Fun:
After hearing a sequel to Viva Pinata was in the pipeline I became intrigued to know how Rare intended to improve on the original. In my opinion the original was near flawless in execution providing me - an Adult - hours of fun for what is considered a kids games.
My first impressions with Trouble in Paradise are very positive. Rare have shown a dedication to their fans by not fixing, what was not broken. They've left the basic controls the same, with some additional improvements (e.g the repetitive nature of buying and planting seeds). The number and variety of Pinata's has also increased significantly, and right from the start players of the original game will get to see and play with these new creatures. Again the basic concept of the original game remains unchanged, with the exception that the "Party" pinata tasks have been considerably revampped. Before they seemed largely irrelevant and an unneccessary distraction now they contribute significantly to the introduction and romancing of the new species particularly in the new desert and arctic "visiting" gardens.
This game is really addictive and grows on you quickly. Don't let the cutesy nature fool you either. Even the most seasoned of gamers will struggle to see all of the Pinata's in the game - and I don't believe it will be for the want of tryiny as there is enough variety and achievements to play this for 80+ hours. You've been warned!

Fun:
I'm pleased to say this version of Pinata is similar to the original in terms of gameplay and controls. I'm pleased because i traded in my Pinata game to get this new one!. All the old characters are there, along with some new ones - although i havent played long enough to see them all yet!. I didnt think the tutorial was as good as the first game - i was ok because i am a seasoned Pinata player and as the controls were pretty much the same, it was easy to get the hang of. However for new players i think the tutorial could of been a bit better.
My only other gripe is that the romancing mini games have become harder! you now have to collect a required amount of love hearts before reaching the end of the maze. To be honest i don't think that was necessary as some of the mazes were hard enough!
All in all - if you liked Viva Pinata - you will like this game as its much the same.

Fun:
Yes this is a good game i enjoyed the first one also, it can seem a tad childish but still enjoyable none the less.
the first game had some problems with the controls but they have sorted most of these out.
my only problem is the the live vision system, it's good when it works but i seem to have trouble getting it to scan stuff in,
all and all a good game and really good value! i mean a brand new 360 game for around £30 well worth a buy
