  • What The Sims 3 expansion packs would you like to see?

    The Sims 3: Collector's Edition for PCWith The Sims 3 finally released in June, in a similar fashion to the rest of the series, we should expect expansion packs in 2009 and beyond! So… What kind of The Sims 3 expansions would you like to see?

    Here are a few ideas the developers at Electronic Arts have been playing around with. One of these could very well be the first The Sims 3 expansion pack. Around the time The Sims series sold 100 million copies worldwide, in an interview with The Sims’ studio head Rod Humble, he mentions what expansions were canceled and which expansion ideas not used for The Sims 2 might be used in the future [read: The Sims 3]. Of special note is that he said that: “Most of the expansion packs we have brought to market have been created from fan reaction or feedback as we listen to our audience and respond with making exciting additive content available to them.”

    Expansion pack ideas list:

  • “Other ideas I’ve seen in the community include a rave/party pack and science fiction pack,” he told Joystiq.
  • The supernatural aspects in The Sims games have always been fan favorites, not to mention favorites within our studio! We’re creating some fun surprises new and old fans are going to love in The Sims 3. “I personally absolutely hate everything supernatural in The Sims 2, but the team loves putting it in by way of mocking. So the expansion pack team now designates, ‘What supernatural thing do we put in to piss off Rod?’ Because I really, really hate it,” he laughed when talking to 1UP.
  • So far confirmed expansion packs:

  • The Sims 3: World Adventures Expansion Pack
  • The Sims 3: Ambitions Expansion Pack
  • 1 more Stuff Pack are expected for released by November 2010.

      YES! I have been waiting for this for a while.
      && being a chick, I don’t see it only doing well in the male demo, like some critics might say, I actually see it doing well no matter the gender. They should also allow us to have the teenager try out for whatever sport team and then gain the skills and be recruited by college (university expansion pack) and then after that, you either make it in the professional league or not based on your dedication to it. That would be so amazing, I can’t imagine! Haha.
