Editing Expansion pack (section)

==Characteristics==
The price of an expansion pack is usually much less than that of the original game. As expansion packs consist solely of additional content, most require the original game in order to play. Games with many expansions often begin selling the original game with prior expansions, such as ''The Sims Deluxe Edition'' (''[[The Sims]]'' with ''[[The Sims: Livin' Large]]''). These bundles make the game more accessible to new players. When games reach the end of their lifespan, the publisher often releases a 'complete' or 'gold' collection, which includes the game and all its subsequent expansions.
