Hero-of-Time Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Again, Gameplay are legends. Despatched yesterday, got it today. Looking forward to having a play of it after dinner. Can't believe a game I (and many others) laughed at, is now all the rage. Did you recieve that evolved Pinata I sent you? Make everyone on your friends list buy the game, because in a recent interview one of the lead designers at rare, says that if their aren't enough people they won't release any new content. On a slight different note what are the minigames of the lovedances like The minigames are just a maze where you have to reach the other Pinata before the time runs out. As the levels increase of the Pinata so does the difficulty of the maze. After that you get to see them doing some form of dance ritual. Oh yeah Meik I have also sent you Huey back but not as you know him.....
That Guy Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 This game is great. Been playing it for an hour and a half or so now, got a few whirlms, them snake things, bird things, and fly things, as well as HoT's pinata (cheers for that ). Gardens a bit basic right now, but got 80 points already. Really looking forward to spending the weekend with this. Have to say, the last few weeks have been quality gaming wise. Maybe even some of the most fun weeks I've had with games. And to think the Wii just a week away.
Meik Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Oh yeah Meik I have also sent you Huey back but not as you know him.....Nice cheers, one of my other ducks randomly transformed into a goose earlier, I figured he eat a specific type of fruit but I have no idea what it was. Trying to avoid forums/gamefaqs, don't wanna find out about any other Pinata. Edit: now to mate these things and watch their romance dance like some sort of creepy voyeur.
Guest Jordan Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 This game sounds both fantastic and incredibly fucked up.
That Guy Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 This game sounds both fantastic and incredibly fucked up. You have no idea how true that it is.
ZeldaFreak Posted November 30, 2006 Author Posted November 30, 2006 Have you got any other evolved pinatas
Chuck Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 This game sounds mint, but like it there are other 360 games that have been out and are coming out soon that I really want but....... Wii comes first - 7 days 1 hr 59 minutes
KKOB Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 getting it tomorrow! traded in Kameo, Kong and Tetris DS-got 38 for them though to help pay towards Wii and i'll be getting 15% off VP tomorrow from HMV Picadilly aka 2 mins away at the bottom of my road.
That Guy Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Lol so from Gears of War to Viva Pinata in 2 weeks. Quite a change of scenery By the way, are we all still playing Gears tomorrow night?
KKOB Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 If your gardening is successful, and you're leveling up every 20 minutes or so, there will come a point several hours in where you're told that there are too many piñatas in your square of paradise. That's when it hits you. You can sell piñatas for cash. But how can you part with them? You've spent so long tending to their every need, naming them, accessorizing them with goofy glasses and stupid-looking fake teeth, all while providing them with the perfect habitat. You can box some of them up and send them to friends on your buddy list to earn an achievement, but it's not really a practical solution. So you sell a Whirlm, just to see what happens. When poor little Willy the Whirlm goes for 100 coins, you can't help but feel a tinge of guilt. Have you somehow failed the Whilrm population?Of course not. Willy's brothers and sisters will happily shag each other senseless to make more Whirlms with minimal encouragement -- so essentially, they're a source of endless income. All you really have to do is ensure that more than two of them are wiggling around at all times, and you have a sure thing on your hands. This is where that "purity of benevolence" thing starts to slip away. Success requires calculated evil. Before you know it, you have a walled-in Whirlm concentration camp, and you're no longer naming the little guys -- you're just letting the game number them automatically. As you force Whirlms 27 and 28 to breed for the last time, before sacrificing them to the coffers, it dawns on you. Wait...Sparrowmints like to eat Whirlms, don't they? So much so that it makes them horny. If you breed the little wrigglers as food, you can feed them to the birds, get them to mate and sell their offspring for three times the profit! Wait...is that evil? Who cares?! just thought this was an awesome review snippit from 1up.com. best review of a game in ages.
Hero-of-Time Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 I managed to get the biggest upgrade to my garden last night but its looking a bit bare, guess some buying and sorting is in order. I am also skint when it comes to cash I may have to breed and sell some of my rare Pinatas. I kind of lost control of things yesterday as Pinatas were joining my garden left and right and then fights were breaking out all over the place. I was running around trying to heal them all, it was like some epic battle field in a WW2 movie. It made Call of Duty 2 beach landing level look tame.
The3rdChildren Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 I grabbed a copy of this in Tesco. I was intending to grab the standard edition, but when the dude brought out a limited edition that was actually cheaper than the standard edition (£37.94) I decided to throw caution into the wind and buy it.
ZeldaFreak Posted December 1, 2006 Author Posted December 1, 2006 What is actually in the limited edition, of course I ordered the standard version of the game -which I won't get to play until 17th of december if i'm lucky, but I would like to know what you get in it.
KKOB Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 loving this game-though i think i'm going to have to start a new garden on account of my -put in everything everywhere and try and cater to all the pinata- thing. this time i wanna focus on one at a time-and those damn fucking preztail keep coming in and eating my rabbits grrrr
Hero-of-Time Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 Takeo killed the monkey I sent him. He claimed it died of natural causes but I believe he beat it with the shovel. Brings a whole new meaning to spanking the monkey.
That Guy Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 I love this game. Reminds me of The Sims only not boring.
KKOB Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 Takeo killed the monkey I sent him. He claimed it died of natural causes but I believe he beat it with the shovel. Brings a whole new meaning to spanking the monkey. LMAO!!!!! it died of boredom . . . or was it that evil bat? how DO you get a jack'o'lantern? and has any one got any general tips or specific information on stuff like mutant pinata etc?
Hero-of-Time Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 To get a Jack O Latern you have to buy a pumpkin and then get Bart to exchange it ( use a gold exchange ) In fact thats what im on doing now as im trying to get the Sour Sherbat to eat it so it will join me in my quest for total domination.
Nintendork Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 How to make babies.. at the disco of course. You can force them to do this but it takes a few days and they don't like it nearly as much.
Hero-of-Time Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 Heres a good tip for you Takeo. To get lots of cash quick let the blue bugs called Taffly get set on fire ( place a light in your garden and direct them to it ) then quickly put them out with a watering can. This turns them into Reddhotts which sell for 2100 a piece.
ZeldaFreak Posted December 2, 2006 Author Posted December 2, 2006 Do you know how to get a 'four head' pinata though Hero.

Hero-of-Time Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 Do you know how to get a 'four head' pinata though Hero. Not yet I havent seen a few of the Pinatas yet. I have seen an elephant and a lion, also hatched a specail Drgon Pinata which I got from the mine.
That Guy Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 It can get a bit dull after nothing's happened for a few hours. Think I need to have a bit more of a plan as to what I'm actually doing in the garden. Right now it's sort of 'I could get this if I do this' and so one corner becomes an area to get tafflys and redhotts to make a bit of money (works aswell ). Played for a few hours though, although might have to go back to Gears for a while. Can't 'overplay' it.
