IMO, I think VP is going to attempt to be Microsoft's #1 family-friendly franchise.
MS needs to focus Rare (since they own it) on the Viva Pinata franchise, as well as the Banjo Kazooie series. Rare's just about the only good non-Nintendo company for family friendly titles (atleast in terms of putting a ton out that are great).
VP was a masterpiece of a real-time simulation game and vastly undersold and underrated. But with a system like X360, it needs ALOT of games like this, like JRPGs, to build the userbase - the base isn't already there, but if enough games come out like VP, VPA, and such, they will start selling real well.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
