Is anyone else immensely annoyed by the limitations on toddlers? They can only earn 3 points in logic and music, and then what? The playtable does nothing. After getting their six points and talking/walking/pottying, you're stuck with another 2-3 days of absolutely nothing (and man, do I miss Inge's bottomless bottle and the sleeping mat/dog beds. I'd forgotten how annoying toddlers are when they're not self-sufficient). I used testingcheatsenabled to force age my triplets to childhood, because I didn't feel like dealing with 3 cakes, but then they were unable to go to school until the time when they would have aged to childhood naturally. So annoying.
Babies and toddlers are at that age for way too damn long. I got so bored and annoyed with them. I was able to send them to the cake early though, and then send them to school. Maybe the school thing was messed up because you used testingcheats and they borked that?
Far as I can see, the only drawback to aging a toddler early is that you don't get to choose the third trait. Since I randomize mine anyway, I don't care. Since babies/toddlers are so damned annoying in TS3, I've been shoving up the social bar always and hunger bar only during the night. And, of course, tweaking the energy bar so they won't sit in their crib until 4:00AM wide awake. There seems to be some magical level of energy that allows them to actually go to sleep. I hate them. Why does my current family have to have a sim with the want for five of them?
Color me unimpressed with the effects of filling a LTW or power wish or whatever they are called. My angler got his 13 perfect fish in fishbowls and all he gets is 40k reward points? At this point he doesn't need rewards! All he has to do is go to work, eat, and piss.
Zarifeke:
Is it possible to get another lifetime wish after you've already completed one, by grabbing the "change lifetime wish" reward? I'd check myself but I don't have anyone even close to finishing their lifetime wish yet.

I have played it this evening and my initial impression is that the Sims' heads, once in game, truly look doughy and demented. I had all settings maxed as I have a brand new computer with 4gb ram.
I just could not get over how the look and move. Although I did encounter a cool looking sim named "Gunther". :-)
I agree with another poster who said that s/he could not connect with the Sims because of they way they look. I will be going back to TS2 and keeping this on the virtual shelf until, or if, mods and CC come out.
The world itself is very pretty, but since I cannot make my own custom hood, the pretty does not hold enough appeal to make the game cost worth it. (If I were to buy it, which I am not going to.)
Tigerlilley:
The way they move is awful. Jerky, weird, ugh. This is definitely been another minimum effort from EA.

I've finished several lifetime wishes, I'll test this out soon with one of my Sims.
Edit: Actually, that particular lifetime reward seems to be gone for both my adult Sims. Guess you can't do it :\
