Patapon 2 (PlayStation Portable, 2009)

Being the only game that i can think off that is downloaded of the internet instead of having a hard copy on a umd (a plus or minus depending on your preference).The actual game is a side scrolling rhythm/army/customization showdown that is an addiction to all who start and get it (some don't, too bad).

The use of rythem and keen attention to detail that allows simple moves like walk ,attack, and defend to become a balet with the person as the conductor.Control three company of different patapon tribes to hunt and crush all that get in your way. The use of the hero character puts a face on your black+white army ,able to become any type with masks of power to boost this stats becomes the single most optimized patapon available.
Plenty of levels and ability to replay areas over and over to collect iteams that could not be had before.The use of weather as a key strategic point especially critical for long and mid- range assaults.(pata-pata-pata-pom)

All in all the game is for though that want some thing more than just football and hack&slash. A game equal parts melee and music that rains spears and arrows on all others.

I was initially unsure whether or not I would like this game, but given the excellent reviews it received, I thought I would try it out. And I was not disappointed.

While it initially takes a little while to get used to the rhythm-based commands you use go guide your Patapons, after a while it starts to make sense, and your fights get very engrossing. NOTE: This game is very hard to play without the sound on. If you are in a crowded area, bring headphones.

The most excellent part of the game, however, is the depth of character customization. You can customize your little army with different types of fighters, and also customize the stats and attributes of each individual fighter through their evolution tree. You can also collect weapons and armor for them. It is very addicting, actually.

There is also a pretty neat online feature where you relive some of the major fights in a co-op mode, with each person bringing his/her hero (not their entire army). This looks pretty neat, although I have only tried it with bots.

All in all, I say this game is definitely worth the money. It will last quite a long time, and the character styles are fun to look at.

Initially played the demo and fell in love with the Game. This is a great buy.
The game is easy to pick up, all smiles during play and the game rhythm makes things interesting throughout. This game is truly unique, characters have personality and now I will be looking for more games like this one.

If you can find it on Ebay get a copy!
