Forget the game. Why pay for a purposefully incomplete product? The Sims 2 was bad enough. An expansion pack every six months, with a "Stuff Pack" in between those. DLC-exclusive items from the website that cost even more. Hell, even the amateurish player-made stuff often requires you to pay! Will Wright kind of reached his peak with the Sims. Of course, he's not involved this time around, but after seeing how Spore turned out, would you really want him to be?
