Title: Viva Pinata; and Viva Pinata Trouble in Paradise
Post by: Olimar_91 on August 24, 2009, 06:05:08 PM
So what do you guys think of Viva Pinata? Personally I think it's a greatly mis-marketed series that makes it seem like a kids game, but is more so directed at older players.

Anyway, I just ordered myself Trouble in Paradise for my new 360 and was wondering what everyone else thinks of the candy filled papery goodness.

Just bare in mind that every negative comment makes a Bunnycomb take a stick to the face.

I really am not a fan of the series. I saw the cartoon - it's a purely kid fest. I played the DS game - disappointing at best. Really, it just seems like it was M$'s attempt at making a Pok?mon, and to me, it failed.

The cartoon was poop. The DS game was poop.

Www4 loves the Xbox games though.

I haven't heard much on the XBox game. It still doesn't look particularly exciting.

The Xbox game is Viva Pinata.

You can't judge a series by its licensed cartoon, otherwise you'd probably hate Kirby too!

I got the first Viva Pinata game for Xbox 360 around when it first came out. I liked it, but didn't know how to advance the story so much.

As for the cartoon, I must admit that although I don't/didn't watch it much, I do still enjoy it. I'm a kid at heart. A 9 year-old kid. Who likes cartoons that is.

Something about it has just never appealed to me.
