However, such behavior may or may not incur the wrath of the parents, who are now able to ground the petulant youths. This, however, is not a stuff pack and the expansion pack’s real forte is its social interactions, which are ramped up to epic levels.įor instance, teens can now have rebellious streaks, playing pranks and generally torturing the neighborhood. One final object addition that I think needs mentioning is the return of the good old chemistry set that makes all sorts of potions which, just as before, have a variety of positive and negative effects.
Also added is the camcorder, which allows you to record as the active Sim and watch these home movies later on. Included in the object list is the life-saving spiral staircase, taking a small square footprint instead of the long rectangle of the standard stairs. There are a few other upgrades that come with it as well, such as the ability to adjust Sim’s body hair in the Sim creator, new sliders that specifically adjust the life cycle length, the return of the “memories” system that more or less gets in the way and, of course, a myriad of new objects. This expansion pack expands social options for every generation, from imaginative play for children to cane-shaking anger at the world as an elder. The tagline is “Live your life to the fullest,” which is exactly what the game is designed to help your Sims do. Released on May 31st, 2011, the expansion focused on bringing the social experience of your Sims more to the forefront of game play. The Sims 3: Generations is latest expansion pack in the 22-title Sims empire.
