005 - Viva Piñata

Welcome to Geekscape’s newest gaming podcast, Xbox Game Passengers. Every other Wednesday, host Derek and a guest will dissect and discuss just one game available on Microsoft’s Game Pass service, which was chosen for them completely at random. Whether it’s a magical or a horrible experience, they’ll force themselves through it, share their thoughts, and let you know whether or not the game is worth your time! At the end of each episode, they’ll also randomly select the game for the following show. This episode, longtime Xbox fan Mike joins Derek to chat about Rare's quirky 2006 gardening / weird animal farming game, Viva Piñata.They also chat about the surprisingly funny animated series that briefly preceded the game, and how much they wishedthat the game would go mobile or at least get an Xbox One X Enhanced update... then a few weeks later it did, so now you can play it in 4K! "Attract and tame your favourite Piñatas. There are more than 60 species that roam wild on Piñata Island. Personalise everything from the grass at your feet to the hat on your Piñata's head. Welcome to Piñata Island, enjoy your stay!" We’ve had a blast making Xbox Game Passengers so far, and we really hope that you’re enjoying it too!
