Just saw Trouble in Paradise for £5 in Sainsburys (UK) which is an absolute bargain, I've never seen an Xbox 360 game so cheap. But I've never played a Viva Pinata game before, and I'm not sure I want to.

Is it anything like Banjo-Kazooie or Kameo? I might try out a demo if there is one on XBL.

I think it's more like a Harvest Moon or Animal Crossing type game, from what I've played.

Aha. I had Animal Crossing: Wild World on DS and although it was fun at first, I grew extremely bored with it. Not really a fan of these life sims, and Viva Pinata never appealed to me before so I think I'll give it a miss.

Oh, you can't give it a miss. It's one of the best games ever. It's charming, addictive and fun. Graphically, it looks better than most Xbox 360 games. Pick it up.

Ah okay, I might look into it more later. But will it still be okay if I haven't played the first game?

Yeah, it doesn't matter.

It's definitly not story based. I'm not really a fan of these games either, but it was worth the $17 for the experience.

Tbh I would've paid a full 60 dollars.

I bought the first game for $40 and I don't think it's worth that much. But £5, that's probably worth it.

I'm not sure how much £5 is worth in $, but it sounds like it would be a good deal.

TO each there own opinion. It's not a bad game. I just can't really keep interest. I did however have addict dreams for the first week in which I planned my garden.

Viva Pinata truly is one of the best games on Xbox. If you bought it, you surely won't be dissapointed.

Skyless_Duck · #14 10th March 2010, 10:39 PM

That cheap?!

I thoroughly enjoyed the first Viva Pinata, but hesitated on purchasing the second one since it didn't seem all too different (Especially considering that I played the first one just a few weeks prior to the release of the sequel).

Thanks for the heads up!

Viva Pinata is one of the best games on 360, and Rare's best new series game for awhile now. For that low, there's no reason not to get it, plus the fact it's awesome.
