Ahhh... puppies are so cute. I was so thrilled to get this game and make a digital avatar of my real life dog. And she was cute... in a kinda not furry pixelated way. This is a breakthrough in voice recognition and AI interaction but sooner or later you'll run out of things that you want to do and find that you're just doing it out of habit. Oh sure I played it for months and months... that's why I'm getting around to writing this review now, but alas I haven't touched my puppy in about a month. Appropriate fondling aside: if you like cute puppies and are still on the fence about this one after... oh the six month period it's been out, then you should probably stay clear because though it'll hold your interests for a short time it'll only leave you wishing you had a real flea biting puppy. On the other hand if you're into cute puppies and you happen to be a 10 year old Japanese girl than you've already got this and you're only reading this review because you've run out of puppies to train.
