I think you are missing a key part of what the Sims is about.

So you have to pay to dress you're little man up in H&M gear? You really have to hand it to EA, they do know how to make money!!

Generic shit clothes for generic shit games.

I like it. There's a certain poetic balance to it.

Presumably it's free if it's just a pack of advertising?

A tenner - you can buy a crappy h&m t-shirt for that, and it will probably last just as long.....days!

It's better than it sounds. The box seems to indicate you can run your own store, which at least makes it interesting.

It's still a case of in-game advertising taking over the whole game. I'm betting that flooding the eyes of the players with references to H&M is going to take priority in relation to gameplay.

For example, I disliked the fact that the Wipeout Pure Delta Pack was sponsored by Puma, but tolerated it because at least it was moderately discreet.

Bah. Until they release the 'Boscombe Street Market' expansion, where my Sim chav can buy knock-off Chinese counterfeit designer clothing, imitation Burberry and assorted tat with a cannabis leaf logo, I'll pass.

Unless of course it's actually a typo and they mean S&M - try saying "dis graal ist falshey!" with a ball gag on, my little polygonal submissive! *clicks on 'grovel' from actions menu*
