Examiner: 2 / 5 by Patrick Hickey Jr.

At the very least, in spite of a few flaws that drag out the gameplay experience, "Farming Simulator 15" is an in-depth and realistic farming experience that is educational and informative. It's just not a lot of fun.

Full Review

CGMagazine: 6.5 / 10 by Wayne Santos

Farming Simulator 15 can provide a tranquil, educational and interesting virtual farming experience. However, at $50 for a hamstrung version compared to its PC sibling, the bugs and narrow gameplay make it difficult to easily recommend.

TheSixthAxis: 4 / 10 by Jim Hargreaves

Needless to say, those with a short attention span best stay clear, unless they have another monitor or tablet handy. That said, there is likely to be a pocket of (perhaps younger) gamers who will extract genuine pleasure from the game's dreary pacing and lack of pizazz.
