Animal Crossing: Wild World Review

Animal Crossing: Wild World



Description

Animal Crossing: Wild World is a unique game out for the Nintendo DS. Released in the UK on March 31st 2006, AC:WW is possibly one of the greatest virtual reality games for DS that we see today. Hopefully we shall see a sequel coming to Wii sometime during 2008.

Features

AC:WW is packed with many amazing features, sure to provide endless entertainment for all. It uses the DS'S internal clock system, which changes the game in a variety of ways. For example, day and night, Summer and Winter. It's just like an ordinary year. It's also compatible with Nitendo WiFi connection, which makes the game that much more worthwhile. Over WiFi, you can visit friends towns, meet the neighbors, go to parties, have competetions, you name it. Or if you desire, you can even host your own games. Some websites use forums to plan parties or trades. I personally think this is excellent! It allows you to get the most from the game!

Graphics

It's not fair for us to expect any dazzling graphics from this game. Unfortunately the Nintendo DS i unable to provide us with that. However, the graphics aren't as bad as you would think. They appear to be quite cute and cartoony, which makes this game less real, but it makes the game more enjoyable for the younger audiences. Some aspects of the game however look a little 2D, but most items are 3D. Overall, the graphics are satisfactory.

General Concept

AC:WW doesn't really have any objectives. Basically, it's a game you can never complete. This doesn't mean you should stomp your foot and go "There isn't anything to do!" Oh no, there is still plenty of things to do. If there were any objectives, number one would be look after your town. It's always pleasing to compare the condition of your town over WiFi (Boasting Opportunity Here!) The second one would be to have a large circle of friends. You can have a maximum of 8 villagers inhabiting your town, so there is an opportunity to have 8 friends within your town. (How lonely!) Or there's freinds over WiFi, which you can have 40 of! The third would be to improve your household. Having a good house doesn't in paticluar provide anymore fun than anything else in the town, but you can show this off to your friends too. AC:WW is perfect for boasting about! The fourth objective I can think of would be to fill your catalog. This way you can now get every item in the game. (A little sense of completion)
