This fantastic game is out in the UK today, got my copy earlier anyone else played it yet? Been through the demo many times and its an excellent game worthy of the praise its been getting from many review sites.
For those who dont know Patapon is a PSP game that combines the genres of RPG,RTS and rhythm action games. You control a tribe called the patapons by using drums to beat out phrases to the beat to make them advance defend attack etc. You can aquire weapons from defeating enemies, gather resources to gain rare materials to create better troops, upgrade and equip each one etc, just like an RPG (simple one). There is also planing involved in which troops to take in battle, the position in you line up, which weapons are going to be most effect and also the boss battles may take a bit of planning to know best tactics to win.
There is no pause while in the battle as the developers think it wouldnt work as rhythm is so important and you would lose the feel off the game. But you can quit back to base while in a mission if you want.
Anyway the US release is next week so maybe a few more will have it then, but its well worth a purchase.
I got a few tips if anyone needs them but wont post unless asked as it may spoil things a bit.
