Exact Opposite. You can be such a whore in Sims 3.
Specify gender plz
Guy.
By "whore", I mean that you can practically have sex with ever female character in the game pretty easily.
i know... i was cracking a joke...

But srsly... i laugh so hard if you could be a hooker or a gimp... :D

It came out only 2 days ago? D: Gawd I hope my GameStop has some left! I'm going to call them now.. if not I will go to the Target right next to it :)
Don't worry, the stores overstocked on all their Sims 3 games. There are quite a few left on the shelves. My local Target had about 20 copies left.

EDIT: I would recommend going to Target instead of Gamestop, because GameStop might have already most of their copies sold out because of the large amount of people that preordered the game from them. Target doesn't use pre-ordering so there ARE quite a few copies left there.
 
I just called my GameStop and they said they have a few left :)

if not I'll go to the Target
 
Well I played the Sims 3 for a good 3 hours. Got through about 3 days... there is no speeding up time in my game so everything passes by soo slowly... :/

Anyone know how to fix that?

Other than that I LOVE THIS GAME!!!

That really sucks.
I wanted the game to be a little more challenging -.-
 
I bought it two days ago, and like any other Sim game, it's extremely addictive. :S

No, it doesn't. It doesn't seem like much difference but it is, it's a lot less difference than in other games. Getting through the night while your Sim is asleep can be quite annoying. But it makes the game run for longer which is good.
 
Yep, completely normal :)
And has anyone bought anything from the Sims Store yet?
I don't know what to spend my free 1000 points I got with the game xD
I might add another 1000 and buy the Full Hewnsman Set. Maybe. Or Tiki?
I want more hairstyles aswell!
Ugh there's too much!!
 
At least it doesn't take 30 minutes for your Sim to go to the bathroom like in Sims 1.

EDIT: @Samwhich: I bought the new type of counter. I thought it looked pretty good. I also got the new TV. I'm waiting for some better stuff to be released before I spend the rest of my points.
 
I have only bought one of my houses a T.V. so far. My Sims manage fine without it!
Except the one I did buy, he's a slob and doesn't like outdoors so a T.V. was essential :)
I absolutely love all the different traits!
I'm having so much fun experimenting with them!
My favourite family is one where I have a slob and a neat freak, it's so funny!
 
I have a big question...

Can you only make one family at a time in the sims3?
I made one family already (Hons family), how do I make another? :/

At the screen where you select which household to play, you simply select "New Game".
 
I just got it today (Collector's Edition) and it's installing now. I can't wait to play it!!
