Better? Good! EA announced that its Sims 2 Store is now live for US and Canadian shoppers. The online retail location practices the fine art of micro transactions by offering items available in Sims 2 expansion packs and “all-new exclusive” content.
The store works by converting real money into “SimPoints” at an exchange rate of $1 for 100 SimPoints, and most items we saw appear to be between 75 - 100 SimPoints. Sims 2 fans can decide for themselves if it’s worth micro-transactioning through the Sims 2 Store or picking up the full expansions at retail. The store seems like the type of thing that’s perfect if your Sim just needs to have that new shower head and nothing else.
