My Sims don't have a lot of parties. They are a lot of work and look all the same. "The Sims 2 Celebration" steps up to the plate to fix that problem. New party objects and themes give parties new life. Throwing a party with an appropriate theme (and cake) is a thousand times more satisfying. Plus I love getting new hairstyles (flowers in hair!) and clothes knowing they should work with no problems. The chairs will balloons on them are a new favorite.

I like the idea of stuff packs. I really do. It's a good concept, especially for gamers that don't want to download custom content. Stuff packs gives us a way to get new clothes, objects, and hairstyles that we knew will be top notch. The decorations, chairs, arches, and tables are all beautifully done. Multiple themes and colors are appreciated. The hairstyles and clothes beautiful as well. Quality is not an issue with "The Sims 2 Celebration." The problem is quantity.

"The Sims 2 Celebration" doesn't come with nearly enough new "stuff." There needs to be more of them to justify the full retail price. Buy "The Sims 2 Celebration" when you can find it on sale. You'll be happier with your purchase if you do.
