

    I love city living because it adds so much, apartments, festivals, a cool new world and so much more

    My favourite pack of all time is Parenthood, it adds so much and makes the game alot more fun with parenting, before I had this pack I hated my sims having children, but after I got it I got a family that I play everyday that I can't live without because of all the new fun things that you can do!

    I don't have any stuff packs but I think that the one that I want the most is probably Vintage glamour, because it adds buttlers, but I dont really know, and everyone has different opinions, but those are my favourites.
  • EP: Get Together (I love how they did the club system in this game and in my opinion, it is vastly superior to previous games). Next is City Living because I always loved living in apartments in previous game.

    GP: Parenthood (influencing/punishing/praising/advising from toddlers to teenagers which is not exactly perfect but is definitively a big step in the right direction) by far then Vampires and Dine Out (restaurants).

    SP: Don't own any so far.
