Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise takes 31/40 from Famitsu

viva3.jpg

The first proper Viva 2 score’s in, and it’s from Japan. The cutesy animal sequel’s score 31/40 in Famitsu ahead of its European launch on Friday.

Still nothing from any European or US sites, but there’s not much time left, so expect a launch-time deluge.

Update: A few more scores. Worthplaying’s given it 8/10, while French site Jeuxvideo’s given is 16/20. Thanks, Gekidami and Rudolph.

Update 2: More scores. 1UP, A; EGM, A; Gamespot: 8.5. Thanks, Psychotext.

Not bad.

To prove I am British, I am going to do something very British. It’s insular, ignorant and wrong.

But…

Most French sites do indeed rate out of 20, Micromania.fr gave the game 14/20, and they’re an actual retailer.

I don’t know… I go to all that trouble to dig up the reviews and they don’t even update the article.
