:( It looked convincing, though..

Forgive me for being off topic but over $300 for Laundry day!?? WOW!

That's not just for Laundry Day, it's for the full collection of expansions, gamepacks, etc. shown above. You just can't see them in the pic, lol.

Has anyone experience of buying from this site? I hope nobody there has pre-ordered as they don't seem very trustworthy from EA's own advertising guidelines.

I just noticed that for some reason they changed the title of the potentially leaked DLC from “Tropical Paradise” to “Island Paradise” on both the cover art and in the text on Instant Gaming.

Dunno if that means anything but I do find it interesting...

That's actually an interesting discovery. We will see what it means.

The Sims 3 Expansion was also called Island Paradise, they wouldn't give two expansions the same name.

You’re right. But seasons are... seasons. There are many names for a tropical holiday pack.

Yeah also they would never name it Island Paradise because people would compare it to Sims 3. Island Paradise clearly made use of the open world, with houseboats that can navigate everywhere, hidden islands you could find by exploring the open map and diving spots around the world.

They could never recreate Island Paradise in Sims 4, since there is no open world. People would complain that they can‘t move the houseboats around the world.

That‘s why they need to focus on different things like hula dancing or surfing for example, since these things were not in Island Paradise.

But you never know really. I remember when Cats&dogs leaked and everyone thought it was fake because they considered the name to be lame :D so who knows, we will see. Either way, I'm excited to see what is coming!

There was windsurfing in Island Paradise. I think either way the packs will get compared, so there's no point in stressing over that aspect. Naming it Tropical Paradise or Tropical Vacation or Tiki Paradise makes no difference.
