Farm with Alice Greenfingers
by Jasmin Malik Chua, Jersey City, USA on 09.23.07
Get a taste of the farming life, without actually getting your hands mucky, with Alice Greenfingers, a PC game you can download from Yahoo Games.
In this entertaining (and deceptively simple) simulation, you get to sow, water, and harvest a wide variety of crops—plus, raise your own mini-barnyard—and then bring your produce to the town market, where you have to adjust prices according to the vagaries of a fickle customer base.
The full version costs $19.99, but you can play an extensive trial version for free. ::Alice Greenfingers
Why not just grow your own garden? PS3 or this... I"ll pass. Not to mention that ur wasting electricity by spending time playing this game.
Another farming video game franchise is "Harvest Moon". There are 20 games in the series out, with two more announced and upcoming, and they're available for Super Nintendo, Gameboy, Nintendo 64, Game Boy Colour, Playstation, Playstation 2, Game Boy Advance, GameCube, Nintendo DS, PSP and Wii. The upcoming title "Harvest Moon Online" is apparently going to be for PC (and the Playstation and Playstation 2 titles will play on the Playstation 3).
Ya, why not go out and get you hands muddy? Then you can actually eat what you grow.
Why play SimCity? Why not go out and start building your own town? Why play Doom? Why not go out and start shooting people for real? Why play Asteroid? Why not build a spaceship and blow up asteroids for real?
"Ya, why not go out and get you hands muddy? Then you can actually eat what you grow."
good, then don't buy it.
Aw, Harvest Moon and the like are cute, and good clean fun. Not everyone can go buy themselves a couple of acres in the country to farm, but anyone with a PC or a video game console can play a sim game.
And even if you do garden, you can play a sim in the winter.
