Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise, Encore!

Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise has been well worth the wait, this is a highly addictive, family friendly game that also requires the player to use their brain instead of mindlessly killing etc. The original was a huge success and why change a highly successful reciepe? I think the other realms and ability to trap exotic pinata's are a huge bonus, as well as the large range of plants. The inclusion of original pinatas with the new ones are a great idea, and not only that, they've altered the original pinatas appear and resident requirements to spice it up! The pinatas now respond more with each other and the environments (not that they didn't before!) but now they get scared. Pinata Central no longer appears randomly but is a permanent part of the garden, giving the player some initative to complete tasks set out by Langston. Two player is now avalible but in my opinion it is a single player game. Professor Pester is highly annoying and so is his ruffians, my absolute favourite pinata is the Flapyak, keeping it out of Pester's clutches is quite a challenge! Sour Pinata now come with pesky weeds like Fireweed, Dandilion, Pricklypear etc and also have altered resident requirements. I say this game is not a simple extention to the original game, it is in itself a highly addictive and well designed game that keeps you entertained for hours, I'm calling for a third installment featuring Australian animals, sharks, giraffes, wilderbeast etc.
