This week I have been mostly...

been driven insane by Animal Crossing.

After taking a long while away from the game, I got back into it. A charming and wonderful game where you idle time away doing nothing much but fish, garden and try catching insects. It's been infuriating as I've tried to obtain the Golden Axe (which I was close to doing before I left it) and this requires you to be meticulous for 15 days making sure trees you've planted don't die, no trash is left in town and weeds don't overrun.

Strangely enjoying this, my mind turns to the DS version of Animal Crossing. This will be an online game where we can share towns with others (quite how this works I am not sure) but it sure is intriguing having 2 others in town with you. We'll have those who love gardening, others who enjoy fishing and others who want to just run about trying to hit on NPCs but all within the same town interacting and making friends. I cannot wait, it's what AC was requiring all along and another feather in NCL's DS hat.
