I love the new basket but so far all my petz HATE it they look at it and growl or hiss! For the toys I DO like see "Pros". The scarecrow toy is cute but if they made the sound for it any more annoying, I think I would have to shoot myself. I'm still trying to discover the point to the "Ghost Box" from the Haunted Mansion scene. The humming bird feeder was a cute thing but it is really rather pointless. New Toys Ok, so far most of the "new" toys are not very impressing. This is all the more annoying because of the no-shelf business.īetter Graphics? Yes, the graphics are better, but why did they have to change the rugs and wallpaper in the Kitchen and Family Room? I mean, whoever decided on that definitely should not be picking out his or her own clothing in the morning. Playscene Toys-It's annoying as HECK that they KEEP giving you the same toys over and over again in the new playscenes and in the other P4 adapted scenes (ie the Unicorn in the Castle). I think it is a rather insensitive thing for them to have done. The Monkey Buddha-I am not a Buddhist but I think the fact that they made "Buddha" a monkey is very offensive if you a Christian, imagine if they had portrayed Jesus as a Baboon-offensive? If you think so then you see my point. For one thing, you can rename, copy, spay/neuter, restore original colors, and all that jazz right from the profile screen, which is pretty handy-you don't have to put the pet away to rename it or change the owner!!ĬONS New Playscenes-The new playscenes are pretty cool, but you can't hang anything on the walls and there are no shelves, so unless you are there to play the minigame they are pretty useless. I know I have something about this in the con section, but there is really more good about it then bad. This is honestly the BEST feature of P5, especially if you are a hard-core breeder like myself, since it saves SO MUCH TIME! However, I do have problems with the way it's done as you can read below in the CONS section. Litters: Ok, I know that most people are really interested in P5 because Petz can FINALLY have more than one pup/kitten at a time. There is a table but you can't put the sponge or the towel on it, so they have to sit on the floor, which is very annoying. HOWEVER I do have one problem with it, and I mention this in the cons below. You can still get them back to their original colors by chosing "restore original colors" which is now in the Petz Profile. However, I think the bath is soo cute-if you paint your petz (after your earn the paint can, of course =P) you can give them a bath and it will wash them all clean. I'm disappointed that they didn't add more new clothes basically the only new clothes are non-hexed versions of the Scene Hosts' outfits-like the Pharoah, the Indiana Jones, the Pirates, etc. No Clothes Closet-Even though it screws me up for breeding, I really do think that the Salon is a lot better than the clothes closet-though I think the changing room in Babyz is a lot nicer, graphics-wise (yes I realize it was a different company). This makes me mad because I liked to decorate my playscenes with them!! The only thing I don't like is this means certain toyz that you could take with you (that you would find) in P3 or 4 you can't take with you anymore, like shellz. No toy closet-now you carry all the toyz that you have earned/found around with you wherever you go! That means you can have as many toys and as much of them all the time. You can now get runaways back-supposedly if your pet runs away you can go to the adoption center and look at the board and see if there is a posting advertising him or her, and then you can get them back. I also like some of the new "scene" toys- like the longhorn skull that you can get in the Wild West scene or the Arrow that you can also get in that scene-my petz LOVE playing with the arrow-wierd, huh?
The dogz love the bacon and the catz love the cookies especially the night lights are very cute.they're sort of pointless but I really do like them lol. Here are the new toys that I DO like: the Bacon & Spider Cookie treats: my petz LOVE them. I'm not sure why you'd want to make these postcards (lol) but they're really cute. PROS PICTURES: The way you take pictures is kind of nice: now you can take pictures like you did in P4 (single pet, pet together, w/ or w/o background) or you can make a postcard with your petz' picture (either the one you just took or any other one you have taken in the past). : Pros | Cons | Review Summary | P5 Tips | Toy List.
After my pros & cons I will give you a brief summary of how I feel about the game in general and give my recommendation. HOWEVER, this does not mean that you shouldn't buy the game. I've set this review up with pros and cons.as you can see at a casual glance there are a lot more cons than pros. ~~devoted to danes :: is :: swamptastic~~
