Patapon Press Kit...

I guess we're the lucky ones, R-Force. I just checked that DVD I mentioned on my laptop. It contains screen shots, videos press release info and there's an interesting Q&A with the artist and the lead developer. Apparently they're working on Patapon figures. 'Tis a shame that Patapon is almost unplayable to me, as my rhythm really is that bad.

Do you know whether the UMD is any different to the normal version of Patapon?

Well I actually picked up the retail version too and it's essentailly the same as these are review copies.

Take a look at this (from PlayStation Blog):

Could these be the figurines?
