like it - nothing outrageously spectacular, though. just nice to have the expansion.
Ok at best

Bit of a rip off. I only got it for the Asian clothes.

The only problem is that the serial number was no where on the disc, the booklet nor the box. That is the first time that has ever happened. I could not register the game without that number. I looked everywhere, several times, and it was no where to be found...which leads me to believe that this was not a legitimate product.
Love this game!

I have all of the Sims 2 games, from the original Sims 2 to the newest, Sims 2 Pets. I just preordered Sims 2 Seasons and it wanted me to go back and review all that I've not already reviewed. If you don't already have this...take my advice and buy it. While you are at it, go buy the rest of the Sims games too!
I LOVE THE SIMS 2....they ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!

Unless you have plenty of spare time, DO NOT play The Sims 2! It is WAY too addictive, and it just gets worse with each expansion pack!!
This, combined with the new "Seasons" expansion pack, will let your sims have the white Christmas they have always wanted! :)
I won't miss any SIms2

Ha, I 'm a super fan of Sims2, I will buy every single one of its expansions...thinking about it makes me excited. I haven't atually installed this one, so it's hard for me to comment now.
Some cute add-ons, a little pricey... But still good

I recently renewed my addiction to Sims 2, and purchased this expansion pack, unsure what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised with some of the cute objects included. Granted, I agree its a tad expensive, but the objects are cute, and I love the new wallpaper, rugs, and lights. My sims 2 family house is now quite festive in red and green rugs and wallpaper.
I purchased this used, and found it ran and installed well. 4 stars.
Have a Simsational Holiday Season!

"With reviews of stuff packs you often see multiple complaints regarding the amount of content versus the price. This is easily arguable and when comparing the amount of content in an expansion pack versus a stuff pack and then the price comparison you are indeed better off buying the expansions. BUT, sometimes you are in the market for something in particular. Yes, there are many custom content creators out there who can rival EA for quality and value, but not everyone is comfortable downloading custom content and others prefer knowing the content they get is going to be completely game compatible. That is when stuff packs are the most useful." --- quoted from my review of the Teen Style Stuff stuff pack.
Keeping that in mind Happy Holiday Stuff is my second stuff pack purchase. While currently this item is harder to find since its release was a long time ago, if you happen to find it and get it for the price I did ($9.99) this is a nice addition to your game. My main interest in buying this stuff pack was to add a small amount of game compatable holiday stuff without adding too much. There are many great custom content creators but due to slow loading times I have cut back and the stuff packs have helped add a little extra without adding slowness.
In this stuff pack we find items for primarily Christmas but also Halloween, Thanksgiving, Hannukah, Kwanzaa, traditional New Year and Chinese New Year. For the most part I won't use much outside of the Christmas items which are primarily decor like nutcrackers and wreaths. The clothing in this pack is really yucky, the only clothing item I really like is the baby new year wear for toddlers. The clothing most will not realize is included and many may want are Cheongsams in lovely colors from rich red to royal blue.
Unless you plan on celebrating the holidays frequently in your game this probably isn't the stuff pack for you. The wall options it adds are ugly and I don't think many players (even the die-hards) will use enough of this for it to be worth the original price of the pack. But, if you really want some holiday goodies, you're uncomfortable downloading custom content and you can find it for about $10-$12 I think this is a good addition to the game. I created a Christmas store with the combination of this stuff pack and the Open for Business expansion that has been very popular with my sims.
