I can understand that.  I wasn't trying to push you.  I was just letting you know there was a sale going on.  I prefer Origin because unless you have a Mac and a PC in your house, it's the easiest way to make sure all my computers do have my games and I don't have to worry about wear the disc is or fighting over the disc if we both want to play the newest expansion.  And if I lose a disc - it's not a problem at all because it's available online all the time.
Oh I agree it works well for some people, I am the only one who plays however so no issue with me and discs/computers/sharing :P

I still have never got around to completing the WA adventures! I don't play enough games with adventures yet I really enjoy them so it's weird. I've had it since it came out as well! So for me it really does hold my attention - hope you enjoy it!  :)

I like it...just overall at the moment sick of Sims yet everyday I play for a bit because I am thinking of new things to do on there...then I get on and get bored...I am weird like that haha.

WA is that rather buggy, which is doubly irritating since it was the first expansion, so you'd think they'd have gotten around to tackling all those potentially game-killing issue at some point by now. Twallan's Error Trap and Traveller make it better, but there is still something very wrong when a game's players have to do the developers' bugfix work. I also found it disappointing that there really isn't much to see or do in the vacation worlds, they're just very bare-bones.

I still like the occasional vacation, and the new skills are fun even though Martial Arts and Nectar Making seem sadly and oddly devoid of opportunities?

Generations is in a way the opposite of WA since it doesn't expand the "breadth" of the game but rather some of its "depth". It has some fun features, but how valuable they are be depends on whether you like all the family/kid stuff. For me, it's the EP I'd ditch if I had to pick one of ones I have (i.e. all but Showtime) because I dislike  children -- and between school, homework and basic needs, there's not much time for children and teens to do "kid stuff" anyway, especially if you want to start them on skills early.
