This game is great. Not brilliant. You get much better clothing than any other 'Stuff' packs, and if you have open for buisness you can create really jazzy buisnesses with all the H&M stuff. Overall 3/5. It lost 2 marks because it is so much better with Open For Buisness.

Apparently EA weren't satisfied with the millions of dollars they've already made from the Sims series, so they've resorted to very clever marketing to squeeze yet more money out of their customers.

This Stuff Pack, like all the others, contains no new gameplay elements and just adds some items to the game. This one adds, as you would expect, lots of fashionable clothing, hairstyles and pretty cool shop items, so it's good if you're really into clothes or if you want to build clothes shops (combined with the Open For Business expansion).

This is one of the better "Stuff" packs... IF you can ignore the shameless product placement and advertising. If, like most sensible people, you prefer not to be bombarded with product placement, there are hundreds of thousands (probably millions by now) of custom items available on the internet to download for The Sims 2, quite legally and for free. Better still, if you download only your own choices you won't be burdened with useless junk you'll never use padding out your hard drive.

Bottom line: The only time you should buy a Stuff Pack is if you can't, or won't, download better for free.

I really like The Sims and i love H&M so when i saw this game i had to buy it!! I thought it would be just clothes but its not. For those(like me) who only have the Sims 2 and not Unniversity or Nightlife then this game adds some of the features you get with them.
For example, when creating your sim, you can now add "turn-ons and turn-offs" which means that your sim will be more attracted to certain sims with certain features, (e.g. brown hair and make-up). In addition the sims now have chemistry which are reflected by their turn-ons.
You also get a glimpse of what the Sims will be like if you get Unniversity, Nightlife, or Open for Business which really encourages you to buy them.
Overall i think that this is a good expansion pack and if nothing else, the clothes are really nice!!!

THIS GAME IS VERY FUN
IT HAS LOADS OF NEW FASHONABLE CLOTHS. THE ONLY THING LETTING IT DOWN IS THAT THERE IS ONLY NEW CLOTHES, I KNOW IT IS H+M BUT THERE IS NO NEW MAKEUP AND NO NEW HAIR STYLES. BUT ON THE WHOLE IT IS VERY GOOD GAME!

I really love the Sim they are the best games of all time! I have most of the expension packs and suff but this one is a really bad let down, for starters the clothes are not nice only a couple of them are suitable but there are no clothes for the babies and the chilren there are no new hairs and well if you don't have the sims 2 open for business there is no ponit of buying it because you can't even buy the store the stores are good i really like them this expension pack is the worst so far!
