What can i say

This seemed like a nice little add on bonus if you bought it with the sims 2 but i'd say it has as much value as any other stuff pack. I like the proper expansion packs which have a new way of playing with your little simlings. And i know (for people who have read my reviews) i have a habit of rating items i dont own but i feel like i can predict what its going to be like |

It's only a stuff pack!

Don't expect anything major from this pack, you won't get any new interactions or neighbourhoods etc. but for those of you who like to decorate your Sim's houses on special occasions (like me) this is a nice little SP.It's not only for Christmas either, it has some halloween stuff, Easter and some others I can't remember. Also there is a big santa beard ;)
Though I liked this SP, I only borrowed, so I would advise you to wait until EA brings out The Sims 2 Happy Holiday Stuff.

Not Essential - but adds Flavor

OK, I'm going to be up-front about this, this is not the first thing you should reach for when you are looking for something to spice up your Sims 2 experience. This isn't to say that the party pack is without value, just that if you are wanting something that will change your gameplay experience dramatically, look elsewhere (like Open for Business or the upcomming Pets expansions). No this disk is as important as the Christmas Tree at Christmas - it all depends on your point of view.
While largely the stuff you get is themed around Christmas, there are some things for other holidays as well, such as Halloween, New Year and Easter. The decorative objects are nice to set a holiday theme, you can have a New Year's party, you can dress sims up as Mr. or Mrs. Claus - the changes it makes are generally subtle and/or decorative but that is the same as it is for you and your home. Either this is important to you or it is not - hence the 3 stars. |

Buy if you want to increase your inventory

It's probably easiest to tell from the box that this is more of an add-on than an expansion pack, the pictures are simply the graphics from the original "The Sims 2" box with a few party hats and mistletoe slapped on. Also that fact that you don't need a CD-Key to install it. With this disc you get a stack of new items, a few new Body Shop items and the option to throw a New Year's Bash should the mood take you. Also a few other amusing interations with objects that I have yet to try but have heard a few funny things about. For less than £10 I don't think that this is a bad add-on pack at all, at least if you only expect it to be an add-on pack and not a full-blown expansion set like University, Nightlife or Open for Business. If you are looking for content to change and zest your Sims lives up then this probably would not be the best choice, if you are looking for some new items and don't have the internet connection to download (or just don't like custom content) then this is more for you. .. Or you could be like me and be a collector nut that has to have everything :D This would be good for you too! |

Get it from a friend

As the sims christmas is half the price as nightlife and university, then you would expect half the content? No this game has 40 new as opposed to open for buisness with over 125. There are no new social interactions or neighborhoods. It includes about three new clothes. The new objects are simply decorations and give you no interactions with them. This game is worth no more than two pounds, or borrow it of a friend. This isn't half an expansion pack, this is 1/10 of an expansion pack. |
