I've been playing it all day with my mate and I'm loving it.

I never thought hitting a plastic set of bongo's could be so much fun.

The re-done editions of the popular songs and the new Zelda theme is very dodgy (although to be fair the new Zelda theme is for the bongo aspect of it)... but I've been addicted to this all day.

And the box is massive, almost the size of the Gamecube box.

I hand over a case and my friendly local game retailer picks up a box roughly the size of my head.

Anyway yes, the game is extremley good fun especially with a mate. But also damn good on your own.

Snap it up.

Donkey Konga is great!

Whilst I did my work expirience at Gamestation (not joking) I beat two members of staff at it best out of 3.

The first one I beat was very good at games but I beat him 2-1 >:P

The second one was the assistant manager who bragged about how good he was about it, so I beat him 3-0. Then he became a bad loser and challenged me to Pro Evo 4. I only did it so he would shut up, so he won 5-0 in one game.

I haven't got Donkey Konga yet but I'm gonna get it for my birthday which is coming up :)

I don't think they ruined it.

It was never THAT great of a song anyway (and before you ask, Blink 182 are my favourite band). It still has the essence of the song. Not as good, no way, but it is still All the small things.

Alot of the time when I get tired of slapping them like usual I use my thumbs on the bongoe's buttons underneath the drumskin. Requires minimum effort.

Well, the way most people should play bongos is using your fingers, so that the mini knuckles curl round the edge of them.

Imagine drumming on your desk just now with your hands, it's the same way as using bongos.

I think that the theme tune and "The Impression That I Get" suit the game best. But "Don't Stop Me Now" is the best if you're just looking for a laff.
