Animal Crossing vs. Starfox, if you could only get one right now which would it be?

Animal Crossing looks awesome, the only thing I've heard about it that makes me weary is some people have said you can only play it for no more than a half hour a day before you run out of things to do, and compared it to Seaman in that it's more a half hour per day virtual pet than a game you can sit with for a few hours. Starfox also looks great, it's just that so many people don't seem very excited about it that I wonder. I don't understand the "It sucks because it's an OOT clone" argument, because OOT's one of the best games ever made. Anyway, any thoughts are opinions on either game feel free to share them

this should pretty much answer your question..

That's about Mario Sunshine and Animal Crossing, and most of those people were talking shit about Mario Sunshine so how reliable coule they be?

Gonna pick up a GameCube and SFA tomorrow after work, so I should get a bunch of time with it this weekend. To me at least, the game looks like a blast. Animal Crossing may come later, if anybody I know ever buys it.

That's another thing, my friends are dumb so I probably wouldn't have anyone else to play AC with, so my only interaction with other people would be online item trading

I bought Animal Crossing a couple weeks ago and decided to hold of on Starfox for a while.

That is until I saw the Fox McCloud bobblehead that Target is giving away with the game. Sure it looks like it was painted by a 4 year old, but I just had to have it :) It's too cool.

But the exact same concept applies. "tried and true, been there done that" versus "something from way out in left field".

You like taking a chance? Enjoy new and different things? Get Animal Crossing. Prefer a little stability in your game purchases? Prefer to have an idea going in? Get Star Fox. Case closed.

No one can tell you if you'll like AC or not. If I can barely understand why I like AC so much, how could I possibly expect to determine if you'll like it?

That's a hard decision, I'm trading in Mario Sunshine towards Starfox this week. I can easily spend 2-3 hours a day on Animal Crossing running back and forth to Nook's selling my stuffs, running chores, and wreaking havoc. Animal Crossing is nice because it doesn't give you that 'throw your controller as hard as you can at the cat' type of feeling...it's laid back fun. If you want a huge challenge, tho, Starfox is probably the better choice. :)

It is possible to dislike a game, even a mario game. :(

Lithium: That logic would mean that Starfox is as good as Ocarina of Time, since the other argument was that Sunshine is as good as Mario 64, so do you want another Mario 64 or Animal Crossing. If I knew Starfox was as good as OOT I'd buy it without hesitation. My only hesitation is that there won't be enough to do per day in Animal Crossing, that it'll be a 15 minutes per day type game like Seaman was. I love the Harvest Moon games BTW and customizable stuff, if that helps.

You're going to play AC a lot more that 15 minutes a day. If you like Harvest Moon I would buy AC without hesitation.

AC is the better game, no doubt. I own both, by the way.

AC is just so different from everything else. You feel an obligation to play it everyday, but not because its like a chore, its just that you think about it so much that you HAVE to play it daily. Truly different from any other videogame experience.

I'd say Animal Crossing. It seems like it's trying to do more new things (with it than Star Fox), and pretty much succeeding as well.

like i said, do you even have to ask? :evil:

Animal Crossing it is!

Animal Crossing. This game will last me a LOOOOOOOONG time.
