Patapon trailer delights some, terrorizes rest


The Joystiq staff is somewhat divided in our reactions to Patapon, the rhythm/real time strategy Frankengame coming to the PSP early next year.

Still, there are some of us who watch the above trailer for the game and feel like we're staring down the barrel of a nightmare gun. Those pitch-black, cycloptic abominations are unsettling enough -- why do they have to sound like Furbys in a microwave?
