SIMS 3 GRAPHICS
Firstly, The SIMS 3 graphics are obviously and definitely not as GOOD, DETAILED AND CLEAR as the SIMS 2 graphics. I don't like the look/appearance of the graphics and the graphics itself. The Sims 3 graphics are just too cartoonish and simplified and as if frmo the 1990s--the Sims 3 graphics are like the original Sims 1 series only slightly better. I think i read somewhere in a Sims 3 article that the Sims development team could not use Sims 2 graphics for Sims 3 because Sims 3 is an open neighbourhood and Sims 2 graphics would cause a lot of lag in a Sims 3 game. Somehow I wished they used Sims 2 graphics for the Sims 3 game !!!!
This has noting to do with my graphics card !! I can play Sims 3 smoothly and there are no black or blue areas and i can see everything clearly.
APPEARANCE OF SIMS 3 CHARACTERS
Secondly, i hated the appearance/the look of the Sims characters in Sims 3---again too cartoonish and simple. The appearance of the Sims in Sims 2 was MUCH more human-like and MUCH more realistic and MUCH PRETTIER/HANDSOME. Although in Sims 3 there is more flexibility and choice in controlling how your Sims look like (for example, morbidly fat to skeletal thin, different skin colours like red, green, blue which are not available in Sims 2), i wished the Sims development team had incorporated those parameters in the Sims 2 game in the first place.

I'm not suggesting everyone go run out and spend $300.00 on a vid card...but please consider you may not have the best computer/graphics card available before trashing the sims graphics and making another troll post.
As for the characters looks, yes they do look more "pudgy" but I think they look much more alive, especially their eyes. I was a fan of the Sims 2 cartoon look as well...but I don't think they look bad, just different. Play with CAS a bit more. It's not a cut and paste kinda character creator, you really have to take your time.
Graphics wise, the game is far superior to its predecessors, I can even tell that much despite my current graphics card not executing the game to its fullest potential.
All other minor complaints aside the only major flaw on the grounds of aesthetics is the cartoonish faces on the Sims; which is, unfortunately for me, something that will prove to be a major turn off for this installment and its following expansion packs. Poor character design always kills a game. That doubly applies in the case of this game. It's a shame.
What i was trying to say was expressed CORRECTLY and to the POINT by AMORXOXO3. I do not like the LOOK of the Sims 3 graphics. Even though the graphics in Sims 3 is nice and clear, i still prefer the NICER Sims 2 graphics and also the more realistic look of the Sims 2 graphics
Well said iMaGiNaRy_xiii !! You expressed exactly how i felt i a better way!
Your OPINION is NOT NOT NOT fact. iMaGiNaRy_xiii and Amorxoxo3
and I do not agree with you.
3 AGAINST 1.
machomuu , Everyone is entitled to their very own opinions-you don’t have to agree or disagree with me- but , like everyone else, give me the chance to voice out mine. I have my opinion. You have yours. Why can't you respect that? No one is right or wrong !!
I have to disagree about your "fact".
OH MY GOD! YES!!! YOU ARE RIGHT!
Another example of why Sims 2 graphics and ANIMATIONS are BETTER and CLEARER and more DETAILED!
"Poor cartoonish character DESIGN and ANIMATION always kills a game. That doubtly applies in the case of this game. It's a shame."
It is not a fact. Even though it is not YOUR fact but from an article you read. it is the author of the article 's OPINION.
Buy a better computer Dinowiz. Problem solved.
If you like good performance and visuals for your games, you gotta have the deck to run it. I am able to run both Sims 2 and Sims 3 at max settings, and Sims 3 wins by far.
I find I can make attractive Sims if I make them as skinny as possible and in some cases, lower and raise the face. (I didn't think the Sim's 2 characters were that attractive until they were modded by other users either.)
Also, you can make your computer screen a little skinnier as well...I notice on my wide screen tv the faces are stretched out in an unattracttve manner.
I don't mean this in a "well if you don't like it, **** it!" way. Just in a "why force yourself to play something you don't like?" way. If you don't enjoy the game, I'm sure you can sell it on ebay or just return it to the store. Perhaps you can exchange it for sims 2 expansion packs?
