good quality fun

My First advice is please take caution when buying this game as EA have took it off their website which signals they might be releasing a new one for 07.

Basicly this is a stuffpack if you brought the holiday pack from 05 then don't bother buying this one as it only adds 20 more objects but for those who haven't brought one then only buy it if you want xmas objects if your expecting anything else then you'll be disapointed.

I bought this expansion pack only because I wanted to say I had all the games. But it really took me by surprise! I already own Seasons so a perfect christmas is brilliant with the snow outside and everyone in their warm winter outfits! The decorations are really uplifting and I'm always sad to remove them after the season changes. I strongly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a care-free absoultely brill stuff pack!

Spice up your Sims' winter holidays with this updated collection of seasonal items, clothing, and d??cor. Deck their homes with traditional decorations from around the world including ornamental wreaths, a stylish menorah, outdoor snowmen, and an all-new European-style Father Christmas sculpture. Get your Sims ready for the holidays with this updated collection of 60 items of festive fun. Please note that this title requires The Sims 2 or The Sims 2 Special DVD Edition to play.

Enjoy youreslf!

Yes, it's a "stuff" pack, and not an expansion pack. So you get the wallpaper, the flooring, the windows and doors, the decorations, the outfits, and the dancing snowman (something which was desperately needed in the Sims 2, obviously), but nothing else.

This might work a little better once Seasons comes out, but the idea of creating a Yuletide home in sunny Pleasantview just doesn't work. Its the gaming equivalent of hearing Christmas music in the shops when it's still August.

It's a little too specific to a particular times of the year, unless you want your Sims to be celebrating New Year and Christmas every day of the week. The clothing extras aren't particularly extensive, however the furnishings and decorations are pretty enough.
