I got Viva Piniata yesterday and played it for a few hours. Its actually a lot of fun and pretty addictive. Graphics are great, and while it is a little kiddie, the game has a lot of depth (or seems to at this point). It's sort of a cross between the sims and animal crossing. I find it a little wierd how the game has no real point except to build a collection of piniats and make a cool personalized space, but that's just the genre of the game. What is also pretty cool is that everyone's "garden" will turn out differently. Another plus is that the game is girlfriend safe (not as abrasive in the sound dept, cuter looking, etc)

 

C a n t resist. Must Flame.... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh

 

 

 

girlfriend safe games?

 

I don't know if I should grab this, or wait for Animal Crossing on Wii next year.

 

is this game a fucking joke?

 

i have a loft appt, so anything i can play without her complaining that its too loud is gf safe

 

Headphones and a FPS FTW!

 

^^ hopefully this will be soved by christmas




but anyways, i think its a good game, so whatever, flame away

 

:gheywave:

 

I would tend to agree, bought it for the girlfriend and she loves it. What more can you say?? The Pinata's get it on, and that's one of the aspects of the game

 

Picked it up today. Probably going to crank it up New Year's holiday.

 

Pretty good so far. How do you get a bigger garden? Just automatic when you level up?

And how do you get them to stop fighting each other? I'm tired of paying doctors bills, I just smash them now.

 

my bro in law wanted me to keep up his garden while he's on vacation

popped it in, saw what it was...
yea fucking right

 

Yearh, you get a bigger garden as you level up...I don't know of a way for them to stop fighting each other, I think sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and call the doctor. But if two of them are fighting constantly, then there is probably an inherent dislike between those two breeds. Which ones are fighting? If you want to get rid of one, I would just call the doctor and then sell it when it is all healed.

If you want a good way to make money btw, you can plant a chili seed (purchase at the store if you have unlocked it), sprinkle the red firtilizer on it three times, and then sell it when it fals off the stem (like 5 minutes). it will be worth $400, after only about $50 of investment. What you can also do is plant three next to each other in a triangle, so this way one dose of fertilizer will work on all thee plants.

 

The bumblebees were causing all sorts or crap with most of my pinata.

I was completely oblivious to the fact that I could sell off pinata until yesterday, so I'll just have to sell those guys off, should solve a lot of problems.

Thanks for the tip on the chili peppers! I'll have to try that out.

 

i think the bumblebees are useless. Some piniatas take up residence without much direct action on your part, and I think these are one of them...You should def sell them off. Or you can continue to beat them if you want.
