...in addition to graphics that look like a throwback to TS1 more than an improvement on TS2, has influenced me to uninstall for now.

For some reason the screens I've seen from TS3 do remind me a little of TS1, but not in a negative way. I think this is in part because of the colours used. TS1 had more vibrant colours than TS2 has, and they seem to be making a return in this new game. I'm fairly sure the brick fence used in the park and the large shrub with pink flowers are based on objects from TS1. There may be more, but those are the ones I've noticed.

Also, TS2 tends to seem a little empty if you're not a good landscaper (I'm not), and even then the surroundings look pixelated and unattractive. The main reason I'm even going to buy TS3 is because the world itself looks so much prettier. I'm still hanging on to TS2, though.

Exactly... except the good looking female part. I actually like TS3 females. Sure, the SUPER skinny ones look friggin' weird but the regular looking females and quite fat ones look sort of normal. I really want a breast adjuster though. It's not fair that only hugely obese sims have huge boobs.


Yeah, the fat ones do look sort of normal.  They look exactly like someone I know in fact.  I wish the game had a breast adjuster too.  I wonder if such things could be tweaked in the character files at some point... if there are indeed Sims 3 equivalents of character files.  I'm guessing the bodies are a base mesh with some kind of morphing algorithm applied.

The pudgy girls' body shape looks like this other bridesmaid in the wedding I was just in. She and I wore the same cut in the same size, but our dresses looked so different because she's more of the traditional pear-shaped, heavy on the rear, and I'm more of a tube with big boobs. If you can count a 1/2" indentation as a waist, I guess I still have one.

I thought that maybe this was a coincidence but I've decided that it's definitely not so I have to share. My sim who has been 'Neat' since birth grew up always having wishes to befriend the maid. I thought this was cute but likely a coincidence since maids seemed to be the only people outside of his family that I let him spend time with. As a teen, he became best friends with two of the maids (they were both teens at the time... maids seem to be able to be teens or adults). Now that he is a young adult, he is constantly rolling wishes to flirt/massage/kiss the two maids that are serving his house. Clearly I will have him marry the prettier one since it's just so easy. He doesn't have any romantic traits at all either, he is brave/loves the outdoors/neat (he only has three traits because of the bug, i'm just about to give him more with the mid-life crisis reward). Anyways, I think this is an extremely adorable trait of the 'Neat' sims. Anyone else seen this?

The second that Dillon Langerak, the first-born of my current family, grew to YA, he wanted to befriend the last maid he'd seen. He's not wanting to mess around with any, but he's a newlywed and is otherwise occupied with wanting to become friends again with the highschool sweetheart I had him dump for his wife. And this is why I didn't let him marry the highschool sweetheart:

Is it just me or does she have a goatee in the child picture?

Is she an Ursine?  One of my gen 2 sims married an Ursine and she has the exact same lips.  One of their kids got them as well as her apparently immaculately conceived grandson.  

Has anyone else noticed a sim not sleeping in the bed they shared with their spouse after the spouse dies?  My CAS sim randomly slept in her grandson's bed the night her husband died.  Other than that and one other time, they've always gone back to the same bed automatically.  

Avi:
I know this is going off on another tangent but is getting rid of Securom and EADM going to be the same as it was for Sims 2 or more complicated considering the launcher seems more integrated with EADM?

I've only seen mention that Securom is back, but not anything about how to get rid of it with TS3.  Or did I miss something?
