And this is a DLC Pack? If so, then what does it contain? We NEED more info to be sure this doesn't get closed.

I'm looking, I'm looking! :D

The announcement came as G4TV cut to commercial, but it is scrolling on the bottom & those who watched the streaming feed online reported it as well.

Did you see they added a Viva Pinata: Party Animal forum just now? I wonder what the first thread will be about. :D

From Major Nelson's Twitter page, as he blogs from the event:

"He is showing the new game PARTY ANIMALS w/ the characters from Viva Pinata ."

The "he" is Peter Moore. http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/exec/pmoore/default.mspx

It's not DLC or related to Viva Pinata, but a new and different game. What I got from the Press Conference, is that you can play as your favorite pinata; it has over 50 party/racing games.

Microsoft just announced a new Viva Pinata made mostly of mini games very similar to Mario Party. It's called Viva Pinata Party Animals.

i don't get it can you use pinatas from your game like my fizzlybear or do i have to be franklin from the tv show. If it is based off the tv show i won't get the game but i will if it is based off the original game

It's a completely separate game, so it has nothing to do with pinatas in your existing garden.

I imagine the characters are based off the TV show (e.g. you can play as Hudson, Franklin, Paulie, etc.)

I hope the stuff they showed was only scratching the surface. I could understand if that was not totally developed but how can I "play as my favorite pinata" if I'm stuck with only four characters. I want Les!

They gotta have hidden/unlockable characters!

It says "including" those four so you can probably expect a few more on top of that.

Yeah and think about the roster for Mario Party...

What was shown in the E3 video does only scratch the surface. There are a lot more mini-games than just those shown.

It would also lead to playing as the Twingersnaps, or Langston, or even Pecky Pudgeon, with Pierre Parrybo as the announcer.

I think Pecky is also an announcer
By the way are you the same YoshiAngemon from tv.com? because I'm on there too (Lollipopnchan, because of the book that I read a few hours before starting my account)

I'm looking forward to this. My only problem is getting someone to play with me.

Do bear in mind that you'll have the whole Xbox community to play with too if you have a gold account.

BIGSheep says he will play with anyone that hasn't got anyone else to play with. All you need to do is send him a friend request and keep messaging him until he agrees to a game.... he may not respond straightaway so just keep sending them messages :-)
