Animal Crossing

"From what we have played of Animal Forest, the game is very promising. Its artistic visuals and unique "communication" aspects should make it an interesting title."

"It's very easy to be immersed in the virtual world, and for this much it's a game that can be enjoyed over a long time span to come. Animal Crossing is definitely the type of game that you can play for 15-30 minutes every so often."

"Animal Crossing doesn't offer any intense challenge like traditional action or adventure games are supposed to...anyone can play it and succeed. Even still, there's always a sense of accomplishment with everything you can do in this game...it's an extremely satisfying experience. And after playing the Japanese and US versions for several months now, I can honestly say the fun will continue for a very, very long time."

"Tired of video games that run out of steam far too quickly? An exciting new role-playing game has been released for Nintendo's GameCube, and it's likely to garner a huge following."

"Taking a nod from The Sims, Nintendo’s latest transports Gamecube gamers into a whole new world filled with talking animals and interesting ways to make money. Animal Crossing is a weird one, that’s for sure, but it’s also an addictive and fun one. Just don’t expect your new neighbors to be very smart."
