Hey, this doesn't really have to do with Steam, but with Origin, and I was just hoping one of you could help.

I have the base game of the Sims 3 installed on my computer from the disc. If I were to buy an expansion code from GMG for Origin, would it actually work? Because I know if you buy a Sims expansion on Steam it won't work with the disc installation.

Thanks for any help :)

Yes. If it's Origin DRM, you can add it to your Origin library and play it with Sims 3. I believe the Sims 3 retail serial key can be used for Origin.

i actually have almost all the exps for the sims and only 2 of them are origin, but when i launch the game it works fine, i would say perfectly but i have the building a second story bug, at least last time i played. i actually believe you can put them on steam too and theyll work fine
