It's The Sims 3 but for the consoles. Is there really anything else you need to know?

Draw Light Rigs

Draw Occluders

This option requires Draw Light Rigs to be enabled, or else the game will crash!

PS3 01638E31 01
Allow True Specular Probes

This option is enabled by default, and disabling it has some changes to lighting.

Draw Proxman Lights (slow)

Oddities

Going Over The Weight Limit

Unlike the PC version, there is only 1 way to go over the weight limit in the game, that the game allows you to in the Create A Sim. As a result of doing this action multiple times, your sim will be extremely obese and will look weird.
