Viva Pinata (360)

[Daragon]

Art book? You sure you're not thinking of the Gears of War LE?

[Number45]

Yep, see my edit.

[chopemon]

Finally my copy of this turned up from Woolworths, back the LE had been obviously priced up incorrectly just before Christmas.

Problem is, they've sent me the standard edition instead. Is it worth me sending it back for an exchange? Is there any additional in-game content? I understand the LE case isn't all that great.

i got the same thing today

i was going to go and change it at the store but the ltd ed case sucks ass and it has no bonus content

and i'm lazy

[Nijo]

Oh my. I picked this up today on a whim and started playing at around 9pm.
Now it's almost 4am.

Gah.

I've been trying to entice one of those deer in... I've got plenty of blackberries but they need short AND tall grass. Does that mean I shouldn't have flattened the grass at the start? How do I make new tall grass?

[Mad Gear]

Buy the long grass seed from the shop (costalot)

[SaijoBob]

I got a standard edition turn up from Wollie's yesterday as well, but at that price I'm not going to complain.

Finally tore myself away at 2.30am, and got back on it at 8.30am. The Master Romancer achievement is going to take a while to get!

I've just started customising the Pinata as well, adding sombreros wherever I can.

[Mad Gear]

I've rinsed this game over the past week but i've still got loads to do and see. It's getting a bit like hard work now though.

[Nijo]

Buy the long grass seed from the shop (costalot)

She says she's sold out.
I guess that means I'm not a high enough level? Same goes for the watering can upgrades...

[SaijoBob]

If she's sold out, are you sure you haven't bought it already? When you press "right" on the d-pad to select grass, press it again after and see if the packet changes - this will be the long grass.

I was maybe around level 10 when I could buy it?

[Ciaran]

Anyone know how to get the gatherer achievement? "Collected produce from a Buzzlegum, Moozipan or Goobaa"

I've got all 3 in my garden making produce yet no achievement.

EDIT: Turns out I already had it >_<

[EvilBoris]

I had a acheivement grind last night and managed to get 49/50 of them. Just gotta play the game for 50hrs now....

If anybody needs any particular items/pinata just let me know.
I'm also after a Dragonfly if anyone has access to them.

[Synthesthesia]

I've got one if you're still in need?

[1P_King]

Just brought this game last week and it really should come with a warning, once its in your 360 its not coming out for a long time.

One little thing that got me scratching my head was how you get one of the sours (forgot his name) to eat medicine.

Also whats the deal with the 'Growth Value' on plants and trees, even with three times special fertiliser the growth never seems to get off zero.

Also what pinate did everyone finish up with, at the moment i'm just speeding thu them all getting as many shagging as possible. But once i've picked up most of the achievements i'll build my final garden and settle on a few pinate.

[RLench]

You get medicine by buying (or making) honey and tinkering with it. Have you unlocked Tinker yet? He's a character who can come into your garden and change something into something else if you pay him some money

I've played this game almost exclusively since the 2nd December and I love it. It's one of the top 3 games on the console, IMO. I've just got two lions to breed and I've now converted all of the Sours. I'm also up to level 53 (Ultimate Gardener) so I think I'm near the end, sadly. I've still got loads left to do though - I bet I'm still playing this in six months

[1P_King]

Thanks RLench i'm around level 37 so i've unlocked a fair bit so far.

So Honey can be turned into Medicine - wouldn't of tried that.

Also i can't seem to find the requirements for a Mousemellow to visit my garden, its not in my journal and it doesn't look like a particular rare pinata.
