    Just wondering if anybody else out there is picking this up (release date today). I've mine ordered from videogameplus.ca as it's region free (only works out at about €30). Loved the first one and the fact that this has co-op might get the girlfriend involved as well:)

    You really need to do the tutorials in viva pinata, it's quite a complex game. Once you grasp it though it's quite easy.

    Started playing the original last night.


    It's more addictive than crack.

    Hoping that this will arrive on monday. It'll probably be the last game I get till Christmas as I have too many unfinished titles (mostly Ps2 but I've still to beat the last boss on Ninja Gaiden 2).

    The first one was brilliant, totally unlike the games I'd play normally.

    I know, I never thought it would be this good. But now my real life problems have been completely dwarfed by ones like how to get me bleedin doenut to stop startin fights! Any tips in that respect, or in general?

    Definitely use the game encyclopedia on how to attract different pinatas etc. Found this to be a great help. At the start I was just attracting all my pinatas by chance!

    I think if some of your pinatas are fighting best get rid of one breed. I think you are meant to be able to soak them with your watering to stop them but it never worked for me.

    You can but only just before they start fighting. If they begin to fight there's nothing you can do.

    Certain breeds just won't get along, so you can't really keep both without fighting. Like Ponockies and Horsetachios.

    Got a nice garden going now, level 70-something gardener, some real expensive wildcards too, like my Tigermisu sabretooth, worth 75k now :-O

    If anyone's looking for any particular pinatas feel free to drop me a message.

    I pre-ordered mine from GAME, so hope to have it today or tomorrow.
    It was supposed to come with 10 exclusive cards, but seemingly they forgot to include them so they put them up online instead.
    If anyone has the Vision web cam and a colour printer, you can get the images here.

    You don't need a printer, you can put them on your ipod and scan them from that, or so I've heard.

    I'm trying to find the cheapest copy of Viva Pinata Trouble in Paradise. I have found quite a few that say "region free". As I have never bought a game for my husband's xbox360 before (and he only has PAL games), is it fine to buy a region free game or do you have to do something to the console to make it play?

    No, it works fine.

    Not sure where you're planning on buying from, but it's $39.99CDN on VG+ at the moment. (€31.56 including delivery)
    I'd heartily recommend them, as will many others here.:)
