I have all three games for the playstation/2, and this is my favorite. I don't even notice any "choppy" graphics or anything. The music is pretty cool, and you can find and buy more records to change it. The character does move quite slow, but after a while you get use to it. And then when you get a horse, the problem is basically eliminated.
If you only have a playstation 2 and have never played A Wonderful Life/Another Wonderful Life for the Game cube, you'll LOVE this game.
If you do have a game cube and have played either of those games, you may not like this game so much.
You only have four festivals, one every season which are each 10 days long. But the days are very long, so you don't have to worry about not having enough time to do anything.
This game is very addicting, as I have been playing it all weekend and am in Chapter 2. The children are adorable, and great bundles of joy. You can snuggle, pat, talk, and throw/catch them. Your wife does help out a little bit, and leaves the house.
You can do different things to influence your childs, future and interests.
There are many animals to choose from, even ducks, you can also get different colored horses. You can even chose if you want a son or daughter by talking to the pot in the Sprites place untill it say you win, then talk to the harvest sprites and chose. You also have the ability to now marry Lumina.
And it is also, by far, my favorite harvest moon game.
I'd say you should rent it first, and decide if it's for you from that.
The best EVER!!!!!

This is a great game! I only have 2 complaints! Trust me I usually find 9 or more! They are that it is a little slow and it is also dark in the mornings. But it has good graphics, sound, and gameplay. The "heart" scenes are also better.
Happy Harvesters

I bought this game for my 11 year old daughter. She'd played it at her friend's house, and loved it. It is charming! Everyone in out family loves it. No overly annoying music, and no fast moving or realistic graphics. This is a great game in which you are a farmer, you must buy farm animals and supplies, court and wed a wife, raise a family, etc. No blood, no gore. Great for families with old fashioned values.
Not everyone will like this game because it is NOT flashy or loud or violent, BUT MY FAMLIY LOVES IT!!!
The Little Farmer in all of us

Harvest Moon - A Wonderful Life- Special Edition, is a wonderful game that allows children to have fun while learning some of lifes important lessons.
In this game your child will become a young farmer who must make his farm a success. There are animals to feed and take care of, cows to milk, chickens who lay eggs, a dog that you'll need to train and feed, and crops to plant and harvest.
The game also allows for social interaction between your childs character and several other people who live in Forget-me-not Valley.
I recommend this game to anyone with children who might enjoy this type of game, it isn't fast paced with too much going on to keep the child focused on their task at hand.
Great game

Harvest Moon - Special edition is a very fun game to play. You take on the role of being a farmer, convincing a girl to marry you, things like that. So if you want to have fun with a harvest moon game, buy it!
there is just one thing i'd like to say. i saw that someone put questions as a review, and asked not to vote. CAN ANY OF YOU READ?!?!!!! 6 people voted that it wasnt helpful. sure, it isnt, because it's just questions, but that person just asked not to vote, because there was no need to.
anyway, this game is a good game.
Fun and exciting

This game is sooo much fun. But please explain to me what the levels mean for my character when I check under assets. (AP, ST, SP) Also, how do I know whether or not my cow is pregnant. Nothing gives me any indication not to mention I do not own a bull yet. I keep giving her animal medicine, but the cow levels keep going down. What can i do to stop it? These things are not in the manuel. None-the-less, I'm growing crops and trying to make friends. I play this game for at least 8 hours each time.
Yea!
