Patapon 3 is my favourite game in the series. The tapering of your army in Patapon 1 and 2 was a unbalanced to me, causing fights to last an upward of 20 - 40 minutes, leaving you with a couple patapons where you don't know if you'll win or die off at the end, causing you to need to restart. That was the main change needed to make the gameplay the most enjoyable, plus everything else got a massive upgrade alongside it, too. The intensity of this game is so well done. This game is visually stunning! I am immensely enamoured by its designs and animation, the music is absolutely unbeatable, there isn't a soundtrack like it. The weapons are cool and compelling, and I actually find the continuation of the story really nice! This game is ENDLESSLY funny, especially in comparison to the first and second games which were lighthearted and pleasant, but didn't exactly have a lot of humour. I find it weird that this game has a "rock" theme, because the soundtrack feels just so right for the series. I think I had mad beginner's luck the first time I played it, because I never realized how difficult it was until I heard others talk about it.
