Hello all,

Long time lurker and downloader. I am going to buy another EP of the Sims but I'm not sure which one to get. Two catches: I can only afford one right now and my local stores only have Seasons, Pets, and Bon Voyage (FYI--I own the original, plus Nightlife) so those are my options. What are your recommendations and why?

Pets seems cool for the animals, seasons sounds fun for the weather, and BV just looks realy buggy right now, but I only know from reading. (I think I want Uni for the mirrored walls, but I can't find it anywhere locally.)

peace

Of your three choices, I'd recommend Seasons.  

Pets, IMO, is the buggiest of the three.  Even after the patch.  

By the time you get some money again, Bon Voyage should be stable and mods updated if you use any.

University is pretty much a waste of money, unless you really want the objects it adds.

^^  Seasons for sure.  Well worth the money spent and way less buggy IMHO.  Wink

I like Seasons as well, but I've come to love my pets. Toss up between the two for me.

I think seasons because there is so much you can do, and its on your doorstep unlike the others where it takes ages to load because you have to go from community lots and other destinations. I personally don't like pets because they have limited actions and they are just so boring! I mean i got bored with pets within about a week, but the crafty buggers at maxis make it so i can't play my neighbourhood if i uninstall it. (yeah i know i'm supposed to make backups!) This is the only time i made a backup of my neighbourhood when i installed bon voyage cos i didn't wanna lose it again! Also bon voyage is very laggy, and poor me with a 128mb graphics card has to suffer crappy graphics and a lot of waitin! So don't but Bon voyage unless you have a good computer or you will be disappointed.

Probably Seasons cause of the weather options and stuff like that. Although, I am really enjoying Bon Voyage, so out of the three, I would pick that ^.^
It does lag though, even with my computer it lags, so would depend how your computer is.

I think we are all unanimous on this, among your list above, Seasons is definitely your best bet.

Adds a lot to the game, new interactions, Seasons, new jobs to name a few.  A must have EP.

We were just about unanimous, but Nova says Pets.  I can't figure out why because there's no goats in it....

Seasons all the way...
That says a lot, since Im still in the "honeymoon" phase with BV....Seasons is just the better pack with more additions than any other EP.  Pets is more like a stuff pack than a real EP...and BV is already losing its luster (and I only got it on Friday)

I buy them all so perhaps I'm the last one to ask, but I've been having more fun with bon voyage.
