  • I downloaded this last night and for want of a better word, wasted 4 hours this afternoon getting back in touch with my world of sims. I stopped playing after the first two expansion packs came out but oh I wonder why I ever did.

    So far mine hasn't loaded past the pet screen, I know the sims typically takes a long time to load, but I have never had this problem before and I have previously downloaded instead of having the physical game.

    78% downloaded, daughter can't wait to play it, fingers crossed she has no problems when it comes to loading it! :)

  • Thank you so much for posting this OP. The younger members of the family have started playing this again since school broke up and, apparently, "we should get all the other packs because everybody else has them". They are in for a nice surprise when they get home.
