User Rating: 7 | Viva Pinata: Party Animals X360
I had a lot of fun with Viva Pinata last year,though this new installment is a different game its still a blast to play,especially if you have some friends with the same interest.

There are both home and Live modes.So if you have no friends you can makes some over Live.In between mini games there are races,in some cases these races remind me of a poor man's Mario Kart.But there decent fun even if its a little to chaotic.The mini games are quite fun indeed.Some are ripped straight from the Mario Party games,but its no easy task to come up with new ideas for party games these days.Some of the mini games will require you to hit more targets with balls than the other three players.And those ones are usually the least fun,and kinda basic.Then there are mini games were you are trying to get the most candy,but there is always an obstacle in your way.These are usually the games that are more fun to play than the others.None of the mini games are just STAND out awesome,but there all decent fun.And the game is a lot more fun to play than Mario Party in some cases,but of course Party Animals has no sort of bumper balls.Ha ha.

Party Animals has some fine visuals.Great lighting,characters and the game is full of soo much color kids will truly have a feast for there eyes.There is some annoying screen tearing every now and then,but for the most part the game runs smoothly.Races are the only downfall as some of the stuff in them looks half made and cheap.But once again the colorful designs and characters will truly make up for any bad graphical blemish.

VIVA PINATA..SOO MUCH FUN!...You are going to hear that a lot in this game.The sounds and voice commentary is very overused and is easily one of the games biggest issues.You will get tired of hearing the same sounds over and over again.It actually started giving me and my brother headaches.

Good replay value in this games.The achievements are fun to unlock none of them are impossible and they wont take up to much time to get.There is a Live mode,there are quite a few games for your mastering pleasure,and the game usually comes to 39.99$ at most stores.And I think its worth it for Viva Pinata fans craving for more Pinata fun.Everyone else should at least rent the game as its the best party game on the 360 yet.
