Need more furniture? Of course you do! "The Sims 2 IKEA Home Stuff" comes with objects for the living room, office, and bedroom. The stuff pack makes me wish I had an IKEA store closeby again - one of my favorite stuff packs by far. Anyone not buying "The Sims 2 IKEA Home Stuff?"

Maxis opened it's own pay site offering "The Sims 2" downloads. Some of the downloads are exclusive to the online store. The majority can be found in expansions or stuff packs. It's $5 for every 500 SimPoints. Most items are about 75 - 100 points. Roughly a dollar for each item. Not a bad deal if you only want a couple of items from a stuff pack. I'm not crazy about the exclusive objects posted now. Signing up for an account gets you 6 objects.

Is the online store something you think you'd use?
