The Best

Strengths: You get to raise horses, make friends with the animals. and a lot of different spouses to choose from.

Weakness: The time goes too fast, your dog cant do anything

This Harvest Moon is the best of the entire series. You can be a boy or a girl, raise horses and other different types of animals, get a pig, and can marry 10 different spouses. Ten for a boy and 10 for a girl. You can make friends with the animals that live in your town. You can buy different plots of land in the town and decorate it inside. Its a mix between Animal Crossing and Harvest Moon....

A farmer's life for me!

Strengths: -gender choice -plots of land -number of possible spouses

Harvest Moon: Magical Melody is, in my opinion, the greatest one to date. You can choose your gender which saves you the money of buying both a girl's version and boy's version. You can choose the plot of land best suited to you. The number of spouses you have to choose from has been vastly increased and you have many more town members to befriend. In this game you don't have to farm. You can...

A great experience for fans and newcomers alike

Strengths: Tons of choices: You can succeed in the game regardless of how you play it; Plant, farm location (that's new) and (many) spouse options are great. Plus it's kinda got that classic feel (a la N64, BTN)

Weakness: Graphics are a bit too childish, silly-looking for some tastes, especially the characters. Your character has a potbelly(!) But this can be overlooked, just as how quickly days progress.

Despite the drawbacks (which, hey, every game has) this installation is one of the greater ones to emerge of late. For those who experienced A Wonderful Life, or Save the Homeland, (which tried to be a bit more innovative and different than prior HMs) and weren't happy, this is good news. It has a good combination of new and old meshed together. But for people who've never played a Harvest Moon...

The best of all harvest moon series

Strengths: You will have a competiter this time. Therefore, you will need to try very hard to beat your competiter. Also, there are much more charecters in this game.

Weakness: The "time" in the game is too fast. You can only do only a few things a day.

This is the best of Harvest Moon series. The charecters in this game is much more compared to the previous generation. They will travel in and travel out. The special part of this generation is that you have stamina. If keep farming without eating any food, you will run out of your stamina and faint. The purpose of this game is to make havest goddes come alive. You have a farming rival in the...

Harvest Moon is Back!

Strengths: Lots of options for building a farm; plenty of mini-games; relaxing gameplay.

Weakness: The graphics could have been better.

Magical Melody offers bigger and more important choices than any Harvest Moon before it. You have a choice of playing as a boy or girl. All together, there are twenty different characters that you can marry – ten boys and ten girls. You get to choose between three different locations in your town for your house and farm. As with past Harvest Moon games, you can upgrade your house. The planting...

be a farmer!

Strengths: have the option to chose gender

Weakness: not too different from past game

Magical Melody is the latest Harvest Moon game. New to the cube version, this time you can chose between boy or girl. In this game there is a lot more to do, but it feels more of the same. It is worth checking out if you like the HM series, but skip it if you are looking for huge improvement.

Great Time Killer!

Strengths: more features than previous versions, replay value

Weakness: graphics

Great farming simulation on the cube! I loved the n64 version, but the other versions on the cube have been lacking. I picked up Magical Melody, boy this game has a lot more features over its predecessor by combining all the good things into one game. You are given more ranches, mini games, challenges, girls, and theres actually an objective to the game (save the harvest goddess) rather than just...

Perfect for Harvest Moon fans

Strengths: Can play either as a girl or a boy, mini games, less tedium in chores, classic harvest moon gameplay, cute and charming characters

Weakness: Graphics are starting to show its age, animations a little stiff, time clock advances too fast, not enough time in a day to get things done

Another Harvest Moon game from Natsume and this one is worth playing if you are a fan of the series. If you haven't ever played one before, this is just as good as any to start off to see what makes harvest moon such a charming and additive game. Magical Melody is a better one to start off with than the first ps2 Harvest Moon. I just wish natsume would update the graphics a bit, I dont mind the...
