2.0 out of 5 stars Great, but has a lot of bugs., February 8, 2008

This is truly the most fun expansion pack that I have bought.

However, issues that I had with Seasons and video card compatibility were not solved with this expansion pack as promised.

So, if you have a new Intel iMac with ATI Radeon HD 2600, do not buy this expansion pack until a patch comes out. Aspyr has been extremely slow in solving these issues and doesn't seem to care a great deal.

The EA game issues have not been solved either, such as the NPC overload issue. However, EA has come out with a PC patch that fixes many of the issues. I'm still waiting on Aspyr to come out with a Mac patch.

Otherwise, this is a fantastic game with great new clothes, objects, neighborhoods and game play. I strongly recommend the Bon Voyage EP to anyone with a Power PC Mac.

This expansion pack is the best yet. A whole new way to play. I can't wait until they come out with more vacation expansion pack, maybe with more destinations. (I've been playing it for 2 weeks now and have discovered everything, and it's STILL fun!!) A MUST HAVE FOR ALL SIMS FANATICS!!

This review is from: The Sims 2 Bon Voyage (Video Game)

The Sims 2 Bon Voyage is a great addition to The Sims 2 franchise, but whether you should buy it or not really depends on what you want added to the game. I had been a little disappointed with the last few expansion packs, due to an over abundance of certain things, and not enough of others. For instance, Bon Voyage is obviously about travel, and adds tons of new things to do with your sims outside of their own lot, which might not be ideal for someone with a slower computer, like me, that does not handle leaving the lot very well. However, Bon Voyage is also filled with a good amount of new building items, wallpapers, floors, objects, clothes, and even some new hairstyles. This expansion pack is a necessity for any true Sims 2 fan that has a computer strong enough to run it.
