Note to $ony, M$, and now N0kia:
Even the most non-delusional of people who are no longer "Image Seekers" like to have fun. Its that simple, fun games should not be disrespected because the opposition have a complex about such games.

Read the last paragraph by HH on Animal Crossing.

That's funny. The son didn't like the game his dad did. He was accually making fun of all the other games.

This was one of the best articles I have ever read.  I nearly laughed my A** off.  Who would have thought that one of the most notorious Mobsters ever would choose Animal Crossing over GTA?!  LMAO!  At least he has good taste

By the way, the best part of the article was his comments on the ultra-crappy "The Getaway."  Im glad to see someone tell it like it is

Yeah but his kid, the actual gamer that puts money in Nintendos pocket thought Animal Crossing sucked... Its basically Nintendos biggest problem, the perception that Nintendo is for kids... a damn shame too I thought Animal Crossing owned.

That kicked ass!
Henry likes Animal Crossing!
Yay!

It's really good how someone with no real game experiences knows what a good game is.
Has anyone emailed this to Sony yet?

And yeah, put him in the Nintendo ads!
"Animal Crossing 2.....as played by Henry Hill - mobster, and inspiration for the film Good Fellas"

I saw that yesterday, and it was a great read.  Completely backfired on EGM, and I wonder what they'd have done if he didn't like Animal Crossing.  Still, the fact that he wanted it bad enough to take their copy is the best part.

Yeah, I read this article in EGM before.  Hilarious, I loved it.  I just got the bong joke, though.

A little note to Nintendo:

Go to Henry Hill.  Tape him playing GTA, then tape him playing Animal Crossing.  Splice those two tapes together and spoof!  You will get one of the best ads ever made in human existance.  

Good idea, Grey Ninja.
