Does it bother you that the 360's success seemingly rests not on Master Chief's capable shoulders, but on a talking paper mache donkey? Does your little brother even like talking paper mache donkeys?
With all the pressure management is placing on Viva Pinata, I feel sort of obligated to buy a few copies and drop them off at the local daycare along with some licensed lunch pails. Hell, we may have to kneecap SpongeBob if things get ugly.
lol thats a real fan right there willing to take out the competition by any means necessary. is anyone here thinking about buying viva pinata? I'm thinking about it. (Can't quite put my finger on it, but I want it for some reason) I'd have to agree isn't spongebob popular as hell? Its like suppose to be about kids, but has so many jokes specificly targeted towards older audiences. Kids will have no idea what they mean, but we'll all laugh quietly that spongejob just said fuck, bitch, or shit and did it in such a way that they can get away with it without kids knowing what they mean. and don't forget the conversations regarding doing really weird things to girl's panties.

It just looks too nice and the whole concept sounds very fun. I cant wait to see all my little pinatas walking around my very own garden :D
Its games like this that is destroying the Xbox's hardcore reputation. Don't get me wrong, Kameo was alright. I mean my little 8 year old brother enjoyed it.

IMHO, its the hardcore reputation of the XBOX that killed it when compared to the Playstation. And if that same image continues, it will be the death of the XBOX 360.
The XBOX brand needs to diverisfy and expand to different genres and market. It cannot be known as an FPS box for teh hardcore forever.

Power + graphics
Halo, loads of PC ported FPSs and Mature RPGs and Racers.
and Xbox Live.
The only people that want games based on pinata's and fairy/elves are the japanese, and look how well the 360 is doing over there. MS should take the xbox back to it's roots and stop competing with nintendo and sony for the asian market.
Its better to have all those console there just in case it start to sell.
And it would clearly send wrong signals shiping back consoles from a market.
The Xbox had mostly hardcore violent games (the good days) and shooters, they're trying to extend there arms and dip there hands in more pockets.
It'll be good as there will be a greater veriety of games.

I bought an XBOX to play Halo 2. And after playing Halo 2, I discovered a wealth of amazing XBOX titles that I had the pleasure of playing namely Psychonauts, Odd World Stranger's Wrath, Phantom Dust, Ninja Gaiden etc etc.
I didn't buy the XBOX because it was the best in hardware, in fact I don't even give a damn about hardware during that time. I bought it for the games. I liked what I saw and I bought it.
People keep on bringing up Japan...yada yada yada but do you have any idea about other regions? I live in Asia and there are lots of us eagerly anticipating Ninety Nine Nights, which will be released in May much much much earlier than the western market. There are Asians who are actually enjoying the XBOX 360 at this very moment. In my country the XBOX brand is catching up rather well...and no we are not just playing Halo.
Stop basing your arguments based on your own myopic fairy assumptions.
Although Pinata's has nothing to do with Japan or Asia anyways so saying that Japan are the only people interested in this sort of game is total off..
Personally i would prefer they threw half the Pc ported crap in the bin before it even looked at the 360, but then there are people like you that what PC style games so i can't really say this..#
Games like Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, Resident Evil 5, Lost Planet, N3 are all going to be huge games on the 360 so why would you want MS to stop consentrating on Japanese support if that was the case we wouldn't even be getting Ninja Gaiden..
It's hardcoreness is what set it apart from the compitition. If xbox1 had the same variety of good and crappy, mature and kiddy games like Playstation then no one would have bought it. The very western approach to games is what made me and many others to trade their PS2 for xbox.
Nintendo specialise in kids games. (its a fact cocks that are about to get pissed off. Resident Evil 4 and Splinter cell!!!! 2 mature games, wow)
Xbox specialise in mature and skillful western games.
And Playstation specialise in a good blend of the two.
This is a nice equal balance to the console war. If xbox try to muscle in on Sonys turf, then I hate to say it, but they will get creamed.
Did you agree with me? Yes, No? Visit http://www.lebato.blogspot.com and see if we agree on something.

So you are saying that because people like me spend £300+ on a 360 and then do not spend £40 on childrens games, we are causing the 360 to lose support. yeah shawn
Yes the xbox/360 has a more mature "hardcore" appeal but this will only narrow its market share because not everyone is in to violent adult content.
I believe the Playstation has done so well (in fact i know so) because it has a wider selection of genre's and gameplay styles than the xbox did.
If the 360 opens itself to new consumers by conent like Viva Pinata it won't degrade the console in anyway, it will make it stronger, the 360 will still have alot of exclusive content and this is what sets different consoles apart not the style of games but the exclusives which it hold.
Like i have said in the past it's not hard for Ubi-soft, EA, Epic, ID, or anyone else to bring PC ports to the PS3 and i think it will happen more so this gen than it did last gen.
So if the 360 doesn't secure new genre's it will end up the PS3 having a full basket of games and the 360 with half a basket of PC ported titles..
Just because it's kiddyfied or wierd doesn't mean it wont be good (pikmin).
Just bacause it's by Rare doesn't mean it'll be great (PDZ).
Don't touch that Squirrels nuts!
You say we're getting there? Oh, fine.
Any minute now...

Want to come over and play with my Wii?.....hey where are you going?

Kameo and PDZ was both being created for Gc then xbox then rushed for 360,i forgive rare,even though i think they made 2 great games,sure i can see how many hated pdz,but it was a great MP game,,,
And sure it had just half the missions as in PD,but they was very beatiufl made and supported great xbl co-op.
And no,i dont want pinata either,it looks horrible to me...
But then again im not what they aim for...
And yes i do get that pokemon was aimed for very small kids but got even adults playing it and loved it,im not saying it wont happend with pinata but its main audience is not aimed for adults ffs ;)
Even though im sure many adults will love it too.
At my school if you own a purple box with a handle you will be stoned and laughed at.
Reputation and "coolness" is everything nowadays.
So sure its ok to play viva pinata if you are 30 years old and never leave the house, but for the casual gamer, they want what is cool. And nowadays it seems to be guns and violence, you gotta love it:)
