The new stuff Pack, IKEA, is due out end of June.

(And if anyone can tell me how to say IKEA, I'll be forever grateful - we don't have such a thing in my country, never heard of them before!)

Ooh. I might be getting this. I buy most of my furniture there, before.

In Denmark, we say it as "ee-kee-ah".
But my mum, whose not danish, says it as "i-kee-a"

I wonder about this collaboration. What does IKEA get out of it? Other than advertising.

I wondered if it was said I-kee-a.

Re the collaboration, part of me thinks maybe the pack itself is the 'fee' that EA pay to IKEA to put it out, but then I think, nah, IKEA would have paid EA to put it out (advertise). But then the cynical part of me thinks maybe EA paid IKEA to do it - cos sales were getting low! LOL

Well I got the pack yesterday. I must say I actually quite like it!

My only complaints would be there's no new top end beds (high energy comfort etc) and as yet I haven't found any new bedding (but I hear on the BBS that there is some, but not everyone is getting it).

Oh and the FT interactions don't necessarily work with the bookcase or the tv. (But if my sim is already watching tv, then he can watch a movie! LOL)

Oh and it's a huge improvement on the mess that was the kitchen and bath stuff pack. :)
