Title: Which Holiday Sims 2 has the long beard Post by: Craigsters on 2006 November 09, 12:31:22 I'd like to know which Sims 2 holiday game is the one that has the long beard??
I noticed that there was two types of Sims 2 Holiday games, The Sims 2 Happy Holiday Stuff and Sims 2 Holiday Pack? which is the one to buy??? Title: Re: Which Holiday Sims 2 has the long beard Post by: Venusy on 2006 November 09, 12:43:13 If you do not already have The Sims 2, buy (or "acquire") The Sims 2 Holiday Edition. If you do have The Sims 2, you want Happy Holiday Stuff or last year's Holiday Pack. All of them include the beard.
Title: Re: Which Holiday Sims 2 has the long beard Post by: travellersside on 2006 November 09, 12:46:43 There are 3 different options, arranged in order of increasing cost. Both 2 and 3 include the beard. Those who choose 1 will already have the beard.:
The mini-pack, which is a booster for those people who bought last year's holiday pack. Since you're asking about the contents of the various versions, you obviously don't have last year's, so don't get the minipack. The next one is the Happy Holiday Stuff Pack. This is, like the stuff packs, an add-on, requiring The Sims 2 to be already installed, although you don't need any of the expansion packs for it to work. Since you're asking for content questions, I'm assuming that you already have the The Sims 2 installed, so this is what I'd recommend choosing. I don't have it myself, but from what I hear it isn't a 'proper' stuff pack, i.e. the disk isn't required in order to play the game, and it doesn't add new loading screens and music. On the other hand, it actually contains more game content than the Stuff packs do - genuinely new content such as firecrackers, NPCs and so on. Hopefully, when they compiled this, EA fixed the bugs that last year's pack had. Lastly, there's The Sims 2 Holiday Edition, which is The Sims 2 Original, bundled with the Happy Holiday Stuff Pack. Only get this if you don't already have the base game. It's well worth looking around to see how cheaply you can get the Holiday Stuff Pack. DO NOT buy via the EA Downloader - it will cause you a lot of grief.
