Viva Pinata for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

I cleverly picked this up as present for my girlfriend, while intending to check it out for myself.

Once you get past a lengthy, but good tutorial, the game starts to come together rather quickly. Breed Pinata animals, plant fruits and vegetables, build ponds, and develop a garden full how ever you like. The more you try the different options out, the more Pinata move in.

This game is great, and it provides many hours of playtime. You could earn every achievement (I am not even close) and still want to play more.

There are 2 downsides despite my perfect scoring. First, this is a little too much for a youngster, but they combat that by allowing parents to power up another controller and help out. Hopefully the parent won't have too much fun themselves and take over. Second, I periodically have Pinata become invisible. They are there, but I cannot see them.
