    I was playing The Sims 3 on my PS3 and sent my Sim to get some books. The next thing I know the game entered a weird mode that seemed like a debug mode. I had the ability to move Sims around, add complete strangers to my active household, and redo the traits of any Sim. I don't know what I triggered but it was odd...

    It did it on its own? Or did you hit anything? Because I remember from the first Sims that you could enter "moveobjects_on" or something similar and it allowed you to manipulate things that weren't meant to be messed with, such as people or other things normally out of your control.

    It sounds like you activated the cheat code system, I do it all the time

    I have no idea what's it like on a console, but on the PC, there was a cheat called "testingCheatsEnabled true/false", which upon activation gave you those abilities.
