Is Donkey Konga worth it now?
« on: June 03, 2008, 12:07:50 AM »


I mean, on the one hand, it's a few years old, and I'm not big on rhythm games that aren't of the dancing or guitar-playing variety.

But on the other hand, Amy Winehouse seems to enjoy it.

Decisions, decisions...

Donkey Konga is a fun game. Play it with drumsticks and you'll be fine.

At least she's not holding DK:JB. I'd have a massive cry if she knew about that game.

Pro tip: hotlinking is not cool.

If you already have the bongos it might be worth picking up used. Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat was much more interesting.

I certainly wouldn't hold Amy Winehouse's opinion in high regard.

One should definitely get a set of two then, as well as all three of the supported games! :P

i did ;) they were buy 2 used games (or accesories) and get one free or something like that. I got a ton of stuff that day, donkey konga 1 was one of them. later i found donkey konga 2, still looking for jungle beat though (since Icecold keeps praising it)

Funnily enough, despite all her personal problems, the Amy Winehouse CD is actually really good (if you like that sort of music).
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

It is "pop", but it has a lot of soul influence.  It doesn't sound like anything else out there right now (at least not that I know of).
