gReEn ThUmB...
it all started when i tried exploring the wonders of different kinds of emulators (a system that enable the PC to run games of other consoles, such as PS, GBA, SNES). i first tried the emulator for Nintendo's SNES (ZSNES) where i started playing games such as Donkey Kong Jr., Mario's World and other Nintendo genre, then i shifted to the Game Boy Advance emulator (Visual Boy Advance) just to play Pokemon Gold... And then after my PlayStation broked down i started to gain interest on another type of emulator, that is the PlayStation emulator (ePSXe) where i actually finished games like, Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy VIII and IX, and Legend of Legaia...
After a while, i suddenly found myself, downloading tons of roms for my emulators... and then one day, i became curious of one of the titles available for the SNES... that is HARVEST MOON... i said to myself, what kind of a stupid game is this? who would be intrested in planting crops, raising chickens and cows and then harvesting them to earn money?... but when i started playing it... gradually, it tooked most of my time wondering what will happen next...
the gameplay is simple... you played the role of a boy sent out by his family to an old ranch and his objective is to raise that ranch for 2 1/2 years. A full year consists of 4 seasons with 30 days each and you'll play each day for about 5 mins... it's all up to you to decide what to do next... it's either you chop woods, crush stones, pull out weeds, plant crops, raise chickens, brush and milk your cows, go to town festivals, relax in the mountain spa, play with your dog, ride your horse and the most intresting part here is you can court girls and then eventually marry her and have a maximum of 2 children... isn't it fun!!! yeah ... i know it's like the SIMS but with its own unique twist that made farming a little bit interesting and fun... right now, i've downloaded another version of this farming simulaton game... "Harvest Moon: Friends of the Mineral Town"... and this time it's on a different console, it's from the Game Boy Advance console... but i think, i'll never be able to play this game... because right now, i'm just wasting my free time, just enjoying the last minutes of my semi-vacation 'cause starting on monday (may 29) i'll be attending my review classes... and obviously, no more COMPUTERS for me, at least for the mean time... and i guess, the next update of this blog will be on october...
