NOT a kids game.

My son, who is now ten, has played this game for a few years and, I admit, seems to love it. But be careful, the characters in this game can be very hostile and cruel. Just this evening I read one of the dialogs as my son was playing and could not believe the underlying hostility, and the word "stupid" appeared in one of the dialogs refering to my sons character. This game is not appropriate for a young audience and the makers of the game should be ashamed of themselves for marketing it to a young audience. I was very leary of the sarcasm of the characters when my son first started playing the game. Just keep in mind if you are going to purchase this game for a child, the characters in the game get increasingly cold, heartless, and cruel. For me, the game has crossed the line of what I want my son playing.

Animal Crossing Is really fun the first week but after that it gets boring and you have go back like every week to pull weeds and check mail and pay off your debt to Tom Nook,And that is not all!!!!!So I wouldn't recomend this game unless you like sim games that are EXACTLY like real life.

I was so excited when I got this game. So excited that I ended up playing it day in and day out, thinking it was the greatest thing since sliced bread. Then one day it hit me... this is the WORST disgrace to gaming I've ever seen. I left the Gamecube that day, feeling rather depressed that I had wasted so much time on it. It makes me depressed just thinking of being depressed about it. This game is junk.

Although I guess I'm a bit biased, since real-time games were always irritating to me. I just didn't fancy the concept that you had to plan your life around a video game. But I wouldn't be so upset if this game had more to offer... I mean, Nintendo could've done SO much more with this. Once you finish working at Tom Nook's, you're left to wander around town, running the same errands for people over and over and OVER.

My friend was brainwashed by the thing, so I gladly handed it over as a birthday present (with me being filled with sinister glee as I did so). I would not reccomend this, unless you happen to be an easily entertained 6-year old.

Living on your own?

This game teaches kids how to live on their own when they get older. They can build their own house and you get cool furniture and clothes too! They love it!

Animal Crossing sounds great! I've read so much about it and I am getting it on the first day! A word of advice. If you like this game look into harvest moon games! btn and 64 are the best. Animal crossing is a communication game that can last for years due to its internal clock. You can buy nes games for your house, design your clothes, get graded on decorating, go on treasure hunts, catch bugs, and so much more. But don't get fooled buy its cute appearace, it will be awesome!

I am not sure how anyone could actually like or enjoy this game

I put this game in my Game Cube for about ten minutes and had to remove it. My friend came over and wanted to see why I said it was like torture to play that game and he realized it as I stared away from the screen while it was being played. I considered snapping this game in two and flushing it down my toilet, but that might be too good for it. This game is much worse than games that are so boring or easy that you sleep while you play through them. It is indeed torturous because of the noises that the animals make while they talk, so that you cannot sleep through the game while you play it. The answer to this problem is simply do not play it. Fortunately, I bought it used and it sits in my collection, but is not played. I bought it because so many critics gave it excellent reviews, but the critics can and quite often are wrong about games. I may give it another chance someday, but not anytime soon. Hey Nintendo, I have a great idea for a spin-off of this game. The spin-off would be called The Incredible Hulk Ultimate Destruction of Animal Crossing, in which the Hulk has to go around and smash the animals of Animal Crossing and their surroundings. And the Hulk would have all the incentive he needs as soon as he would see and hear the annoying talking of these animals and their annoying behaviors. Hulk smash, good Hulk. Nintendo, at least consider a spin-off called Batman Vengeance on Animal Crossing, in which Batman uses all his Bat Weapons/Arsenal/Utilities and his stealth abilities to take vengeance on the animals of Animal Crossing. On a positive note for Animal Crossing, it might be potentially liked by children that like to play house, but it would probably be better for children to play house the old-fashioned way with their friends.

Boundless fun? Give me a break!

When it comes to video games, my area of expertise is found in "real-world" concept titles, such as Animal Crossing. The problem is, Animal Crossing lacks major missing elements that greatly take away from what could have been, a great game.

If you've ever played TheSims, you know the possibilities at hand. If you've played Animal Crossing, you'd have to be kidding yourself to claim this title ensures the "many possibilities" many other reviewers have proclaimed. I just don't get it. Hundreds of reviewers giving Animal Crossing such positive acclaim and applause. I read the reviews, I read the lies of such "greatness" and "creativity". The "boundless fun". Please, it just doesn't add up to me.

Not all of Animal Crossing is bad. The real time concept was impressive, yet risky. I found myself playing 75% of the time at night, with no sight of daylight because I have to work! To continue on the downside of Animal Crossing; You have lame activities (very lame), poor housing imporvement features, neighbors who are ALWAYS smiling, all condensed into a very limited surrounding.

Shortly after I bought my GameCube, I read the many positive reviews for Animal Crossing, and was very convinced this would be a phenomenal gaming experience. So of course I purchased Animal Crossing. I should have read more into the negative reviews, because those for the most part were on point. Hopefully, you'll take my review into consideration. Stay away.

this game is complete garbage. the game is riddled with hundreds of cutesy little sound effects annoying music and grocely cute gay little animals. everything in the game looks the same. it is a small cutesy little preschool world. all you do is run around looking for another cute animal to talk to. you cant die there is zero gameplay and apseouloutely no innivation or challenge at all. there is nothing i mean nothing to do the gameplay consists of walking around the same cutesy little place as before. this game is certainly not fun its not even mindless fun. its not even fun for people that like a challenge free cute game. as an 17 year old i find it horrible even a 4 year old would be too advanced for this crap. whatever you do avoid this horrible game at all costs.
