DIY Patapon Cosplay
Unless you find their particular brand of chirpy percussion grating, the Patapon are a lovable bunch. Lovable enough to dress up as, perhaps? Sure, why not. More » -

Rumor: Patapon 2 Retail Copies Won't Ship On UMD
Sony may be taking a rather unusual step at retail with Patapon 2, making the PSP a digital download only, but still offering a boxed copy at retail. How would that work, exactly? More » -

Patapon 2 Review: A Familiar Beat
The first Patapon was something of a success. The PSP game was a hit with critics and some gamers, but never really set the sales charts on fire.

Sony Holding Patapon 2 Demos For Ransom
Demos are advertising. Interactive, sometimes enjoyable advertising, true, but advertising nonetheless. Maybe not a great idea, then, when Sony restricted access to the Killzone 2 demo. Restricting access for a Patapon 2 demo is even worse. More » -

Let's Patapon 2 Multiplayer
Who wants to hear about Patapon 2? And, specifically, about it's biggest new addition, multiplayer? Oh, you? Great, take a seat. We spoke with Patapon creator Hiroyuki Kotani today, and got a good look at the sequel's new multiplayer aspect, which lets up to four players (ad-hoc) take part in a two-stage affair. First stage, it's standard Patapon stuff, with players taking control of customisable heroes (with masks!) as you kill animals. Second stage you take the animal's egg, and play what amounts to a Parappa/Bemani section, where you hit buttons as symbols pass a marker. Hit them well enough and the egg breaks, and you get...yes, a mask! More » -
