Pets are now official

[Leto85]

I thought Charlie was a unicorn.

Yes, you're right! I'm watching too much 'movies with hats' probably.

Does anybody know by the way if the 'Extra Expensive' Edition of Pets can be bought in stores in Europe? Weeks ago it where still rumors, so now I'm wondering if there is any more known about it yet.

[CandyHeartedSim]

Yes! Pets!

So just to make sure, what comes with a pc verson preorder, is it just an extra petshop?  And would I only get it if I preordered through EA, or would I also get it preordering through a local retailer like Gamestop?  Hmm....I guess I could check Gamestop's website for that.

The PC Pre-Order comes with a Pet Store. It is available for me on play.com for £27.29. (A UK retailer website)

My local shop is offering extra content for preorders.

The extra content will come with any pre-order from any retailer, either online or a physical store.

Good to know.  Thank you very much.  *goes to local game store to put in a preorder*

We know this how? The only version available for pre-order at Amazon UK is not, as Leto says, the 'Extra Expensive' Limited edition and mentions nothing about extra content. My local shops says the seller has yet to confirm a release date and doesn't even offer pre-order yet. No extra content either.

Hmm...Looking at the Gamestop website for Pets, http://www.gamestop.com/pc/games/the-sims-3-pets-limited-edition/91318  It doesn't say if it comes with the extra content or not.  Though it does have the release date for anyone that doesn't know it yet.  I guess I'll just have to ask in store.  Who knows, it might just come with a code you enter at the Sims3 site to get the stuff, just like the Deluxe Edition of the base game came with one for a car.

Pj, it's on Play.com, which I use, Free Postage and Packaging for £27.99.

Thanks. I checked it earlier and all the links just gave me an error message so I assumed it wouldn't work for my country but now the links are live again.

So what is that content you guys are talking about? I know the Extra Expensive edition will have a customizable petstore in it, but extra content I haven't heard before.

[jeanamariex3]

What exactly is included in the Limited Edition? Is it just another rabbit hole? If it is I don't need it.

From the EA site:  

•Exclusive Limited Edition Content! Only in The Sims 3 Pets Limited Edition will you find a pet store filled with one-of-a-kind objects.

I don't know if there's any information on what the "one-of-a-kind objects" are.

If it's not an object that is more than a decoration, I'm not bothered, too.
