In 2002, I was on the internet and came across Animal Crossing on a video game website. I instantly was drawn into this weird, kiddie-looking game. When i first saw the screen shots, i was so excited and knew i wanted this game immediately. Animal Crossing is the game that never ends. Really. It's a game that lives and breathes in real time! Which means, if it's Christmas here, it's Christmas on Animal Crossing! Starting the game, you are on a train, and answer questions to determine what your character will look like. There are many different faces you could end up with. You start out with a small house and by paying your loan to the post office, you could get expansions to your house, like an upstairs or a basement. Animal Crossing offers something most games don't: your own life. In AC, you choose your life! Pick the clothes you wear, put different furniture in your house, or make designs for your shirts or umbrellas! There is so much to do in AC! Fish, hunt for bugs, go to the island, talk to the villagers, mail your friends in your village, by furniture, wallpaper, carpet, and clothes, and even visit other towns with other memory cards! If you have a GameCube, and 20 bucks, buy this game! NOW! WARNING: This game is very addictive!!! -perfect(10/10)
Animal Crossing is the best video game I've played. But, my parents took it away because i was brainwashed. So, I cannot play it anymore. But, the days I had it were the best days. I loved every character. I loved how you can design your own house and plant gardens, and buy stuff. You can make your character anything you like to. I made mine a Chemical Romance Lover! I dressed him up and black and designed My Chemical Romance clothes. And Animal Crossing has a lot of home designs. My house was all modern. I think Animal Crossing is a place where you can be you. The name of my town was Blueford. I loved that town very much. My player's name was Simmie. Anywho, I'd give it a ten, but the thing is that I want a small house, not a big one. Tom Nook is forcing you to go through hard labor. If you got the last house upgrade. You have to pay like about 700,000 dollars. So I give it a nine.
I played this game a couple of years ago at a friend's house, and the moment I got into the game, I was hooked! I thought it was one of the most interesting games I had ever played. It's even better than some of those action games that I usually play! I just got the game on the last weekend of July, and I've played everyday since then. In fact, I even got my older sister who is 18 and my little brother who is 13 to start playing the game. Now we compete with each other over who's going to play next. My sister and I live in one village and my little brother lives in another. After playing the game for not even a month, I have already gotten my house to be what I believe is the biggest house you can get in the game. I might be wrong though. Anyway, some of the neighbors are not the best neighbors in the world. That's okay, though. Unfortunately, we've all had to deal with neighbors moving away to and moving into our villages. The game can sometimes make you angry when it decides that it doesn't want you to find the best bugs and fish right away. It also makes Tom Nook, the owner of your town's store, close his store for a whole day to remodel his store. That has often gotten on my sister's nerves, mostly because I'm usually the one that makes it happen by paying off my debt really quickly. Trust me, though, it's worth it when he reopens the next day. This game is one of the best games ever! I highly recommend it for all ages. Particularly if you are under 20 or something and want to get a sense of what it's like to have to deal with debts that can be overwhelming at times. Maybe we will all get a sense of what our parents feel? A definite 10/10.
AC is the worst game ever for the Nintendo GameCube, there's no story, no plot, no object at all, no goal, no nothing! All you do is run around like a chicken with it's head cut off and collect Bells and waste time, that's it! All it is a big time waster, don't play this game, really it's not worth it!
1/10 stars.

This game has you as a main character going to a new town and setting up a home. You get to meet your various animal neighbors and do a few things such as fishing or bug collecting. You progress in real time so whatever day it is on your gamecube it is that time in animal crossing. For awhile this is somewhat fun, however, over time the game seemed more like a chore than a fun game to play. If I decorated my house wrong I was blasted, the animals kept expecting you to visit. What really got on my nerves is that at first new animals would move in and that was neat and then some would move away, but after awhile the only ones that would move out was the newest one that just came. I would have liked it to be more random. Also, the fishing and stuff got old and I would have liked a few more things to do. They had special days when there would be festivals in town and I thought maybe you could do some new things then, but all you can do is watch the other animals do stuff while you just do your stuff as normal. Also, I am a night person and I would have liked to see at least one habitant of the town not be in bed after a certain time leaving me to wander the town alone. Still, I am betting if you had a friend who had a town and you could visit this game would have been more fun. All in all it has its moments, but for me it wore thin, however it did have me hooked for a bit. So I will not say avoid it, I just think it is a case of it not being for me.
