ETA: jolrei, if you don't like a Sim's wish, just right-click it and it goes away. It (probably) won't come back unless it's associated with a trait or lifetime wish of the Sim. Also, one of my Sims had been staying home a lot after retirement, and he got a wish to get out of the house because he was feeling stir-crazy ;-) I sent him to the library. He was a bookworm and loved hanging out there.
If I don't like a Sim's wish I Ctrl+ left click it.. :P
Why use a key + a click, when you can just use a click, noob? Fail.

I don't know if anyone else has seen the IGN article but they have several screenshots of the TS3 store and I had to come and make sure I have my equation correct.
OK for anyone who knows: the $10 worth of points given to those that pre-order or some other shit is how many points? Some places are saying 100 points and some saying 1000.
Some of the sets are ridiculous and could have just been put in the base game. I mean c'mon we're going to arrrrr the shit out of the stuff any way but make it where some people would feel bad enough and pay for it.
It has been confirmed by EAxis that 100 points is worth $1. The $10 worth of points we're getting is then 1000 points. Also, prices have been confirmed by third parties to run between 25 points ($0.25) and 2000 points ($20). Even those these 2000-point purchases are generally packages of items, they still have considerably fewer than one would find in a TS2 SP of the same price (50ish compared to hundreds, usually).

Thanks for clearing that up. still greedy and made to phail to but a little more digestible. I also found more screenshots, this time of the hairstyles, 'cause I simply hate the lack of decent hair styles across the board. These are a little better.

I believe Zaza already posted pix of her Rainbow Brite-headed boy Sim.
Nathan inherited his mom's hair color completely, so it's not exactly the same case. It seems they inherit one parent's haircolor...complete haircolor. There is no blending.

Wishes and moodlets are both clever.
They are, but pointless moodlets are pointless. Had a Good Night's Sleep is valid for hours, yet has no effect.

Cars are a step WAY down from TS2. I don't know why they bothered. Often, my Sims will not even bother to use their cars when they are setting off from home. I got two Sims two cars, and they walked or hailed taxis anyway.
You can pause game and change the transportation method. However, this still fails. I should be able to set default transportation method. I should not have a carpool honking for an hour outside a house when the worker was already downtown and is already at work.

Townies on you that you cannot easily burninate, drowninate, or mutilate (many of which will call your Sims with whiny "WRY U NO CALL MEH? U BAD FWEND!" messages if you don't waste time dealing with thier F-liness all the time).
Friends barely ever call at all, and have become basically useless. My sims only befriend future mates, or those they are required to for opportunities. As soon as the opportunity is turned in, there is no reason not to let the relationship decay.

That's what I was afraid of. So, no point in playing and making stuff if it won't work in the "final" release. I guess I'll wait a bit with the obligatory legacy founding :)
Eh, you can save sims, which should transfer, since they carry no real baggage. Lots...perhaps. It's worth a try. But I wouldn't try transferring an entire game save.

The real question is, which one were you aiming for - a pussycat doll or a bratz doll?
Neither :-\ I used one of my pics. That's the best I could do without looking like a bobble head.
What the heck is Batz doll anyways? I know who the pussycat dolls are...
ETA: never mind, I googled it. Lol they look an awful lot like the new sims. Um, maybe that's where EAXIS got the idea from.
