RB2 looks great - I just can't bring myself to spend the extra $ right now so I'll probably end up with 1 ;)Quote:

I didn't like the Gamecube one at all, but the DS version with its online interactivity had me hooked for months. I'm sorry to say I sold the game, because it looks like you can even import your guy over from that one in City Folk :(Quote:

How extensive is the online mode? Is it just checking out other people's towns or can you work together or anything like that?
The IGN review said it was more of a rehash than a true sequel. That looks to be the case. Hope the animal crossing folks don't think I'm a weirdo cause I'll be playing at 2-3 am most of the time most likely :) - I'll have to beg Tom Nook for crack and go around hassling other town folk. Probably not the best game to play at 3am, doesn't seem like there would be much to do in the game in the middle of the night but I dunno.
Bought it today for the wife and kid. She is currently transferring all her stuff from the DS. I don't get the appeal, but they seem to like it.
After reading the reviews I'll probably skip this. I never could get into the DS game and this sounds like the exact some thing with a few new features.
The online interaction really boils down to hanging out in each others towns and using the remote flora and fauna to expand your own needs. You can also talk to the residents in your friend's town and they will remember you and ask things of you, sometimes they will ask what you think of your friend, and if they like you enough they might move out of your friend's town and into yours, where they will retain any items or information they got from that friend. If you have multiple friends in the game, this can create a sort of viral resident effect where down the line you can end up with a resident that was originally from a friend of a friend of a friend. Also if this is anything like the DS one, there will ocassionally be a synchronized event between two friends - one such example is that of a kitten that had become lost and you need to find her mom in a friend's town.Quote:

Your town's residents also appear to have a lot more dialogue this time around, and they're still as amusingly disturbed as always. My town has oranges. Why do I always get oranges? Someone else get this game and give me another fruit :D
The resident or the food?Quote:

Anyone else playing it?
