AlanE.Feb 2, 2004I think this is a great game very addictive only slight downside is limited space to grow crops compared to "Harvest Moon Back to Nature."

JamieW.Jan 2, 2004I have been waiting forever for this game!! Harvest Moon has always been fabulous. Even the Super Nintendo version was so awesome and exciting. I'm so excited about it being for Game Cube, and the best part is that the new release date (that horrible thing) is a day after my birthday! Woohoo, I can't wait to lay my hands on the new Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life.

BouncerJ.Feb 8, 2004I love Harvest Moon 64, but never got the chance to play the PS1 or Gameboy versions. Can't wait for it to come out for Gamecube.....but will it come out for XBox and PS2 maybe? That would be sweet! They'd better not delay it again when March arrives! >:(

JenA.Mar 4, 2004These people r sexist, why can't they have one game for girls and boys? the game is nice n all but wheres the respect for us girls who like to play it?
-
-
RyanMar 5, 2004jen a. they are making a version of the game for girls....it comes out later this year supposedly. Although i dont like to vote before the game comes out i will vote on this as i am a harvest moon fan and cant wait for it to come out.

T-WillyRockmandenedMay 5, 2004This has to be one of the best games ever. I rented it from game fly and I didn't know why, but when I got the game it was the best game ever. It's the best for game cube, but halo is still the best game ever.
-
-
JustinB.May 9, 2004Its a great game.
-
-
KailyS.Jul 2, 2004This game is a mind-blowing experience and will be cherished for years to come. With its innocent nature and endearing environment, for those of us who prefer non-violent video games, this is sure to become a classic.
-
-
ChaseH.Jul 29, 20041 word...AWESOME!

-
KirstieW.Nov 27, 2005the game is really cool but...after playing it for awhile its gets pretty boring but if u just go away for a while and then come back and play its not boring anymore.

MelissaB.Aug 3, 2005I think it was really good! The girls were easy to woo and it was very nice. I liked it but it should have a little more characters and some more festivals! Other than that it was sooo cool!!!!!!!!
-
-
GriffinB.Jul 3, 2007This is truly a great game. It never gets boring. I like how your child can actually grow, unlike Friends of Mineral Town. Of all the HM games I have played, this was the best by far. Good job, Natsume!
-
-
JacquesL.Nov 21, 2003The best Harvest Moon game yet!

Ivan???Jul 27, 2003This game looks great. Especially with the combined efforts of Ubi Soft and Natsume, Im sure this new Harvest Moon game will pull through to be great.

CaronJ.Mar 26, 2004I love this game cuz Nami is HOT like ME!!!
-
-
JoshP.Mar 26, 2004This game totally SUCK!! its so stupid. Who in there right mind would want to be a farmer. And the girls are not even close to being cute. And just in case you haven't noticed...things are spelled wrong!!
-
-
LukeD.Mar 3, 2004This is one of my most anticipated games as of now. I like how their keeping all of the old elements, just improving them and adding more. My only complaint would be the short years (10 days for a season[4 seasons]) and only 3 brides to choose from.
-
-
kkS.Mar 3, 2004This looks like one of the best HM games yet. I really look forward to the GBA-GCN connectivity.
-
-
RachelC.Apr 11, 2004This game rocks so much. To tell the truth this is one of those stay up till 3:30 am games! ive done it quite a few times and im only on my seconed year! so much damn fun. Apart from some misspelled words like *be*...they spelled it as B....very strange to spell such a short word wrong... anyhoo a definite buy, buy iy! you will love it...i married Celia!
-
-
H.H.Apr 17, 2004This game is good.
-
-
LeeL.Apr 3, 2004Ive really enjoyed the game so far and have been seriously hooked to it like every other good harvestmoon, I have especially enjoyed the fact that the game is not just about your farm but more about raising a family and using the farm to support them.
-
-
ProphetianMay 12, 2004It's one of the best games i have played ever.Great graphics and so much to do.
-
-
DarrenW.Jun 7, 2004This game is a must play to people who are inrested in harvest moon.
-
-
GyroidM.Sep 2, 2004I really loved this game like the others but i think some of u r giving it to harsh of a coment to realise that u say thoughs thing because u r used to shooting and killing ....
-
-
TravisC.Mar 1, 2005This game ROCKS! The graphics kick @$$ too.
-
-
NevermindApr 3, 2005This game does rock!You can make goals,you can't expect them to give all of them to you! That makes fun freedom in the game! There is one major goal, to make a great farm!
-
-
CarlyK.May 27, 2005This is such an awesome game! No blood or fighting just good wholesome fun!
-
-
MichS.Jun 24, 2005AAAAHHH! i absolutely luv Harvest moon! im goin on Ebay 2 get the old ones! all hail Natsume! PS: luv the graphics, and the cows kick @$$!

