The Sims 3 Store Set Prices

Get ready to charge that credit card of yours (or, you can buy SimPoints in a major retailer near you!) as EA Unveils The Sims 3 Store Prices (well, we found them anyway). The Riverview town is free ofcourse, and will take up 98mbs of space to download. There are also a plethora of items to buy. There are 4 sets, each with discounts if you buy the entire set. Now keep in mind you get 1000 ($10) Simpoints when you pick up TS3 on launch Day.

Rounding out the low end of the chart at 575 Points ($5.75) is the Tiki Set. Thsi set includes a whopping 15 items. 5 Chairs, 4 Tables/counters, a Bar, and 5 Decorative items.

The Storybook Set will run you a whopping 1900 Points ($19). It includes 45 Items. Among those are 5 Chairs/Sofas, 1 Bed, 3 Plumbing Items (A Sink, Tub, and Toilet), 10 Tables/Counters, 6 Build Mode Items (Doors, Windows, and Pillars). And a whole lot of Decorative items and Lights.

The Hewnsman Set will run you 2000 Points ($20) and will include 47 new items. 2 New Beds, 5 Chairs, 5 Tables, 14 New Build Items, and a ton of Decorative Items and Lights.

The final set at launch will be the bayside set runs at 1450 Points ($14.50) and includes a fair 35 Items in it. 1 Chair, 6 Plum

bing Objects, 6 Appliances, 5 Tables, a TV, and a bunch of decorative objects and lights.

Personally i'll probably be a sucker and pick up either the Bayside or Hewnsman sets, both are very attractive. The Tiki and storybook do not interest me at all, as almost all of the objects i can just use in TS2 for free.

My Sims 3 Pre-Order Box

Not sure exactly why i haven't posted this yet, but i scanned the box i got for pre-ordering the Sims 3. It looks like this: (Back is on the right, Front is on the left)



As you can hopefully see it comes with $10 worth of Simpoints for use in The Sims 3 Store, so therefore we now know there will be a Sims 3 Store. I only get the points when i pick up the game however which is a bit of a bummer. My Pre-Order box also came with a poster for the band Bang Camaro, which i get a free music download for when the game launches. The poster was too big to scan, not that it's all that appealing, just more marketing stuff. Finally in the box came some Sims 3 Stickers (shown below). They're actually neat looking stickers, granted i would have prefered Sim art over just Plumbobs, they do the job, and it's only $5. So, check out the images (click to enlarge). And just wait for it to launch this June!
