Animal Crossing: City Folk

Damn You Dave Rudden!!! I will make you cry! jk great review! I just dont feel as bored of animal crossing dave. maybe since im still on my first time in animal crossing. once i get this it will be my second move. oh and just in case some new guys done know, you can only plant money trees with a golden shovel! I cant wait to pick this up

All the reviews are marking it down for being too similar to the DS one, but this is a GOOD thing because the DS one rocks!

Any Wii review that has a straight out NWA quote is gold in my book.

It's a good game, a refreshing change from the never ending barrage of first person shooters I've played lately on the PS3.

I can't believe this game was considered as a hardcore title for the Wii. I can recognize that AC has developed a solid fanbase and stuff but give me a break. This game is not going to make a hardcore gamer drop their 360's and PS3's to get a Wii. Hardcore game my ass.

It's a hardcore game in a sense that the game has a hardcore following and it's an already established franchise. This game wasn't directed towards the 360 and PS3 crowds who still worship Halo 3 but for the people who are sick of that kind of game, fans of the series and first timers wanting to check it out.

Also, it's a hardcore game in a sense that it has a ton of replay value, you could play the game every day for a year or two and still not get bored simply because there's so much stuff to collect in the game and secrets to discover.. there's no violence, blood or anything like that but it's got replay value to spare.

It's as "hardcore" as someone makes it. If someone plays it for 4 hours a day everyday, then it's a "hardcore" game. Just like Gears of War 2 is a "casual" game if someone only plays it casually. Get over these stupid terms to categorize games as either one or the other. Any game can be both "hardcore" or "casual".

I never played AC, and was planning on getting this. The fact that it's not a game in the same sense as a platformer or RPG is not an issue with me. Any game I can play endlessly is a fantastic value. The problem is that with all the other games I have, I don't have the time to really play this one a lot. Thus it might not be worth it for me to get it, at this point anyways. It does sound intriguing though. Something to play when you want to relax.

Hate to nitpick but why would the PS3 crowd worship Halo 3. In my experience most Sony fans despise the Halo franchise.

Well you know what I mean.. most good PS3 games are first person shooters, the same way they are on the 360.. the biggest on PS3 being Resistance 2 which is similar to Halo 3. I was gonna get Resistance 2 but after playing Far Cry 2, Socom, Battlefield Bad Company, Call of Duty 4 I decided to pass on it for obvious reasons lol
