Viva Pinata: a word for word transalation means I live pinata?, what

I love PS3.

It's more like "long live the pinata".

I hope its a new codename for Killer Instinct, i really hope.

So it's something that you can bust open and get candy from? Sounds awesome.

Long Live Pinatas!

I look forward to playing this game on my xbox 720

actually its "live pinata" or "[he/she/it]lives pinata"

Actually Silverwolf was right.

I am from Cuba.. when we say "Viva Cuba" it is taken as "Long Live Cuba".. not "Lives Cuba".

You are probably using a Spanish dictionary of sorts, and Viva could be taken as "lives", but when used a whole phrase "Viva (something here)" it is normally taken as "long live (whatever)!".

Uh oh.... now we'll get to see what rare can produce after having more time with a final 360 dev kit. They didn't get final dev kits till august 2005 which didn't give em enough time to take advantage of tiling to fully make use of the 360's 10MB of edram.

I want Viva Pinata to mean "KILER INSTINCT 3".

Viva La Pinata

Sounds Like A Mr Pants Title. The One On GBA Rocked And I'll Be looking Forward to this if it comes out.

I have heard of Rare and there games on the Nintendo and Nintendo 64 are the best I have ever seen. Rare is a company which embraces quality, and has outstanding attention to detail. I believe children will love this new emerging idea that Microsoft has decided to embrace, as well allowing them to entertain in a family oriented and acceptable to children style, instead of teaching children to be war mongers and that shooting things is good it will turn the gameplay backinto being a game, or at least I hope that is the goal in mind.

Robert K Breton:

You do know that one of Rare's last two Xbox 360 games was a first-person shooter, right?

Just because Rare used to develop for Nintendo doesn't mean all their games are appropriate for small children. That isn't the Xbox 360's target market, really. Or Sony's, for that matter.

Narcogen : No I did not know, I bet it has outstanding attention to detail, and is of high quality which is what I have come to expect from RARE. They have a tendancy to always pay alot of attention to detail, quality, and have well thought out games.

I believe RARE just got the contract for the new childrens series of cartoons Microsoft is developing called Piñate. Have you heard of this, and/or are you familiar with Piñate & XBOX games based on Piñate characters? Piñate is to be for a young audience.. ie children.
