"2008 was a bit of a messy year for Nintendo fans. The big "core" title unveiled for the Wii at that year's E3 was Animal Crossing: City Folk, a title that, while absolutely fun, was more of the same when compared to its predecessor, the Nintendo DS' Wild World. Many called the game a lazy sequel, so it makes sense that the developers of the Animal Crossing series took that criticism to heart when making the latest installment of the series, primed for the Nintendo 3DS, Animal Crossing: New Leaf. The biggest structural change the series has even seen is being able to become mayor of your town and turn it from sleepy little town to hoppin' and boppin' place to be-- with your personal signature on it. What it all adds up to is the greatest Animal Crossing yet, and a great Nintendo 3DS killer app for the summer. "

Gi - With the release of Animal Crossing New Leaf for the Nintendo 3DS on June 9 we are once again back to hopelessly attempting to understand Animalese, catching bugs, and paying off a never ending pile of debt (all much like in real life). Animal Crossing New Leaf provides a fun and user friendly experience involving new concepts as well as improving upon the old. The game continues the fine life sim tradition of the series by allowing players to entertain hobbies, see to the daily upkeep of the town (all while on a beautifully programmed real world clock, which takes into account time of day as well as season), and adds a few new twists as well.

Phew, another busy week. The work of a mayor is never truly finished. Well, except for the 21st of June, the Summer Solstice. What a weird day! It was bright and sunny pretty much up to midnight... and Isabelle was slacking off in the plaza all day. And if Isabelle's slacking, that pretty much means I literally can't do anything as mayor. She's got to... sign paperwork... and stuff! You know, secretarial stuff like that.

One of the biggest Nintendo titles is back in 3D. Animal Crossing New Leaf makes its appearance on the Nintendo 3DS with a bit of a change here and a bit of the same ole there, is this yet another typical Animal Crossing or is there more to it this time?

We asked Animal Crossing's developers how to get the most out of the game at the very beginning.

The Last of Us sits pretty at the top of the UK charts for a second week, and Animal Crossing is runner-up again.

Play Vault: "You spend your days fishing, digging for fossils, making small talk with the animal townsfolk or just generally wandering around taking it all in. There is no eating to survive found here and you can forget about having to ensure your avatar has visited the toilet five billion times a day because otherwise they will poop themselves, because that type of gameplay is non existent here. Animal Crossing is an experience of relaxation, having fun and setting your own goals and playing at your own pace."
