After reading everyone's responses to this I'd like to put my two cents in and first say : SHUT IT. If you don't like socities, why play and then complain? Let the people who DO like it, enjoy the expansion packs.
And also, the new expansion pack sounds like so much fun! Sim Socities is my favorite out of the SimCity collection. I mean what is the fun of watching the economy grow it's self when you can place it where you want it? It's not a bad game, it's got wonderful graphics and given it's still got bugs, it's really not that bad.
ANYONE who reads this topic, ignore the complainers. The expansion pack most likely won't be bad. If you like this game get it.
That is all!
