So, I've been thinking about getting a Harvest Moon game, and I've been wondering what to get. So far it's a toss up between A Tale of Two Towns or A New Beginning, but I'm also considering More Friends of Mineral Town. What do you guys think?

Well, "A Tale of Two Towns" and "More Friends of Mineral Town" are my absolute favorite HM games (to the point where I actually got a second game of ToTT when I found one on sale just so I could try to get both a girl and a boy in each starter town and the romantic partners I wanted to).

A New Beginning is okay, but personally I prefer the other two titles.

You may wish to watch some Let's Plays of them all and see what appeals the most to you. Reading up on reviews might also be helpful.

^Thanks, Squrtlegirl! :D I'm thinking of looking at what ToTT is like first, and then decide.

I have heard good things about friends of mineral town.
I didn't really enjoy a new beginning it just didn't feel like a harvest moon game for the couple hours I played there was only 2 people to talk to and they just said the same things over. Actually if you haven't heard there is a new harvest moon inspired game on steam call stardew valley it looks like that game has a lot of customization.
Its pretty cool looking I haven't played it yet but I will sometime.

Assuming you have access to a PC, Stardew Valley! It's the best Harvest Moon style game ever by a long shot. If you don't, then I enjoyed Friends of Mineral Town back in the day.

I'm going to do some research about both ToTT and MFoMT before I decide. :)

I know you already know this, but FoMT is the only one on your list that I've played. I'm still playing it at work, and I really like it.

I just made it to Summer and I am so poor =) But I bought my first chicken.

I think I need to start befriending the Harvest Sprites.

I found MFoMT on Ebay, but I also found ToTT on the 3DS e-shop. Decisions...
