I'm soooo tired of EA

I just read this from Snooty Sims:
Sims 3 store

Many visitors from fanevents who played the Sims 3, complained that there were few objects in the game. Now we know why; EA wants to sell them seperately in the Sims 3 store.
But seriously, Simmersnews managed to find some details from that store and found the objects and their price.

Now read this.

What the hell?!? The Sims games are expensive enough and now they want to charge us for "extra" items. Urgh... I'm cringing with disgust.

That's pretty bad!

Yeah...that is not good thing. Is this true that custom content is going to be illegal to share unofficial fansites and can only be shared in official community? I heard this rumor...i hope it´s not true :(....

I wouldn't say so. EA has always supportted custom content as it saved them time, so no, I wouldn't believe it.

Okay, thanks i feel better now

And the thing is, there are a lot of CC creators out there much better then the EA ones....
Luckily there was a "special" offer when you pre-ordered from a swedish site... you get 63 sim points for free. I'm not going to spend any of my money on the Sims 3 store.

I just read this from thesims3.com forums guidelines:

"To use The Sims 3 Store you need to first product register your game on the site. Once you product register, you can obtain your 1000 SimPoints granted to you with the purchase of your game during the registration process, or at a later time by visiting your "My Account" areas on the Store and Community sites."

1000poinst for everyone?! That is good news for a change. You can actually get one or two sets with that amount for free. Im not that impressed with the stuff there...i think im goint to use my points if there´s goin to be batterns of things like that...or maybe in differend kind of hairstyles.

I wasn't entirely impressed but I have a few things I have my eyes set on.
A few hairstyles, clothes etc. Not really furnitures

I think im going to save some point for future. I need a lot of differend kind of hairs and I guess modded hairs won´t be caming anytime soon. Maybe it´s illegal to even make those same way in sims2 :(, so we are completely stuck with EA:s hair...i guess...

Their action of 1000 points when register your game is good.
But ghah.. the prices for the objects, it's to much.
Like someone earlier said, we already pay enough to buy those games... Yet those greedy monsters want to see more and more money. =_=;

Yeah, no duh!

We are just being ripped off by EA. I mean, HELLO? We are currently in a recession you know!

But!- Ea invited the best CC creators in the world to a convention, so... They probs. were showed how to make it there... I hope...

Im going to complain about overprizing at the EA-forums once i get the game ...it´s not going to help but it makes me feel better. I have the money to buy the stuff but im not going to out of principal, it´s just so much overprized and i already spent hundreds of euros in sims2 stuffbacks and expansions and im tired of this. Im just going to use my free points maybe buy some unigue hair if theres not going to be community hairs avalable. But hundreds of euros of my money...not going to happen anymore, im taking my money elswhere.

omg thats so bad .. im tired of EA aswell
