So I played a bit of the demo and this seems like a fun game.  Is it worth picking up?

I picked it up a few weeks ago. I haven't played it very much (too busy finishing CoD2 on Veteran) but from what I've played I'd recommend it.

You should pick it up, it's more than worth it.

The depth of content will keep you entertained for hours and hours.

Wow, more recommendations on this game. I guess it truly is worthy. Now if I could only get that sale price from a couple of months ago.

I just got it a few days ago from my online rental place, and its definitely fun, but it can be really annoying too. Often there is just too many things to do and not enough tools to do it all at once. It gets easier later when you get thins like the rainbows to keep your pinatas from fighting and the special shovel head to keep the bad guy away for longer (keeps him from coming so quick to destroy sick pinatas). But yeah, its a good game. Best bet tho is to make a ton of money just making the most expensive pinatas you can for a bit, then start a new garden and keep things organized. Your first garden will be a big mess.

To all those that rented it ... why, it's an awesome game ... lots of hours of fun to be had with it, and the more people that buy it the more inovation in games being produced .... RARE took a big gamble with this game and more sales means more risk can be taken in the future and less driving/ shooting / yawn games on the 360 roster!

Yes, its very addictive. Just got the last achievement yesterday. Its one of the few games that make a big deal when you get one. For example: when you get 30/50 achievements, a video starts and the pinatas start dancing becuase of your acomplishements, pretty cool IMO

I downloaded the demo and my little brother borrowed the full game from his friend over this past weekend. It is a very fun and addicting game. From young to old this game is enjoyable and challenging!!

I'm afraid of that. I played the demo for a little bit and then my g/f played it and she played it twice as long as I did. I kept on having to remind her that she's going to lose all of her work but it wasn't stopping her.

After playing the demo, I went out straight out and bought it. It is a really fun game and has enough chaos to keep you busy for a long time.

I was really hoping to like this game, I rented it and all it did was frustrate me.  I generally love sims, but for whatever reason I just couldn't stand VP.  I may give it another go in a few months, maybe timing was bad or something.  If you enjoyed the demo, you'll definitely enjoy the game.

At first when you start the game, it feels very overwhelming and chaotic since a lot of pinatas hate each other and there is just so much micromanaging to do.  Give it time, it will all settle down once you get helpers, and items to stop a lot of chaotic situations and make your life easier.

The only time I ever noticed that, was when the auto save feature showed up.  Other then that, the game is butter smooth.
