Widescreen Grade: B
Multi-monitor Grade: B

Read Full Detailed Report - Farmer Simulator 2008

Farmer Simulator 2008 lets you drive tractors, combine harvesters and a host of attachable devices to take good care of your fields, from plowing and fertilizing the soil to reaping and delivering the crops. The game has a dozen of time-based missions focusing on each of these tasks, and culminates in the open-ended Career mode where you can go anywhere and use any tool while keeping an eye on your financial balance. Also known as Farming Simulator 2008, original german title : Landwirdschafts-Simulator 2008. (A 2009 version is appearently in the works. Will it be the MMO Team-based Co-op Crop Wars we all dream of, I'm not sure.) A demo and even user-made mods can be found at the official site - http://giants-software.com/archive/FarmingSimulator2008/index.php.

Grade is B+. HUD stretch is a blemish.

Cynagen, it's no bull... crap at all, and you just pilot big rigs in the fields here ! :)
Germany (and Japan - "DMZ syndrom" maybe ?) produce a lot of civilian "simmers", some extremely bad, some pretty fun. Publisher Astragon has been releasing a lot of such titles recently, and Farmer Simulator is one of the best, thanks to the unique sandbox career mode.
Harvesting corn in cockpit view, relying on your combine's autothrottle while looking around at the peaceful countryside is really soothing for the mind, and is a great (though somewhat twisted) way to enjoy TripleHead gaming ;) :lol:

Ay sir. There are tons of videos I'd love to make, but I lack the time and skills :( Will give it a try though.
