LGR goes on about the price being a disadvantage of Roaring Heights but looking back now in 2020, I'd rather spend my money on this than on a Sims 4 pack. I actually just logged onto the Sims 3 site just to check my games were already registered ahead of the 64 bit mac release tomorrow, and I was gifted with 1000 sim points! I had no idea the store was still active and there was some pretty good stuff on there. I have Seasons, Parenthood and Get to Work on TS4 as Seasons, Generations and Ambitions were my favourite packs on TS3. but they didn't add as much depth to the game as I'd hoped so I refuse to spend any more money on Sims 4. If everything works well with TS3 on my mac then you can bet I'll be spending my money on stuff like this instead!

Man, it is -absolutely- wild to come back to your Sims 3 videos and hear you be so enthusiastic compared to The Sims 4. Definitely makes me miss the good ol'days when Sims was a fun game. I think I miss how the sims in TS3 actually felt like different people based on their traits vs the same-y carbon copies in TS4. I also miss being able to actually have enemies in game without sims who are sworn enemies trying to make nice when I leave them to their own devices, like, BRUH I MADE YOU MEAN AND EVIL WHY ARE YOU HAVING A CIVIL CONVERSATION WITH THE ENEMY?

I mean, if you buy the gold bundle, it gives you enough SimPoints to afford the boardwalk. So you're still only really paying $35 for both. Still, that's a whopping $35 for what is ostensibly not an expansion pack, but a new town and a place-anywhere venue.
(Then again, the same could be said for just about anything on the Sims 3 store. Acquiring everything there could rack up a little over a thousand dollars, even with the free points you get from the actual expansions)

Lgr, just want to say how much your reviews and your freakin voice in my head -. duuh, duke nukem. - has changed my sim life.
I now have st benjamin, cornucopia, sycamore city and roaring altitudes and, well, sims 3 is not going to die. Ever. You have put Even more value into a game which has compelled me mercilessly into long caffeine filled nights of rampant simulated life, debauchery, fishing and gardening.

Depending on your creativity, the rollercoaster is definitely worth the cost. The tracks are remarkably flexible in what's considered viable as long as you have moveobjects on. I've had a half circle turn pass through the middle of the loop with no problem. The track pieces are very unobtrusive and don't seem to interfere with the interaction of any nearby items.

Its funny how when this came out it was cool, but admittedly nothing too special. HOWEVER, after five+ years of a lackluster Sims 4, this has turned into premium content in hindsight. Sims 3 is altogether a much better experience than Sims 4, even if Sims 3 has routing and lag issues. I can't imagine Sims 4 churning out something like this today.

Since EA release Sims 4, Origin stop making any discounts for Sims 3. I have waiting for it for the last 3 years. I don't want to spend 20 bucks for some Stuff packs that don't worth it! Like: Fast Lane Stuff, Katy Perry's Sweet Treats, Diesel Stuff, etc. But I would like to have them, but not for this price. They not worth this money at all!

Wait aren't towns and worlds the same thing though? Either way, awesome review, keep up the good work! Oh yeah, one question: say I just wanted the roller coaster and stuff so I could make my own amusement park, could I just get that and not bother with Roaring Heights or do you need both Roaring Heights and the other pack?

Funny thing about -the old fixer upper-, but if you-ve played Sims 2 and gotten the Freetime expansion pack, there-s a vehicle that functions the same way actually in it.
It-s basically an old toy put into something with less in it, in fact it was apart of the mechanical hobby.
