That bothered me too  :-\ The sims do look "consoleish". In Sims 2 there was such an improvement from Sims 1, and if you put your graphics on really high then the Sims 2 sims look amazing! But in Sims 3 their faces look somewhat blurred 

Ha, consoleish is my word!  > 

Anyways, the sims do look kind of odd. All of the lady’s cheeks look puffy.

Yes notice I put " there as if I was quoting you. 
And yeah I agree they all look like fat ladies. But real people aren't perfect...

Haha, that's because you can customize sims any way you want them, so if you want your sim to have HUGE puffy cheeks then she can have them

As for the fuzziness/blurriness that people have been referring to, I think part of it is that they are relatively low quality images.

But I think that they look far more realistic, even with the somewhat puffy cheeks.

Hence the wink at the end.  ;D
You did need to source it better. Just joking!

Wow, the graphics in that picture are amazing!! I can't but help compare it to the clothes in sims 2 from teen style stuff that looked so fake

1) magazine scans have low quality
2) The game shown is just a Beta (prototype)

Check out the living room in the page below. Notice the light coming into the room? Look at how the very bright light is isolated and how the lines in the window (I don't know what there called) create a shadow. Marvelous! Well if still don't like the graphics that's ok, but I wanted to make sure you saw this picture. I have to admit though, the first time I saw the pictures it looked a little consoleish, but when I saw this picture, wow.

That picture always freaks me out. It's uber realistic, and it looks like a cross between two rooms from my old house.

I was looking in a magazine and they still looked great to me.
Maybe i have no taste in graphics. [move];D[/move]

I think they look great for a beta AND a scan on a magazine.  So when the actual screen shots come out, they will be even better! ;D

you're right.....
it looks sooo real
they probably dont wanna waste money on realy nice screnshots, cause who knows, they've gotta year* to make it a whole 'nother game!
(still hoping they don't)

*or thats what they want us to think!!!!

They might give us some Screen shots when the site opens *squee*.  Well maybe some test screen shots.
