You may be confused about what Viva Pinata: Party Animals is. It's only natural. Perhaps this conversation Hilary and IGN's Erik Brudvig had will clear things up. If not, the hands-on impressions that follow surely will.
It’s time to announce the May Games with Gold lineup! On the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, flip and bump your way thru Yoku’s Island Express, and solve mind-bending puzzles in The Inner World – The Last Wind Monk. And for our classic lineup via Backward Compatibility, race across waves in Hydro Thunder Hurricane, and have loads of fun in Viva Piñata Party Animals.
The first VP was pretty fun, never played party animals. Hydro thunder is one of my favorites on the DC and this update was on GwG before but still a fun game for anyone who missed it. Never heard of the other two.
Queue the onslaught of "why do they even bother" comments. While i don't totally disagree that Gold games have been awful, every once in a while one pops on their that I try and end up liking. I mean if you have to pay, why complain about games they give you.
I don’t know why they bother, but on the flip side PS+ is following the same path now that they have Spartacus.
Yeah fifa 22 is just the same as 10/12 year old Xbox 360 games 🙄🤦🏻♂️ 🤣 do people even think about what they are saying let alone actually typing out and pressing add 🥴🤣
@RoweeSon
You’re absolutely right! I don’t know what came over me. I’ll be sure to think before I speak from now on. I appreciate your help with showing me how wrong I am.
@rosweeson
I mean honestly speaking fifa 22 is basically the same as a 10/12 year old 360 game since fifa is basically the same every year.
I think Microsoft is trying to make PsPlus look good with these horrible GWG line up.
They're just trying to get people to move over to GPU for better options. Otherwise, whoever is subscribed just doesn't care about the games and just online stuff.
Basically.
I've said this latest month but GWG is strictly for the casuals who have gold only. Just like you said if you want better options then get Gamepass. GWG is no longer for the hardcore audience anymore.
The ONLY thing bad about gamepass is how Microsoft completely started taking dumps on games with gold ever since. In my opinion (OPINION) PlayStation plus gave better offerings most of the time but there were times where games with gold would win a few FOR ME. Now it’s a landslide. They should put the same effort into games with gold as they do gamespass. Just take the games off, reduce the price, and call it Xbox Live again.
This article describes five behaviors that go above and beyond normal achievement hunting, suggesting a severe Gamerscore addiction.
im nowhere near that bad. did not play kids games (apart from Kung Fu panda that came with my xbox and was NOT EASY FOR ACHIEVEMENTS) and i don't use a robot or play hannah montana.
those 5 signs are BAD.. but i do like my gamerscore
I would definitely say if you find yourself following in the path of any one of these warning signs, you may have a problem, haha.
Gamerscore is a great idea and concept, but I'd love to see it yield more tangible rewards for those who are truly dedicated to it.
It would be nice to gain something in-game from the achievements that constantly pop up.
I still believe that a higher gamerscore tends to tell a bit more about the player than people think. You have to play A LOT of games to get what is considered to be a respectable score...The only way you do that is by playing games outside of the popularity charts as well.
And without a doubt it may be bit tacky to get an achievement for random things in-game but it is also somehow genuinely satisfying.

There is one gear that is for too often missing from this living, breathing machine that is a solid video game experience. I'm of course talking about the use bodily functions as a game mechanic. Yes, those awesome and often immature moments in games that make us laugh, and get us a little queasy: flatulence, burping, urinating - they are all great ways to advance through a level or defeat an enemy. If projectile vomiting is more your thing then keep reading because I've got that covered too."

this actual sounds pretty fun a mario kart/party game, if its fun i may pick it up.
And an even bigger surprise people are liking Scene it!
Its good to see Pinatas back. The original was a masterpiece IMO and was sadly ignored by most. Hope this one can bring more fans to Viva Pinata universe.
Good to see that Rare was able to sport out a sequel to one of it's games. Glad Viva is making a statement for the 360 casuals
not by rare? wow thats a shame! hopefully they do a good job though, i loved viva pinata and bought it and gears when they released, and had a great time playing both
i cant wait for this and scene it, its good to have some casual fun games, i get so sick of serious stuff all the time, im looking forward to blue dragon and naruto too oh and rock band and guitar hero 3
as for serious games want mass effect pgr4 and halo 3
but e3 was fully worth it for me just hearing viva pinata party animals being anounced for this year! bring it on!
