Harvest Moon

The Good
The gameplay, the graphics, the wierd characters. Yes, it's a farming simulation, but it's a wicked farming simulation.

The Bad
It gets a little repetitive, but that's about it.

The Bottom Line
You play Jack, a young man who is given a farm that is ina state of disrepair by his parents. His job? In two years time, make that damn farm profitable, get the girl ( I always go for Maria) and have a bunch of fun in the process. It's not as polished as the (many) sequels, but this is a good beginning to a great series.
