TGS: Harvest Moon heads to PS2

[04.01.01] » Victor Interactive shows of the next generation of armchair farming.

   While the bulk of the attention at the Tokyo Game Show may be going to Final Fantasy X and Xbox, Victor Interactive has quietly unveiled the latest installment of their farming sim series, Harvest Moon for PlayStation 2.

   While the game is at an early stage, it was playable at Sony's booth and the graphics displayed the same cartoonish charm for which the series is known. Beyond the standard graphical upgrade on the PS2, the new Harvest Moon will also be employing a subtle use of cell shading for characters.

   No information was available on possible gameplay improvements for this latest version, but expect to hear more on Harvest Moon PS2 soon.
