Games with Gold is back for another month and once more Microsoft have rummaged around at the very back of their magical game cupboard and found a couple of old games to giveaway for Gold Members. Again co-op is catered for in the form of Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise, a game that is FILLED WITH FUN!
It may have been lost in all the fall release shuffle, but you'll recall a nice little game called Viva Pinata: Trouble In Paradise. As we stated in our review, it's the perfect sequel to a fantastic game, and greatly benefits from the addition of co-op, both online and even local. One of the new features in VP2 was the availability of snow for your garden. Why not use that to make your garden the perfect Winter Wonderland? Here are some tips, straight from Rare.
Good news folks! Not only did Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise get an significant feature upgrade with 4 player online and offline co-op, but it got a price reduction as well!
A mere week ago, we reported a rumor via a leaked achievements list from Viva Pinata: Trouble In Paradise. Today, that rumor has been confirmed: Viva Pinata 2 will support up to four co-op players, either locally or online. This news makes the little gardener inside of me get a little woozy, I must admit. The first game was great fun, and even my wife and kids liked to watch me play. However, with up to four people being able to participate at once, I imagine this little game will stay in our 360's disc tray for quite a while.
Some great news for co-op fans has popped up, and it's almost too good to be true. A list of achievements for the upcoming Viva Pinata: Trouble In Paradise has been revealed. In addition to your standard gardening type achievements, similar to the first game, there is a rather intriguing one called "Full House". Worth 10 Gamer score, the achievement is unlocked after you "Play 4 Player Online Co-op for 1 hour". If the list is legitimate, this is serious news, as 2 player local co-op was all that had been announced so far. Fire up the cameras and get your watering can ready!
Holy Horstacios! The brand new entry to the grossly under appreciated Viva Pinata series has a release date, and it's September 5th, 2008. The game will feature over 30 brand new creatures along with all of your old favorites, as well as new gameplay modes, new weather effects and of course co-op. That's right you and your buddy or kids can sit down and enjoy the virtual pinata gardening experience together with expanded co-op options, including co-op specific features and bonuses.
It was previously reported, though the details were sparse. But now we have the goods as well as some hands on impressions of the Viva Pinata sequel courtesy of Wired.
The first details and screenshots for Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise have been discovered by TeamXbox. The details on the game are very sparse, but what we know is that Viva Piñata 2 will have some form of co-op, so that you and a buddy (or your kid) can garden together in some manner. Other than that, there are no more details, though you hit the link you can see some screenshots. As a fan of the original Viva Piñata, I can say that online co-op does sound pretty nice. How about you?
