You mean always VGC?  Can you visit my town now and not your kid that takes all my hybrids and ruins my flowers by running over them?  I made paths for running for a reason...  However, not all people can grasp the run only on paths.

Blathers has had all his personality sucked out of him this game. :(

Yep, they went with detailed descriptions on the exhibits rather than him giving a description when you donate.  He did make the donating process a little longer but he now doesn't really have that much variation in his speech.  They should have given him specific one liners for each donation so he wouldn't babble on but at least tell a different joke for each donation.

I got a request for Stonehenge from a neighbor so I went to the town hall and selected to build it. My game then crashed when it was supposed to go outside for me to pick a spot. I didn't get the same request after reboot though so I lost that request since I didn't save before the crash. Some weird unexpected error which forced me to turn off the system (went black and on bottom screen told you to restart system).

Yes I have had the game crash on me a few times around the beginning. Just before I hit the 100 hour played mark.  After that I save as regular as I can.  It's even worse when you are in the Island as you cannot save normally.  However if you are spending hours there farming for beetles just do a beginners tour and that will save the game, That way if the game crashed suddenly at lest you wont have lost that 200k worth of beetle farming.. but a little of it.

Not much. But, newer entries encourage Wi-Fi play. So I'm still right!

Also, I just got done at Supermario's town. Pretty nice. He also has a Perfect Town! (Jacob's Ladder.)

SOMEONE HOP ON SO WE CAN PLAY TOGETHER NOW

someone already said elsewhere...you had to plug a memory card into another players gamecube...from memory you even got given a new memory card with the game when you bought it...it kinda sucked but it was the best option available (wasn't very useful for me as I only had one friend with the game at the time). You kids don't realise how lucky you got it with your fancy internet connections these days!!!

I actually did play the GameCube version, so I'm not totally missing out on the fantastic oppurtunity. (My brother and I really liked Animal Crossing on the GameCube. It was my first AC, like many other people.)

grrrrr Damn this Gracie Fashion Check ...... only have one piece of Modern fashion item.... and need more to pass it.
