Animal Crossing: City Folk

Posted on November 19th, 2008 in Latest Info by GamePro.com
If you look close enough, you can trace the casual roots of today's Nintendo back to the GameCube's quirky runaway phenomenon, Animal Crossing. The game's latest incarnation, Animal Crossing: City Folk feels and plays extremely natural on Nintendo's flagship family-friendly console and feels right at home with wii-mote and nunchuck in hand. For gamers taking their first trip to Animal Crossing, City Folk will be paradise. For fans of both the original as well as the DS incarnation, it might be a bit too familiar of a journey.

THE BOTTOM LINE: Animal Crossing: City Folk is cut from the same cloth as the first two titles in the series, meaning it's fun, laid-back, and easy to play in short spurts. However, the lack of change and truly innovative gameplay features means it won't attract folks who hated the series or have been burnt out on comingling with talking fauna.
