Summary: Interesting, but way too repetitious for me
Comment: I'd long heard the praises of this game from various sources (like BoingBoing) and when I finally got a PS2 (yes, I live in the dark ages), this was the first game I had to try on it. The concept is wacky, which I'm not sure is because the game is wacky or if there's some kind of cultural disconnect between Japan and the U.S., but I have to give the game points for uniqueness. Seems that the King of the Universe did a little too much partying and has scattered things to multiple corners of the universe and as his son, your goal is to go around and gather those things up by rolling around a big ball to which things stick if they are smaller (by some proportion) than the ball itself. As things stick, the ball grows, and you can pick up more things. You have a time limit, so it's a bit of a rush rush to move the ball around gather things up.
As a returning gamer, the "shock" on the PS2 controller (say, when you run into walls) was an interesting twist, but for the most part, after the novelty wore off, I found the game less intriguing and more annoying, as the only thing that really changes between levels is the kinds of things you get to pick up (you start with small things like buttons, and proceed up to buildings, at which point I had had enough). Again, I give it points for not being just another shoot-'em-up, but I think I needed something more than just new graphics (say, maybe, an actual story, which this tries to add, but whimsical can only get you so far) to propel me along.

Summary: Wow
Comment: Yeah, it's Katamari Damacy. What can be more fun than rolling up actual items you see every day into a huge ball with no other goal than to be able to roll up larger objects? I played this game a couple years back and just had to have it. It never gets old. The game play is completely different and innovative, the storyline is fresh, and the king's twisted, humorous sense of fashion is absolutely hilarious.

Summary: Quirky Fun
Comment: Katamari provides quirky fun in a short time.
If you just want to play around for a bit, but not get involved in some long game, Katamari is perfect. You can cause destruction by rolling around and picking things up. It sort of provides a release as you roll your ball about.
The quirkness of the game adds to its charm. The music is fun and fits perfectly.
A great game for some quick fun.

Summary: Fun and addictive
Comment: Fun game. We like the game "We Love Katamari" better than this one, but this one is still fun.

Summary: fun random game
Comment: Katamari Damacy is a fun, quirky, and random game. in this game you use a ball to roll up things smaller than you and when you get enouph you get bigger. while doing this you are accompanied by funny japanese music. This game is a must buy for anyone.
