Not Essential, But Deeper Than You Might Expect.
OK, Lets get it on the table right off. This is a Stuff Pack, not a game expansion like the upcomming Pets or University. Mostly Family Fun Stuff is about getting you, well, stuff. As such you get furniture, clothes and even hair for your sims to use and wear. This part is no different from any other Stuff Pack. These things are based areound three themes : the Hawaiian theme, Fantasy theme, and Nautical theme but regardless of theme many of the objects are geared towards children.

But if you haven't bought any of the expansion packs, you will also get gameplay elements that were added in the packs like Fury, Influence, and Inventory which can change your basic gameplay experience. Now if you alread have Open For Business or University or Nightlife, this doesn't add anything new to your play, as you already have these changes, but it's nice if you haven't especially considering this Pack can be had for less than £10.00. Of further interest is that this will install relevant patches to bring you up-to-date as of publication, usefull if you are on limited bandwith or you have a friend or relation who isn't too savy with this whole Intarweb thingamajigger.

So, is it for you? Well that all depends on if you have the expansions, value the changes if not; and if you want the Stuff or can make or download objects like those on offer. If you don't have the Expansions, this is a very worthwhile purchase to spice up your game on the cheap. If you do, then it comes down to the stuff and how you play. Only you can answer that.

Pretty good
it's got lots of really fun new items. not worth buying if you are not hooked on the sims like i am. it's like to have a little diversity between the kids bedrooms. now the kids can have themed rooms rather than boring adult rooms with small beds. the sims2 is a very adictive game this makes a grate addition to the game. but like i said, it's only benificial to us hard core sims2 fans.

pretty good
Although there isn't much added to your game (no interactions etc..) I do think the family fun pack is quite good. It's basically just new objects, but I think they're great and they give my sim kids much more to do in life! It mostly depends on how much you want the new bedroom sets and costumes.
