OK, so why would I want this mess?
Avi:
I'm definitely regretting my decision to let my husband go ahead and order the collector's edition for me . . . But I am a Sims whore so I gotta have it all—but that doesn't mean I won't arr when necessary. This is the first time I've ever arr'd a complete game in the Sims franchise but it's because my gut wasn't too happy when the first pics came out and I discovered the fugly Sims. I'm usually pretty good about buying a game to give the company their due. I'm seriously only looking forward to the thumb drive and fucking over the store; I was pissed when it came around for TS2 and now even more so considering their lack of objects in this base game.
In the meantime I keep pounding away at TS2 hoping it will eventually go back to the way it was. Yes, I'm still working on it for those of you who remembered my rambling plea . . . Hell, fixing TS2 is more fun than I've had playing TS3 so far. Hell, waiting 2 hours for TS2 to load is more fun than I've had playing TS3! It's fun for like five minutes before your Sim has to head off to 7 hours of work or goes to sleep then forget it. I was warming up to it and then got promptly bored again when I got sick of waiting for my Sims to come home from work, etc. Simday after Simday. I'd rather spend the $250 or so to get another ATI Radeon 9800 which ran my game a lot better than my current card than to spend $60 for TS3. So I'm taking it as a collector's item and not much else. I'll probably play it once in a blue moon but get annoyed by something in it and stop for ages unless some good hacks/mods come out. So far that's how it's been. So until it becomes more playable thanks to you guys and other modders, it'll probably just sit on my hard drive collecting dust.

You're stuck with nasty dead-looking eyes. (About 80% of my reason for thinking I'm going to hate this. All I can think of when I look at them is a Victorian porcelain doll in a horror movie. You know the one that tries to strangle the hero the minute s/he falls asleep.)
You're the first (other than me) that I've seen mention that. Most people think the new eyes look more realistic, but I completely agree with you.
The Creepy Doll Eyes problem has been discussed quite a bit in various threads.
One pet peeve of mine is the larval babies.

Ha! Be lucky it only looks like larvae to you. The first thing that popped into my mind when I saw the babies was the creepy Tarako babies from a Japanese spaghetti commercial. Watch and be freaked out like I was, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cN8zAQbUB38&feature=related
I try to stay away from making babies in game because how creepy they look
vagabondher:
Or just pop out a cake and age the baby up real quick, either way.
Zazazu:
Feh. Creepy doll eyes? Why is no one else creeped out by the fact that their heads keep moving when you pause? Video evidence. The move at the very end might send you screaming from the room.
