Animal Crossing: New Leaf Has Taken Over IGN - IGN

We’re IGN, and we have a problem. We’re undeniably addicted to Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

in theory it’s the ideal experience to just pick up and play for 30 minutes. Theoretically you could just jump on in, dig up some fossils, water some flowers, and pop back out. Yet that’s not at all what I end up doing. I was shocked to look at my 3DS Activity Log recently and find that my average play time is actually more than four hours. But what really made my jaw hit the floor was when I glanced at my total playtime – 135 hours, as of today (which is exactly three weeks from when I first downloaded the game).

This is where I would call home. I started with a tent and a lantern and a few bucks in my pocket.

Weeks later, I sauntered ...through the door of my mansion. My tent was no more. My lantern lit nights were but a flickering memory. I had made it. I was finally home. And I was a king.

the new mayor duties are brilliant – instead of only your house feeling like it’s yours, the entire town does. The customization is on a whole new level. I’m starting to realize that this may be the best entry in the franchise yet.

New Leaf has actually surprised me with its multiplayer, or really just "social," options. I visit Brian, Andrew or Audrey's towns regularly to sightsee, wreck up the place, trade and take advantage of their crazy time traveling.

16 days brehs...

Never played animal crossing in my life. whats the hype?
to be brief, theres some psychology game designers need to consider when making games. animal crossing basically nails it from that standpoint


check out the article though, they explain a lot

But I ain't about that 3DS life.

If it drops on a system I'll probably cop it and a new wii u
