These are the characters from that ridiculously addictive rhythm game, Patapon.

The Patapons are walking, talking eyeballs that are depending on you (whom they refer to as 'Almighty WhateverYourNameIs') to lead them via drum beats to Earthend such that they may gaze upon IT. Along the way you will need lots of Ka-Ching and Tender Meat if you want to raise some truly awesome warriors at the Tree Of Life. (I kid you not, these are the original terms used)



Here we have a scene of the Patapons trying to defeat the Zigatons and steal their catapult, giving them enough muscle to topple the Zigaton Fort at Dodon Basin.

If you observe the Patapons, they look rather angry. This is an indication to you (the Almighty) that they are within attack range. Normally they look passive like Hatapon (the flag-bearer)

Grumpy thinks this game is of Filipino origin cos when you complete a mission they will cry 'Tang Ila Mo' - roughly translated as 'Fuck You Bitches' in Tagalog.

It is next to impossible to play this a) without headphones b) whilst talking -- well for me anyway.
