Kapoutman 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2006 I was searching for a new DS game after completing Partners in Time and picking up Tetris DS. Several co-workers toild me that Animal Crossing Wild World was absolutely awesome despite the childish look and weird gameplay. They say it's addictive, and since I despise anything "The Sims", they assured me that it wasn't anything like that. I read reviews of the game and they say it's pretty good, but I just need some more opinions of people who have played it before picking it up. So, who has played this game, and what's your opinion of it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ced 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2006 I owned it for a good three months before I sold it off. You basically harvest stuff to make cash to expand your house and fill it with trinkets. I liken it to Harvest Moon except in real time (the in-game time mimics the time on your DS's internal clock) and without the date sim aspect. There's a few side things like collecting fish and bugs for the museum and using the wireless feature to visit other people's towns. I had my fun with it, but if The Sims isn't your bag, I honestly wouldn't recommend it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Use Your Illusion 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2006 I know this has nothing to do with what you asked, but how did you find Partners In Time? I've been debating whether or not to get that one this month, however Metal Gear Acid 2 seemed a tad more appealing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kapoutman 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2006 If you liked Superstar Saga on the GBA, you're gonna love Partners in Time. It's a bit shorter than the first one, although not as short as reviewers say it is. The history with the alien invasion in Mushroom Kingdom is a funny one, and it is honestly the game that made me laugh the most since Conker's Bad Fur Day. I like gameplay with one button for each partner, and while it is not a difficult game, you'll still get enough mileage out of it to make it a purchase worth your money. Highest recommendations on that game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wanted some extra money for Beatmania, which hopefully should be in today (Tuesday). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scroby 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2006 I still have my Animal Crossings because I'm a fan of the series. Its good and become addicting if you play it long enough but it gets to a point where if you start playing it a lot, you play it for only a little bit each day and it starts to loose it's appeal but anyways, the game is good. It might be better if your able to do the wi-fi thing with the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
