Just kidding, but seriously, it's great. I recommend it for guys and girls of all ages. This game is a must have for all 360 fans. For some odd reason, taking care of pinatas and plants is the funnest thing I've ever done. I was wrong. I didn't think anything could be as addicting as Animal Crossing. This game will never let you go. It's easy, it's fun, you get tons of gps, and it may surprise you by putting you in touch with your gentle, caring side.
As it stands both games are about the same price so there's no reason to buy this title unless it's much cheaper than the Trouble in Paradise edition. Trouble in Paradise streamlined the interface issues and added content, but it basically the same game. Okay this is a good game, it's fun, I could sit and play for hours without getting bored. The problem is, it's not worth it to buy this game now that Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise is available. I found this out after I ordered both Viva Pinata and Trouble in Paradise and had to go through the hassle of changing my order.
If you like RPG games or "build games" then this would be a good addition to your collection. Easy to play and lots of animals to catch/raise and lots of fruit/vegetables and flowers to grow. I don't know why but I purchased this game out of impulse. Im 26 years old and believe me for a kids game its pretty darn good. It will keep you on your seat for at least a few hours.
Probably not supposed to, but it did. Hah. Might be something I'd try to get back into later. It's loads of fun but it fell flat quickly for me. I love video games, from Sims/Gears of War/FallOut and if I love it, I'll play it for a few weeks, beat it a couple times and trade it in. This game is so addictive and hard to put down. The thing about this game is its quite repetitive. Also, the warning in the book "If you think you're having a seizure, stop playing immediately" made me laugh.
this game answers the question,"what would happen if cheech and chong made a video game with better homes and gardens.".well,you'd get a psycadelic brazilian influenced game all about pinatas in a garden.now i know what you're thinking."how much fun could a game based on a garden be."i am here to say this game rivals nicotine addiction.if you put it down its because you are asleep.i know it also looks like a goofy tele tubbie kids game.but no its actualy great fun.remember,never judge a video game by its cover.so here are some things that have gone on so far.attacks by evil pinatas are frequent.but you get to beat them to death with a shovel if they try to kill your good pinatas.what i am saying is its not all kid stuff.at one point a bum keeps coming around and you are encouraged to beat him with the trusty shovel until he goes away.i even had to firey colored squirrels named ember and amber.amber was murdered by local bad boy"dastorado"[or something like that}.ember cried non stop for days.he had a heart broken.he just laid outside the fence and balled his eyes out.after this breakdown,he lost the will to live and disappeared.it was the most horribly depressing thing ive seen on a kid show since "snoopy come home".i couldve cried.maybe its me but my pinatas seem to have a pretty short life span.there are bigger pinatas who cause trouble.like my chicken and rabbit got eaten by a fox.well not so much eaten as ripped apart.so dont get too attatched to your pinatas or you may be in for some sorrow.now,say 2 pinatas have all the right charisma.like for instance 2 worms share a home and both ate candy.they will get a heart above them.this means they are ready for love.they will do a little dance for eachother.then they must go through a maze to get to the other one.[lucky pinatas only have to do a stinkin maze.].then they wrestle and dance on a bed while rocking out to dance music.then all goes dark and they do the romance dance.yes its really called that.then the stork comes around.this game is no super great milestone in the history of video games.it is however highly addictive.i guess someones gonna have to grow some methadone in the pinata garden so everyone can get back to thier regular lives.
