Viva Pinata: Party animals just arrived in stores today but you might want to think twice before rushing to that Target on the edge of town where no one will see you buying a game called Viva Pinata and spending your shameful dollars – IGN says that this is the Viva Pinata game only the youngest of the young could enjoy:
To reiterate the reoccurring theme of this review: If you have a child under the age of seven then chances are you'll be able to sit down and enjoy Viva Piñata for a short while with them, or you can just plop the little tike in front of the TV for a few hours and hope that they don't possess superior gaming talent. If they do, they'll be done with the game in around an hour, meaning you'll have to go back to being a parent again only you won't have the fifty bucks you just dropped on Viva Piñata: Party Animals.
While the original Viva Pinata was an adult game cleverly disguised as a kid's title it looks like there's little substance to be found in poor Party Animals. I'm still crossing my fingers for a real sequel.
