Rating: - Donkey Conga
I know you can probably not even buy the drums anymore, but if you have them, this is a great game. It is much more sophisticated that the original and it has more levels/options you can play. My son loves it and tells me that it is "way more" fun than the original PS2 game that the drums come with.
Rating: - Even Mediocre Music Couldn't Keep It Down
Basically the music in this is no better than your average blend of a 6 month late Now compilation, however the gameplay is so incredibly addictive and fun that it's pretty easy to forgive it. If you give in to the fact that really dorky bad song can be fun and goofy to play if you don't take it too seriously(example: Smash Mouth's "All-Star"), then it's a blast. This is Donkey Konga, not Guitar Hero. It's best when played with friends in my opinion, but it has it's moments on those lonely days as well. I cannot forgive it for not having a few Nintendo classics on it like the last one did though. Not even a reworking of the "DK Rap," quite possibly the best song to ever hit the DK universe.

Much better songs than the first edition! I like this game alot.
Rating: - Donkey Konga - a great game with horrible music
The game mechanics are incredibly fun and this fact cannot be overstated. What hampers the game is the incredibly horrible selection of music. Unfortunately, since this game is, for all intents and purposes, a MUSIC game the resulting experience is far more unsatisfactory than one could imagine. I'm not sure who picks the music that is okayed to appear in the game, but when Hillary Duff appears as one of the better tracks in the game you know that you have a problem. More original music would have been far more satisfying (the Donkey Konga 2 theme song was one of the best tracks in the game) and a system that rewards you with extra SONGS as the game progresses would have made the game far more enjoyable. If you are anything more than a casual gamer I would say pass up on buying this game (but be sure to rent since the experience is fun), but if you are under the age of 11 or are buying for that age group do buy this game. To summarize the game you could compare it to eating pineapples: great in small doses, bad when you overdo it.
