Donkey Konga

Has anyone else picked this masterpiece up yet? It's a music game much like DDR, but instead of dancing along on a pad you pound away on a pair of bongos. It's a lot harder than it looks and is amazingly addictive. The only downside is that the disk features around 30 songs (but you do get to play each song on four different difficulty levels, making even "We Will Rock You" a bitch), so they better ship the expansion soon.

For $50 you get the game and bongo controller, which is a really sweet deal. Much like DDR, even non-gamers are going to playing this one.

At a glance, it reminds me a lot of Samba de Amigo, which is one of my favorite games of all time. I can't imagine they'd have a better track listing on Konga than they did on Amigo, though.

In case you're unaware, Samba was a Dreamcast game using maraca controllers. You shook and positioned the maracas in time with the music. I never bought the maraca controllers, because it was fun as hell with the standard pad.
