Taiko no Tatsujin 5 GO GO
What a great series of games! My husband and I first played it in the arcades in Tokyo and when I got home I just had to have the at-home version. This is definitely the best music-related game I've ever played. Not only does it have some great music, but its been very attractively designed and presented - its a very bold and beautiful game full of incrediably cute characters.

Great; worth your time and money
After buying Taiko USA, I decided that it SUCKED and that the main reason I bought it was for teh controller. I got this game and was very happy that I spent 60 bucks on the controller. IT's a fantastic game, with about 50 songs. Some of the mentionable ones are "Daddy Mulk" and "Rotterdam Nation (foo mix)". The mediocre classical pieces on the US game are replaced here with good score and the namco originals are all great.

This game is fantastic!! Buy it. It's worth every penny if you've enjoyed the series of games so far, and as always, Taiko is pretty simple so great for beginners too, I guess...

Bottom line: buy.
