Naturally. What great game doesn't have that option these days?

I've been giving her two bits of blue grass every day for two weeks (except Mondays, she's in the mountains with her parents on Mondays). She liked me a bit, but now she likes me a lot - she's at the yellow heart stage! Two more hearts to go until I can pop the question (with the aid of a blue feather) and start a family. I'm really looking forward to it. I hope she can cook - I'm awful. Although I did make a rather nice curry the other day, which I threw by mistake into the egg bin. Gah.

The chickens are becoming a ("PRETTY FLOWER" - Ed)ing pain. Until a few days ago, I used to have 5 outside, and six inside. But, due to rain, some have been getting sick, and balls to them if they think I'm dragging them inside when a few drops of rain fall. So I put them all inside, and I intend to keep them there. But - oh man - the feeding process is so annoyng it's untrue. Half the time the chicken feed MISSES the box completely, and dissapears onto the floor. And then I have to go and get some more. I spend about 1000G a week on feed.

My cow and sheep (Moe and Mr. Shit, respectively) are doing good, though Moe isn't old enough for milking yet, which makes my 2000G purchase of a milker stupid. I've just had the barn enlarged, too, so I have room for about 30+ livestock. I can't afford that many yet.

My dog has just spent a week at a neighbour's ranch having sex with their dog, Hana. They want puppies. I don't know whether this will impact me or not. Only time will tell, I suppose.

Crops are a bit tiresome. I've expanded my crop field over the past few weeks - I now have about 10+ 9x9 squares in which to plant. My second harvest of potatoes and turnips are doing well, and so are my 3 squares of Cucumbers. The mayor has asked me to bring 3 corn to his house, for the big cooking festival in a week or so. I said yes. I don't know why - I don't grow corn, and no-one in town sells them. I'll bring him turnips instead.

As I said at the start of the last paragraph, crops are tiresome. So, I've been buttering up the local Helper Sprites. They're multicoloured little guys who help around your farm if you can't be bothered. I've been buying Flour for all 7 of them everyday, and they seem to like it. Once they like me enough, I think I'll ask them to sort out those bastard chickens.

And now, to bed. But before, I'll just watch an episode of The Fairy And Me.

Conclusion: Harvest Moon: Back to Nature on the PSone is superb, and I'm highly anticipating the GameCube sequel. Hurrah!

oh man, now i have such an urge to play the snes version
but i have so many other snes games to play
decisions, decisions

I wonder if you'll be able to fly a helicopter in the GameCube version?

You play too much computer games. I couldn't decide wheter you ware talking about a game or some nefarious coddling with your significant other.

I was talking about my (soon to be) significant lover. In the game! Teehee.

Can you rape her with a sausage?

I particularly enjoyed the 'rape her with a sausage mode' that was included in the videogame version of The Weakest Link. Without all of that bratwurst bashing it would have been a very weak game

Game? Option?

I'm just popping down to the butchers.

I could never find the rape and pillage options on Tamagotchi 64.

breaking the flow of rape-related banter...
can anyone point me to a working rom of snes harvest moon? (which i did used to own so i'm not a bad person honest)

http://www.cherryroms.com/snes/1199.php

100% rape free.

We are unable to offer this file due to Copyright restrictions (this will not change in the future!), If you click here (link i can't get to work) you can search the net for this snes rom.
:(

For finding ROM's the old fashioned way I find going to google then using a string like "harvest moon snes rom download" then go to about page 10 or 20, you know once you've passed through all those really ("PRETTY FLOWER" - Ed)ing shit sites that do nothing but rape your PC with popups and "Do you want to install: NOT A VIRUS.EXE" java script clients.

Then just look for ones that don't have Geocities or whatever urls as free sites tend to delete sites after a period of time though they are still cached in Google.

Or you could just do what I did and have a flatmate who bit torrented a zip containing 2gig worth of ROMs so everything is just sitting there.

Google is usually a bit shite for finding ROMs (especially obscure ones) - just go to RomShare, sign up, and download away - it has pretty much every game for every cart, floppy or tape-based system ever produced (except GBA and Neo-Geo, since Nintendo and SNK weren't particularly happy about them giving away games for systems that still had stuff coming out for them). I love China.

The PS1 version is only about two quid these days. Just buy that.

maybe if it came with a free PS1 to play it on... :)

anyway, got it now. cheers to pentarou for the romshare link.

Psshh. You lie. It goes for about £15-20 on eBay. GameStation in Torquay had a copy for £10, though - and it wasn't covered in shit stains!

Well, WHSmith have it for £7.99. Suck on that, Rolf!

Get it, Bargain Hunter! That'll be a cracking lot.

Shut it Tim Woolface, or whatever the hell your name is. You're never gonna cut it with me, regardless of how brown or bespectacled you are.

I'm just as God made me, sir.

Too bad God made you an ugly ("FLUFFY KITTEN" - Ed), then.

Why is he holding two Ariel washing machine liquid containers?

His might semen leaves stains only two ariel tablets can clean, one simply won't do the job.
