    Super boring exp. pack! Nobody wanted this but EA thinks yeah, we need something for the super small minority, lol, they got what they deserved so the worst exp. pack of all time.

    The most disappointing Sims 3 expansion pack so far in my opinion, just beating Ambitions to the post. It feels like more of a loose ends pack, adding in small features that were missing in the main game, but adding no real big new features worth mentioning. Sure, some new objects and interactions are good, but there's nothing about this expansion pack that makes you go 'wow', like manyThe most disappointing Sims 3 expansion pack so far in my opinion, just beating Ambitions to the post.

Hopefully the Pets expansion will be a BIG improvement on this expansion pack. Expand

    It had to be like a pack on The Sims 3 Store. I didn't like it, it added some realistic things to the game, but it didn't reach my expectations. That game was so poor on new things, hairs, clothes and these things.

    The new additions may be entertaining and well done, but this add-on is still far too expensive, if you don't really care a lot about your Sims and their fun.

    Generations is, without a doubt, the second blandest expansion in The Sims franchise since The House Party.

    Minor gameplay changes mark this as one for fans only. [Sept 2011, p.69]
