Origin Won't Let Me Buy The Sims 3

[SimmerLauren88]

So, I was wanting to play The Sims 3, and I went to buy it on Origin, however it won't let me buy it. I don't have Origin Access. 

So I was wondering if you needed Origin Access to buy The Sims 3, or if you can buy it without. Is it an issue with Origin or my PC or what?

Hello, sorry for not getting back to you. It turned out to be an issue with the Internet. I have been playing The Sims 3 for a few days, and it works great. Thanks for the advice though

@SimmerLauren88  You definitely don't need Access to buy Sims 3.  What happens if you go here:

https://www.origin.com/usa/en-us/store/the-sims/the-sims-3

click the orange Get the Game button, scroll down past the Access offers, and click Buy Now?  I get a pop-up to sign in, which is as far as I can go because I already have the game on my account.  If this doesn't work for you, try using a different browser.
