This game is soooooo frustrating! Everytime I save the game and not play for awhile, I turn it back on all the saved data is erased! I hope Natsume has improved on Harvest Moon 3!

This is an amazing game to play. It's good for children at least 10 or 11. There are some complications, and the kids might not know how to play. It took me a while to ajust to the game, and I'm 13! It's almost like the PS version, but not as clear graphics. I think it's better than the PS versions, because of the gameshark codes. I have never used them, but Ii'm looking forward to renting it on Gameboy Color, and buying the Gameshark, not only for that certain game, but for all my other Gamboy Color games.
As cool as a farming simulation can be!

Harvest moon is a great series. It is about farming. If you don't like wasting time moving around and doing virtual chores, don't get it. That means it is not boring. I bought HM2 once, and played it constantly. I was addicted! Unfortunately, I lost it in a move, and I was drawn here by it's low price without the auctions on eBay. I plan on buying it again. It's that good. If you want a better knowledge of the game, and whether you should get it, try Ushi no Tane. Just search on google or something for Ushi no Tane, which is THE BEST Harvest Moon 2 site I have ever seen. You'll learn anything you need to know there.

Even though I don't own this game I play it with my friend. It is a farming simulator. You can have kids help you on the farm and you can also give stuff to people I recommend it.

This games is okay. When you first get the game it is kind of fun but then it gets boring. You do the same thing everyday over and over again. There might be something new everyonce in a while but still it is really boring.
throw it out

Once you start, you come to this village.you can't leave it until you have visited every shop and that takes awhile. When you get back to the farm, you can't find anything because you don't know your way around and you can't find the farm map and even if you can find the map, you can't get places cause it is out of order in comparision to the map.you tire out yourself just by walking around and cutting up plants. you can't do anything else. my opinion is don't buy the game. it is a waste of money. very disappointing.
Lame game

this game wasn't too good. when I try to plant whatever i was going to plant i just kept pulling out the shovel and digging. the directions didn't tell me what i needed to know. i do not recommend this game.

Well I started out playing Harvest Moon 64 I liked it. it changes every time you play the game. So i Picked up Harvest Moon 2 for the GBC have multi endings. some gamers say they have more than one ending this one does not say that. the problem is you cannot marry and have a kid. this is the draw back of HM2. also upgrading your farm takes longer thats the best part I think. So if your a Vet in the world of sims and whanna play a crossover RPG play this game. but do not Compare this Harvest Moon Game to HM1, HM64, HM Back to Nature.
Game or Real Life?

I personally thought this game would be fun and a long played out game for road trips, boy was I wrong. Sure it was fun at first, but then you just wait for everything to happen. The message board hardly changes and you do the same thing every day. (That's the game's day) Fun points, It is long and pretty easy. I beat it on on very long road trip. Second, the mini-games are fun. (Better than the actual game)