GabrielN.Jul 21, 2005Its a really cool game because it never really seems to end, and its really cresative, because you cant just kill anything, and its kinda based on real life (exept for the harvest godess, kappas ect.)
-
-
AndyE.Jul 4, 2005Everyone that likes farming I suggest this game, it's really cool. By the way, if you want to be a girl, go and buy Harvest Moon: Another Wonderful Life (For Girl).

[Anonymous]Mar 16, 2004The game just looks supurb. I have yet to get it, but it sounds great.
-
-
SuzukuT.Mar 19, 2004Better than anything i have ever seen!!! ^_^
-
-
KristenMar 26, 2004The only reason i am giveing it a 8 is because i don't own it yet. But what i have seen looks really awesome!! the screenshots make the game look really cool. i liked playing Harvest Moon on the 64 and this is going to be even better. Can't wait to have the girl verson. But since that might be a while i can't wait to play this game!!!

EricL.Apr 29, 2004Good, still think the SNES original was better.
-
-
MaxC.Jun 17, 2004I am a huge fan of Harvest Moon, and this game has something that is...new to the seris. Although it does not have all of the charm of the earlier games, it still is obviously part of the Harvest Moon family. It seems to emphisis the farming aspects more than social at the beggining.
-
-
ElmerM.May 16, 2005A good game but its needs more seeds that are on real life.
-
-
NicoleJ.May 24, 2005The best gc game i have ever played! Nicole
-
-
DanielleJ.May 28, 2005I really like this game its fun with all the different things happening like lots of surprises the only thing i dont give it credit for is why cant you choose to be a girl or a boy i mean whats the deal with these boys girls can do the same thing.
-
-
NUggyF.May 29, 2005Kewl game.

ps--ADOREME..Jul 22, 2005

ClintM.Feb 28, 2006I like this game because it is just like managing a real life. I like how you can sell things and order stuff in the ledger. I think The ledger could be like ordering things online or when you pick up your money from the dairy shipping bin could be like putting things on e-bay. It`s a realistic game and I like it.
-
-
Zachc.Dec 11, 2003I cant wait to play this game! i played the first harvest moon game and fell in love with it from the start!
-
-
DanielH.Dec 17, 2003This is a hugely addictive game with crisp graphics and great gameplay. I would recommend it to all.
-
-
SandraV.Dec 31, 2003I have waited TOO LONG for this game to come out, i mean, its obvious that its gonna be a great game, just as the ones before it, but... this is cruel... first they said that it was going to be out on summer 2002, then September 2002, August 2003, January 2004 and now... til March... NO WAY! I've waited to long...plis... i want it now...
-
-
Jul 14, 2011This game is legitimately one of my favorite games on the Gamecube, ever. For something, that is in it's most simplistic sense, a farm simulator, it never manages to get boring. I plan to buy it soon, for I sold my Gamecube years ago, and enjoy all the farming fun again. Excellent work!

It's a life you'd want to live, and it's a truly refreshing escape from the pressures of reality into an imaginary utopia poised on the edge of an ocean.

Edge MagazineMuch of the enjoyment comes from the awe and wonder at discovering the simple things in the world. Where previous Harvest Moon titles encouraged workaholic tendencies the thrill here is in experimentation. [Apr 2004, p.105]
