PC Digital Download Games: The Sims 3 (PC or Mac) $7.50, The Sims Medieval $5, Expansion Packs from $7

anyone know if I can buy the PC download on amazon and activate on origin for mac?

It always blows my mind how overpriced EA keeps this franchise. Honestly Sims expansions feel like you're playing $40 (new) for maybe just a little bit more than what you get for $10 DLC in other games, they add far less to the game than say a MMO expansion adds for the same $40 price. But the real annoying part is that EA keeps their prices so high YEARS and YEARS after release, $30 normal price for expansion packs that are 2-4 years old at this point, are you kidding? And then when they finally go on sale they only go down to $10-$20 at best usually... I can find pretty much any full retail game that is that many years old at better sale prices than these expansions. It's pretty unusual to find even a triple AAA full $60 title that is still sitting at $30 for PC download 3 years after it's release forget about a 3 year old expansion, yet EA does this with every Sims expansion. Meh.

I guess they are just used to milking the diehard sims fans for all their worth for so many years. I mean if people are willing to actually pay $10-20 for a few clothing items in their sims store constantly, I guess these expansion prices seem like a steal to them lol. Holding out for one day hoping they'll be reasonable and make all the expansion packs, maybe besides the newest one, less than $10, so it's not completely ridiculous to buy all the expansions at once for a game that is so many years old. Maybe if they ever get bored of milking Sims 3 and finally announce Sims 4, the prices on these expansions will finally drop.

I purchased the "Sims 3 - Refresh" from Amazon and registered it on Origins and it shows up on my Mac so you should be all good.
