Summary: This expansion is definitely worth it!
Comment: If you're bored of The Sims 2 because it seems to shift in circles of the same routine, over and over again with the exception of a few changes (different families, different jobs, etc.) then Seasons is definitely for you. The seasons not only add many different climates but the weather actually changes! From snow, to rain to a blistering hot day your Sims will never be bored and will always be facing some surprising circumstances. You're getting this review from the point of view of a 16 year old who's played the Sims games since pretty much the dawn of time (I jest, but you know what I mean) and I'll list you the pros and cons below.
Pros:
+ The seasons! That's an obvious one, but instead of being stuck in a seemingly always green and summery world your Sims have the options to experience Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter!
+ The weather changes! Have you ever wished to see snow fall and wonder on your Sims' faces at the first snow of the season? How about experience a random rain storm? Bright, hot, blistering weather good for splashing around in the pool? Well now your Sims can have all this!
+ Fun new activities include: snow angels, snowball fights, ice skating in the winter time, gardening/fishing in the summer and spring, harvesting your crops for meals and for special juices that cool down your Sims and fresh hot chocolate to warm them up after a cold day outside plus many many more cool features.
+ The ability to put your left over meals away, so nothing goes to waste and your Sim can have that delicious dish later!
+ You can set different clothes for different types of weather. You can have a special "outerwear" for the winter, and you can set certain hair styles for certain outfits (formal, outerwear, etc!) which is great when you don't want to manually change your Sim's hair for their wedding day or something!
Cons:
- Your Sims sometimes over heat easily, and this can lead to death. It's not too hard a problem to resolve, however.
- As with overheating, they can get really cold especially if they don't have the appropriate outerwear on too! This also results in death if left untreated for too long.
- I've heard of lightening striking Sims dead, etc, but haven't encountered this yet so far so I think as long as your Sims are inside on a rainy day they'll be sure to avoid this.
At any rate, these are the things that really stand out for me and the pros way outshine the cons as you can see for yourself! I'd definitely recommend this game and I'd give it a full 5 stars each way but like all Sims games it does get old and a little repetitive after a while or for a short period of time until you find yourself itching to play again. Still, it's a fantastic and well done game!

Summary: Seasons for my Sims!!
Comment: I haven't gotten to play Seasons much, but so far I like it. My favorite reaction so far is when the Sim gets cold & wants to go jump in the pool!

Summary: Great Product
Comment: I ordered this game thinking I would have to send it back, for I have had bad luck with Amazon in the past. But my Sims 2 game works fine. The downloading process was a little confusing, but the outcome is great. The game plays wonderful. I would definitely buy from this guy again.

Summary: Great Addition to The Sims 2 Family!
Comment: The Sims 2 Seasons adds A LOT to gameplay! I as fairly disappointed after the release of The Sims 2 University - it lacked many objects and new gameplay. Seasons has both! After getting Sims fed, rested, and to the bathroom, there is usually very little time for them to do much else. Thats why this expansion pack is great - the seasons come naturally, as if in real life. Maxis promised us Seasons in the making of The Sims 2 game, and they definitely delivered on this one! There are dozens of new items, wallpapers, flooring, roofs, clothing, and even some new hairstyles. Sims can now play Marco-Polo in the pool, and go fishing in ponds! This expansion pack is a little more graphic-intense than the others, so make sure you are running at least the minimum specs on your computer. People I have talked to (as well as myself), don't appear to be having too much trouble with game lag after installing this expansion pack. I highly recommend Seasons, as one of, if not THE best expansion pack for The Sims 2 genre.
