My personal review and some players' thoughts:Do you love to have a farm? :)The premise of Harvest Moon is pretty simple, at first - you are a city kid who happens to wander upon a farmer who decides to pass away his run down farm to you, with one condition, that you make it profitable in an year. At the beginning, after getting introduced to the townsfolk that live right next to the farm, you're set free to do whatever you want with the land you received. Each day consists of a 12 hour shift that roughly takes ten real minutes to pass - in that period, crops have to be planted or watered, cows and chickens have to be tended and eventual visits to town and the outskirts have to be made. Days also have random weather effects, like rain, sun or even snow. These can be previewed at the TV loc

The Farmers Guilds of both Canada and the United States of America are lobbying against Marvelous Interactive, the creators of the ever popular Harvest Moon video game series.
John Horton, spokesperson for the Farmers Guild of Canada spurred this cause in to action after witnessing his children avoiding chores at dawn -- instead devoting more attention to doing chores and farming tasks inside of the Harvest Moon world.
I watched the most beautiful harvest moon rise tonight. Unfortunately, I was riding in the car on our way home from dinner and did not have my camera with me. So as soon as I got home I tried to get some pics, of course with the horses in them. And it took a while for them to settle down while I was there in the pasture with them that by the time they decided to stop nudging me and poking at the camera that the moon wasn't as orange as it was when I first went out there.Please visit http://midwesthorse.blogspot.com/index.html

Harvest Moon is probably the most addicting game that I've come across. I have played it on different platforms like SNES, gameboy color & advance, N64 and playstation. The game will never be complete without the dog and of course, the cows. These animal papercrafts are very easy to build with only a page of parts each.Harvest Moon
We’re having a great time with the game. Might actually buy it. It’s a borrowed copy. Finally got a fishing pole. This game is really tough though. Managing time is not something I’m good at haha. I have one small plot of pumpkins, a couple trees that aren’t even growing, and I’ve been to the mine. I’m almost into Fall now I think and I’m still not getting anywhere. It’s much harder that the other HM games I’ve played. Or maybe I just don’t remember how it was to play them. Hmmmm.
I can’t figure out when to call the TV shopping. Maybe I’ll get that worked out this afternoon. Tough game, but very fun.
I found this site Ushi No Tane x6 for Harvest Moon DS, plus there’s always the trusty GameFaqs writeups for just about any game out there, that link goes to the HMDS section. Though I found the Ushi site much more helpful, plus it’s cute as can be.
I’m nauseous from the sme
System: GBADev: MarvelhousePub: NatsumeRelease: July 2005Players: 1Someone at Natsume had a brainstorm. It's not the biggest and brightest storm I've ever encountered but it has the potential to be big news to the developers and publishers of videogames.Harvest Moon: More Friends of Mineral Town is virtually identical to the two-year old version of Friends of Mineral Town except that it's played from the perspective of the opposite sex. The original game featured a boy farmer. This version features a female version. I know that this worked for Ms. Pac-Man but I don't think that programmers ever thought it would work for other games. As a review I think it's just an annoying gimmick designed to milk a popular formula. But if this game becomes popular we might see games such as Splinter Cell Starring Samantha Fisher or Maxine Payne.How different is this game from its testosterone-fuelled counterpart? Not much. I'm not being a chauvinist when I say that the premise is highly unreali
Neil Young - Harvest Moon(1992)(Re-Post)320kbpsThe year of the 20th anniversary of the release of his most popular album, Harvest, Neil Young released a new album that harked back to that recording, employing many of the same musicians, again dubbed the Stray Gators, as well as arranger Jack Nitzsche and background singers Linda Ronstadt and James Taylor. He also used a similar folk-country acoustic style and sang songs that often had a personal, confessional tone. But the similarities were more of form than of content because, while Harvest was the statement of a confused, if earnest, 26 year old, Harvest Moon embodied the ruminations of a somewhat regretful 46 year old. Indeed, the greatest comparison to be made between the two records was that Young tried to use the passage of time as a confirmation of continuity. In the first several songs, he seemed to be trying to reconcile with his wife and revive their love, though he was uncertain that was possible. In "One of These Days," he

:
"The next Full Moon peaks on Friday, October 6th at 8:13 PM PDT at 14 degrees of Libra-Aries. Libra, symbolized by The Scales, represents the quest for balance and equality, partnership and peace. Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, is the energy of initiative and courage. This Full Moon shines a spotlight on where the Scales of Justice and relationships have become uneven. What is out of balance? What's not fair? Where are we giving or getting more than our share? What agreements need to be clarified or renegotiated?"...
