Music oriented games are always fun for me. I love being able to sing along. With this game I also get to feel like I'm actually playing the music too. Big plus. Players who had the first version of the game will also like this one a lot. There were no real ground breaking changes from the game, but it was good to finally be able to clap along with new songs. It has some nice new songs - Even some modern hits, as well as a fresh new look. This is a good sequel.

Look. I like the donkey kongas. The first one was great. The second one has been a bit of a letdown. Oh sure it's fun and delivers that but, for instance, in the first game I knew 85% of the songs. I can only recognize 30% of the songs in the new game because the others are just horrible drek I wouldn't listen to to begin with! There were a few surprise songs on there that I was glad to see, but the song that "sampled" the music from the "Young and the Restless" is, well, just HORRIBLE! It should have been better; at least better songs to choose from and Nintendo failed to pick those. I still have fun with it irregardless of some of the C"rap"py music. If you know a lot of newer songs, you'll love it. It's just good for me. Not great. No Motown? No Beatles? No Elvis? No 70's classic rock? What happened?

not bad, could be even better

This game is not bad. you beat LEFT, RIGHT, BOTH, CLAP according to the music notes that scroll across the screen.

however, for some songs, the beat of the song doesn't match that of the appearing note, even for the simple level. on the difficult level, the notes come out just too fast and you can't even match that to the tempo, not to mention you have to match the LEFT/RIGHT/BOTH/CLAP. can you do 5 or 6 LEFT/RIGHT/BOTH/CLAP within 2, 3 seconds without mistake? to me, maybe that's possible if the notes is memorized... but is this a game about memorization?

also, this game could improve by setting a mode that a "star" comes out instead of the LEFT/RIGHT/BOTH/CLAP, and with the star you can do LEFT/RIGHT/BOTH/CLAP and it still count as a "match". that way, it can be simpler and it can work like the taiko drum master on ps2.

Simple, yet surprisingly fun.

I was hesitant to pick this game, since I had played it just a bit before. I bought the Donkey Konga 2 pack, with the bongos. I played it, and loved it. The soundtrack isn't the best (from what I hear, Donkey Konga has a better one), but some of the songs on it are actually quite good. There should be a introduction to the game though, to teach users which color equals what button. I've had a blast with this game, and am still trying to beat some of the tougher Gorilla remixes. I'd recommend this to anyone who has some resemblence of a beat.

Donkey Konga 2 Rocks!

I love this great toy! I love it even though I barley recognize any of the sogs. I love this great game and you might think that the price is a little steep, I think it could be lowered, but it is great! You got to get this game for your kid, I got it for Christmas and I love it!

Fun But difficult

This I would have to say is a very fun game. At first glance I never would have thought it could be fun for people older than 12. But I was completely wrong.
The game offers loads of fun for all ages and can be fun either by yourself (Not recommended) or with up to 3 other people. When you have a bunch of friends together and you want to find a reason to make fun of one another than this will be your game.
Watch out for those higher levels though. They are extremly hard. You have to be some little kid that plays in your momma's basement all day to get good at those.

Over all, its a great group game. I would recommend it. Good luck collecting all those Bongos!

LOADS OF FUN

My son bought this for our daughter and at first I thought, "GREAT, MORE STUFF TO CLEAN UP." But we haven't stopped playing it since! We laugh so hard at our first (or second, or third...) attempt at the hard songs, but it's all worthwhile when you finally get to "clear" a song. It totally ROCKS!
