framheim Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 anyone else got this? i bought it last week and have been playing it loads. it's damned addictive trying to get the next pinata's to come into your garden. i had an ace rabbit with a pirate hat which i named after my fiance but it got eaten i'm not naming the rest of them anymore, i get too attached. i was most upset when she was gobbled up by the fox.

The Kernel Loaf Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 I haven't played it, but anything must be better than the embarassing piece of shit Rare put out that was 'Grabbed by the Ghoulies'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeromiserY Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 haven't really been paying much to this. the whole idea seems so ridiculous!i'll see how this thread pans out before i think of going for it. the call of sonic is pretty strong though.

Guest Gasss Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Sonic the Hedgehog for the 360 is terrible apparently.Sonic the Hedgehog for Xbox 360 Review - Xbox 360 Sonic the Hedgehog ReviewYeah, I downloaded the demo on Xbox Live and it was almost unplayable due to camera/control/not being able to tell what the hell was going on issues.Also, check out this video of the loading times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the fuck does it take so long to load? It looks as if the whole town is being generated every time rather than the building textures/polygons remaining in memory, not to mention the guy you are speaking to should be in RAM aswell.Shocking. The game could have been awesome aswell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely someone would have complained while it was being made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeromiserY Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 okay, so sonic's loading times aint great... but they are nowhere as bad as that clip shows.also, it starts off SHITE, but does get a lot better a level or two into it.the demo in no way does it justice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dayeth Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Oooh, i've been interested in Viva Pinata since it was in Edge in the Summer, thought it looked pretty original, but seen as I've only just got a 360 with 4 awesome games to get through, I don't think I'll be getting anything new until Crackdown comes out. Now IT looks awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alvin Starclusk Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Sadly, my recently purchased 360 is 400 miles away being baby-sat by my sister until I head back to Edinburgh in a couple of months. Who'd have though it would be so damn heavy?Anyway, got hooked on Call of Duty 3, and don't see me playing much else until it's finished.
