After having both versions, this one is much better
The sound and the graphics are very good, even better than some other GBA games. You can easily tell what each plant is, if you know what they look like of course. Your animals grow to love you, and they give better products when you love them too.
Since your a girl, you get a bunch of bachelors to choose from, and they all are different in their own ways. There are a few secret heart bachelors you can marry, but a difficult to woo them.
Since you can live over a whoppy 255 years, you can play this baby all the time. The save system is seriously the fastest savers on the market :D.
Pros:
-Good Graphics
-Many bachelors
-A lot of replay value
Cons:
-can be boring
Final Conclusion
If you're a Harvest moon fan. and are sick of being a girl, buy it. If you have the guy version, but don't like typos, nd don't mind being a girl, I'd buy.
