Advantages: addictive gameplay that keeps you playing

Disadvantages: you may forget about other things, like eating...

Some people say heroin and crack cocaine are addictive, these people haven't lived! They should try playing Harvest moon on the gamecube, then they will know how something can grip your life, even when you don't want it to!

Harvest moon is a game in which you run a farm. I know that it sounds like the worst game ever, but the repetitive planting, watering, weeding, milking and egg collecting is strangely attractive and it will keep you playing for hours, if just to be able to afford the butter maker, or to woo your future wife.

I think it is hard to understand how fun and addictive the game can be unless you have played it for a while yourself. The first hour or so of playing it can seem rubbish, but if you give up then its too bad.

The graphics are ok, the water looks nice but it has a cartoony feel to it. The village is fairly large which you can walk around almost anywhere, fishing, mining or talking to villagers. You can even get married and have a child!

Summary: A truly addictive game that is satisfying.
