The trend of releasing console demos of games that have already hit retail selves continues today with RARE’s Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise landing on Xbox LIVE. If you have been waiting on purchasing the game until you can play the demo, now is your chance.
Wanna recap of what to expect? Here is a gaming blurb courtesy of Major Nelson:
The Pinata Central database has been ruined by Professor Pester and his band of Ruffians. It’s your job to restore the data by collecting, customizing, & caring for over 100 different piñata species in Viva Pinata: Trouble In Paradise. Professor Pester has plans of his own to slow this process down. New features include: 2 person coop on one console, and 4 person coop over Xbox Live. Ability to compete in mini-games with your Pinata against others on Xbox Live. Over 100 Piñata from various realms including the new Polar Pinarctic & Dessert Desert. Photo Mode ability to share your amazing garden with everyone online. Piñata Vision allowing you to invite new species to your garden with the flash of a card at your Xbox Live Vision Camera.
PC users who wish to play around with the lives of zany piñatas are unfortunately out of luck. No PC demo has been released as of yet, but you can check out our review of it here, as well as the Xbox 360 review here.
If you were not too keen on the thought of gardens and colorful paper mâché animals before, it may not change your mind, but it is always good to keep an open mind. You never know when something outside of your tastes may tickle your fancy, and a demo is a fantastic way to find out.


Ah, what’s with that game? I have never tried it or never actually bothered to find out anything about it.
Off topic: Does that “Send us news tips!” really work? I have sent a few “news tips” but nothing has happened.

Doesn’t seem like they post anything on the weekend…or most of the week for that matter. What happened to this site? It used to be half decent, now it’s slowed right down.
