I recently bought the PC version of Sims 3 with the Showtime expansion for the cheap on Steam and, after a ten year hiatus from playing PC Sims, I can honestly say that I'm pretty addicted; I forgot how flat out fun these games can be when you're not playing the console versions.
I'm working on getting all of the expansions since I'm that into the game again (and I never got any of the expansions for the first one when I was a kid) and was wondering what any of you FAN Simmers would suggest. I've already got Late Night and I'm leaning towards either Generations or Ambitions plus a "Stuff" pack.
What say you FANners?

I still play, but I was never into the expansions for any of the Sims games. The only thing is I'm a kinda boring person to discuss the Sims with haha. My sister plays a lot too and she always has these interesting stories about her characters. I just play it as I would like my own life to be. A dude living by himself, working on getting better at guitar, painting, and chess (logic skill).

I wanted to get into Sims 3 when the Katy Perry expansion came out but was disappointed to learn you couldn't have sim-sex with sim-Katy Perry.

I'm a closet Sims junkie. Got every expansion pack for 1 and 2, now working my way through 3.

I ended up getting Generations. Maybe some of you guys can help me out. I'm wooing this lady Sim, we've been on four or so dates and things are going great but it doesn't seem like I can advance the relationship. Is there something special I have to do to move this past just dating?

Is there something special I have to do to move this past just dating? I don't have the EP yet, but should try hitting on her constantly. If I'm in a hurry to get two sims married, I can get done in about 3 sims days or less. Also, post pictures of what you're doing in your game. I have Tumblr or a Simblr as we call it.

I still haven't moved on from Sims 2 yet. Once you do, it's so hard to go back and play TS2. I try to all the time and I just can't. It could be the fact that while both games are modified to my liking, TS3 is so addictive. I don't know where to start. Right now, I've been making poses if you know how that process works. I want to learning meshing afterwards. It's the only thing I haven't done yet.

Ambitions is a very good expansion to consider getting. Being an inventor or sculptor can be a lot of fun, since you can do stuff like invent a strip that fills the room with a nice smell if you step over it, or carve a wooden toilet.

I'll probably be picking up Ambitions tomorrow depending on how large my paycheck is. The idea of being a Ghostbuster sounds far too fun to me to pass up. In the game I started last night, I set the lifespan to epic and ended up at the end of my career track before I was even an adult and I married some chick who had custody of her niece. Just started a new game with a new Sim, a different town, and a shorter lifespan. I'd totally be down with taking pics and such to share as long as no one cares that I'm a total money cheater. Don't really use any other cheats, I just like being able to live comfortably.

I want to buy this game; just confused which version/add ons to buy.
I was a slave to the original Sims back when it first game out, and had each expansion set that was released for it.

I want to buy this game; just confused which version/add ons to buy. I was a slave to the original Sims back when it first game out, and had each expansion set that was released for it. Like I've said so far, I've got Late Night, Showtime, and Generations and all three seem like pretty solid choices. The best part about buying from a service like Steam or Origin (Origin is the only option for EPs right now it seems) is that they have bundle deals with the base game plus an expansion for only $50. Anyway, I started taking screencaps of this game so hopefully I can do something fun with that. Here's the stats for my current Sim. I named him after me because I'm creative. Career: Law Enforcement --> Level 1 --> Snitch Lifetime Goal: Become an International Super Spy Traits: Genius, Good Sense of Humor, Charismatic, Athletic, Ambitious Skills: Athletic --> Level 2; Logic --> Level 4 Look at that sexy bastard.
