No matter how old you are, you probably won’t ever forget the first time you visited a Disney theme park, primarily Disneyland.  Nothing beats stepping into the Magic Kingdom for the first time and taking in all the sights and sounds, whether you’re riding the Matterhorn or giving Mickey Mouse a hug.  (C’mon, you know you did it.)  Not everyone can afford a trip right away, though, so it’s nice to see we have a digital alternative that’s just as magical, even if you don't have a pair of mouse ears at the end of the day.

Harvest Moon, the farming simulator that harvested its way into our hearts since the Super Nintendo days is due for a Fall 2011 sequel for the Nintendo DS and 3DS. I held the game in my hands on the E3 2011 show floor, earlier today and came away with some impressions.

The Tale of Two Towns features, like the name suggests, two distinct villages with their own cultures, customs, and rivalries. At the start of the game you select your gender and town affiliation. As this is a farming simulation, the town rivalry boils down to food preference. The European styled Bluebell favors animals, whereas the Eastern flavored Konahana is filled with fields of crops.

Games that are based on movie or television IPs always get a bad rap. They are known for horrible development, a sophomoric premise, and overall just banal existence. And sure, Man vs Wild may fit into that schema--it's Discovery Communications way to tap into a video game market that they have not reached before.
