Taiko Drum Master is an entry in Namco's Taiko No Tatsujin rhythm game series and the first to have a Western release. As in other rhythm games, the goal is to interact with a special controller according to scrolling onscreen prompts timed to music. This game comes bundled with the TaTaCon drum controller, a miniature version of a Japanese taiko drum with sensors in the middle and on the sides. In-game actions are indicated by scrolling circle icons. Red circles indicate hitting the center of the drum, while blue circles require the player to hit the edge. On big circles, the player can hit both center or edge sensors for bonus points. Finally, yellow lines and balloons require the player to perform drum rolls. The game comes with a varied set of tunes: from covered pop hits like Material Girl and ABC to music from other Namco games such as Katamari Damacy and Dragon Spirit and even television theme songs. In addition, there are also several mini-games included on the disc that use the TaTaCon for more esoteric purposes, such as watermelon eating and wolf-stacking.

Additional Information

This lively game from Namco is based on Taiko, the traditional Asian style of drumming and dance. Though similar in concept to the contemporarily released Donkey Konga, this PlayStation 2 title is actually based on an arcade game that predates both console releases. Using a special drum controller, players are challenged to keep the beat with style as the music plays. The North American version of Taiko Drum Master features more than two dozen songs, including covers of pop hits such as "Material Girl," "Love Shack," and "My Sharona," familiar classical music like Beethoven's "Symphony No. 5" and Bizet's "Carmen Prelude," and original themes from Namco games such as Ridge Racer and Soul Calibur II.

  • Pound to the rhythm alone or go head-to-head with a friend

  • Play along to hit songs like amp;"Lady Marmalade", amp;"That's the Way (I Like It)", and amp;"Tubthumping"

  • Take on non-musical mini-games like a watermelon eating contest

    Controls: Gamepad/Joystick
