Parapa the Rapper type games

[GT Kodiak]

Hey Guys,

Just wondering if anyone knows of anything on the XBone/360/PC that plays in the style of the old Parapa the Rapper on the PSX?

Suitable for a little one if possible.

Depends what you mean, Parapa was one very different game for it's time and still is.

I suppose some form of children's rhythm/music game would be closest to hit the nail.

It's a shame that number 3 is only on the horizon as a possibility, i can remember having a ps1 and being completely confused by the game, but enjoying it.

Supposedly PaRappa the Rapper 3 is being worked on by Media Molecule (of Little Big Planet) for PS4 and Vita. That may not help you if you're not on that platform.

Wow, they're making a third?!

I remember it being fun to watch someone else play as you could follow the "plot" and a challenge for the person actually playing.

I played REZ on the PS2? And quite liked it but it's not going to captivate my daughter. I thought she might like Pixeljunk's EDEN but that might have been a little too technical.

That's when I thought of the "dance-mat" style of Parrapa.
