One of my favorite games. Harvest Moon games sit on my top 5 game series. It came in plastic casing, an average waiting time for delivery, with the disc in great condition.

It is now 2006, and 6 years ago this game came out - let me tell you, I still love to play it! (Infact, I played it all day yesterday and all of this morning!) :)

Harvest Moon: Back To Nature is one of the best games I have ever played. And I play a lot of video games, believe me, and I rarely absolutely love love love a certain game - but this Harvest Moon game is absolutely an acception!

This game certainly fits the description of RPG: From raising live stock, to growing crops, this game has it all. Whoever knew farming would be so much fun? Befriend the townspeople, race your horse, and enter your cow in the Cow Festival. This game has everything. And, of course, meet the woman of your dreams, pop the question, and have children of your own.

Of course, it does become a burden, because everything in the game is so expensive, and your farm is so large and overgrown with weeds, boulders, and tree stumps in the beginning, that it tires you out. Especially when Winter rolls around - absolutely nothing grows in that season - no wild resources - and you cannot plant anything of your own. Unless, of course, you have a hot house, but you practically have to sell your soul to get one of those.

I've played this so much - and let me tell you, despite the harsh Winters and expenses, once you get that final house extension, and get your farm clean and have hundreds of crops, it feels great!

To sum up this game in one word - astounding. Sure, the game is fairly old, therefore the graphics aren't up to par, but they are still cute. Plus, who cares? With a game this fun, graphics are the last thing on your mind.

This is just a fun game. (Can I stress it enough?) Great for kids, teenagers - everybody.

Overall Rating:
Graphics: Old fashion, but still cute.
Sounds: Okay. Can get annoying and a bit repetitive at times.
Gameplay: Stunning. So fun, you'll never get bored. (Except maybe in Winter, in which not much is going on in the game)
Plot: Great.

The best game ever EVER!

I got into this game 2 years ago. It was my friends at the time and he let me borrow it for a long time so i called it mine. I was Playing this game for five hours a day (parents limit your child it will take over their life) I couldn't stop playing. I would get home from school and start playing and not stop until I went to bed. If i wasn't playing this game i was thinking about playing it. I went from a stright A student to making C's and D's. yes this is the best game ever but limit your self or it will take over your life.

IT WAS CUTE (DEFENTLY FOR KIDS)

2nd Review - Almost 5 Years Later

My original review of this game was: Harvest Moon for PSX - A game worth owning, January 3, 2001
Reviewer: "jamieinmn" (Jackson, MN United States)

Well, it is nearly 5 years later and I am still playing the game. I'm 24 years old now, and I'm not ashamed to say that the game is a lot of fun. I started a new game last monday and have been playing everyday for a week. I still use the player's guide I bought to help me decide which gifts to give to certain people and for the cooking recipies.

I am familiar with the game now, so there are no new surprises for me, but I find it fun to start a new game, and to try and be better than you were at the last game. For example, with my new game, I am trying to earn all the money I can, trying to get everyone to like me, and winning all of the competitions. For the first time, I was able to actually win the swimming competition. I did that just the other day.

This is still a great game. I would recommend getting it if you don't already own it. Obviously, it's not easy finding it like it was 5 years ago. But there are a few sellers here on Amazon that still offer it new. If that should ever change, you could probably find it at your nearest GameStop or any other place that buys, trades, and sells used video games and accessories.

In Summary: If you still don't own this game, shame on you. You've sure missed out these last 5 years! Buy It!

one of the best even with all the new ones coming out!

I love this game! I know that it has cheap grafics, but that's what's fun! There are plenty of choises to court.

Ann: A very shy (but cute) girl who loves to chear you up (she lives in the inn).
Mary: another very shy girl who wants to be a writer(she lives in the library).
Elli: She's very outgoing, but careful (she lives in the clinic).
Popuri: a very sencetive girl, but friendly(she lives at the Poultry Farm).
Karen: a pretty girl who wants to help, and she likes her privecy (she lives in the supermarket).

I just love this game to pieces. But remember, very bad grafics!

Toodles!

Funny, cute, hard work

This game ist like the others before: working on a farm, feeding your animals...but it is as funny as the others before, maybe more, 'cause you have more possibilities what you can do in this game. To be honest, you cannot explain what makes this game worth to buy it, you MUST play it by yourself, then you can see, what I mean!!
Have fun

Not the Usual Genre

Last year for christmas, I got a playstation one and Harvest Moon Back to Nature. This game is pretty great. First of all it's not the usual "shoot as many people as you can" type of game. Basically, you run a farm. I know, I know, you're probably rolling your eyes but trust me, there's more to the game than that. First, you have three years to build up the farm. You do this by buying animals (chickens, cows, sheep) and taking care of them. You also do this by growing a variety of crops (there are different crops for each season.), and by improving your house. This game never gets old. There are festivals to attend, people to talk too, wood to chop, hay to harvest, and a variety of of adventures to be had.
