Rare has put live its community site for
Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise ahead of the game's launch this Friday.
On the site, players will be able to share with the world photos of their gardens and their Piñata Vision cards, which can be used with the Xbox Live Vision Camera to interact with the game.
Elsewhere in the world of
Viva Piñata Rare has sent a video SPOnG's way that, frankly, terrifies us. Remember that
Halo 3 advert spoof we
showed you a month ago? This is the 'making of'. This is just how much effort
Viva Piñata fans will go to in the name of the game. Scary stuff.
Rare has also sent word of a Piñata treasure hunt over on
Xbox.com this Friday. The blurb runs as follows:
“
Viva Piñata is back but not everything in the garden is rosy – Professor Pester and his band of Ruffians are determined to cause Trouble in Paradise! To celebrate the launch of
Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise Xbox.com is holding a huge Piñata Hunt so that you can unlock exclusive Piñatas featuring unique colour schemes and accessories.
“All you need to do is put on your best Piñata-hunting hat, head to
www.Xbox.com, scour the site for Piñata eggs and click on every one you find! By using your Xbox LIVE Vision Camera and the amazing Piñata Vision feature in
Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise you can put the Piñata straight into your garden! Happy hunting!”
Here's the video. Enjoy! You can find out more about the game over on SPOnG's
dedicated game page.
