Do you recommend I buy them all or just one?

DK Jungle Beat is a platform game, similar to Donkey Kong Country, except you play it with a set of Bongos, and a big part of it is beating highscores, and getting Gold Crests. It's a whole lot of fun, but also a whole lot of noise. Be prepared to have everyone in the house hate you while you are having a blast.

Both Donkey Kongas are rhythm games, so you're hitting a drum at the same time as the indicator says, similar to Dance Dance Revolution and games like that. Donkey Konga 1 has Nintendo themes and Latin music, while Donkey Konga 2 went for a songlist of mostly American pop tunes (Good Charlotte, REM, etc). I haven't played either, but apparently they are only worth a purchase for multiplayer).

I think Donkey Kong Jungle Beat is well worth the money. It's one of the most unique games I've ever played, and is incredibly addictive.

EDIT: Dyne beat me
