  • Abstract:  Virgin explorers of Pińata Island will be greeted by the same juxtaposition of relaxing garden design and hectic levelling that characterised the first few hours of the original, but with the addition of two breakout areas (the sandy Desert Dessert and...

  • New environments and pinatas offer variety; much improved inputs and interfaces; great community features encourage sharing and co-op play.
  • Scanning cards requires patience; youve still got to dig through layers of menus fairly often.
  • Poor Viva Pinata. When Microsoft announced that Rare was working on a new title in mid-2006, fans of the studio dreamt that theyd be getting another Banjo Kazooie or Killer Instinct title. Instead, the developer unveiled a brand-new IP created to take...

  • Abstract:  The ultracolorful visuals of Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise hide a deep and engrossing simulation of what it must be like to pump papier-mache animals full of candy. Following on the heels of the deceptively addictive 2006 original, developer Rare ha...

  • Great rewards system, Pinatas are super cute, Tons of depth and replay value, Cooperative mode helps ease inexperienced players into the game, Very impressive visuals, both technically and artistically.
  • The same basic game as the original, Voice acting is terrible.
  • Theres no trouble in this paradise: The second Viva Pinata is just as captivating as the first, with enough tweaks and new additions to make this great for everyone. ...
