i rated it 2 in the fun department because this expansion really aint an expansion, you get to buy, adopt or find a stray pet. it seems more like a stuff pack. its boring because you dont really do much except play with your pet. they have more varities for you to choose from but talking to the human sims is still better. i only bought it because i wanted the mansion and garden pack and didnt feel like paying 20 bucks for 1 pack when i can get all 3 for the same 20 bucks. i recommend it only if you want to have a complete collection of expansion and stuff packs or if you love pets. i havent had any bug problems with the game tho, so thats good.

I bought this collection to fill the expansion packs before Bon Voyage expansion pack. What I did not know was that Mansion stuff pack that came with this collection supersede Seasons expansion pack (My last expansion pack) and makes you use the Pet’s Collection CD rather than using Seasons CD after the install. Despite the newer Securom being installed on my computer, I haven’t had any problems with game and no computer malfunctions.
The game however is designed to be run with Freetime expansion pack thus leaves a huge ? when it comes to some game aspects like the Aspiration Bar is now change to whatever Freetime has running and the game tells you to access the new Aspiration bar – install Freetime. This gives the game, you are playing a trial version so buy more of EA Game’s products. Very annoying when you bought the game for PETS and not FREETIME.
Pros about the product: The new items and I love the fact that there is more chemistry connections beyond the regular hair colors, make up, and etc. Now there is +6 job level, unemployment (lol), and many more. Now I don’t have to just assign the same two chemistry connection I’ve been using for so long; I can give my sims more of a realistic attraction to one another.
Cons about the product: Major cons about this collection is that you cannot install any more sims2packs from the Sims 2 Exchange after the installing of the game. The game does not recognize the sims2packs and says the the paths do not exist when you try to install them. I’ve contacted the EA Support but doubt that they will respond. This occurs after you install the Mansion stuff pack from the CD. If you install just Pet and Family stuff pack – this problem dos not occur. Thus if you use the exchange for custom content, install all the sims2packs before you install Mansion (Custom content installed before still works after Mansion installment). Other minor con is that the number of people passing by your house increases exponentially; before, I’ve got a random passersby every 10 am, 1 pm, and 4 pm. Now it is every 1 hour. And if they are friends of the sims, they tend to group by the house. So you got a minor riot outside your house.
Might edit if EA games releases a patch for Mansion Stuff Pack bugs. Review: 2/22/2010
