Viva Piñata for Windows Coming Next Week

[Pecky Pudgeon]

The Games for Windows version of Viva Piñata is on its way to manufacturing, and will begin appearing in stores in the U.S. on November 6, followed by Europe beginning Nov 16, and January 18 in Japan. You just can't have enough Piñata goodness, and having it installed on kid's computer means my daughter will have a shot at building her garden without fighting with her brother over the Xbox. And having it installed on my laptop means I'm just a few flutterscotches away from another Achievement, even when I'm in an important meeting, uh, taking notes...

Viva Piñata will be available for both Windows XP and Windows Vista, and because it's officially a "Games for Windows" title, it offers easy installation, reliability standards, and support for key features of Windows Vista like the Games Explorer and Parental Controls. And because it supports "Games for Windows-LIVE," you can contact other gamers to lend a hand or trade items, and it has 1,000 Gamerscore points.

The Windows version was developed by Climax Group. For more information, go to VivaPinata.com, or GamesForWindows.com. And for more tips, tricks, and news, check out one the premier community site, PinataIsland.info.
