Seriously though, this game is innovative and fun. An insight into the what-the-crap the Japanese have been doing without an army... Wow. No really, this game is as fun as it is crazy, with things as crazy as little block children "feeling the cosmos" to an Ultraman wannabe getting rolled up in a giant sticky ball of stuff, this game has it all. Although the concept of the game seems simple at first, it can get challenging, but just enough that it makes you want to keep playing without simply taping the analog sticks forward and leaning back with a cool drink. The physics of the game are nicely executed as picking up a pencil, while you're still the size of a thumbtack is sure to leave you feeling like a guy on stilts who just got one of them stolen by a kleptomanic little figure with a green suit and a head that looks like someone shoved a giant rectangular block through his ear, if he had any. In all honesty, Katamari Damacy may seem geared toward younger audiences, but in truth it is not. The only people who wouldn't appreciate this game are those with a sense of humor as existent as Jack Thompson's actual case against video games, or who don't have enough gaming ability to make a giant sticky ball of doom (as my associates and I have dubbed it) bigger than two meters in five minutes (with a one meter head start!) and whose ineptitude at the English language turn this sentence: "This game is a sad travesty of fun and should not be played due the deabilitating effect it would have on it's audience." into this one: "GeZ! Tis gmae is So stoppid! I h8ted it so mch taht it suckd!@ (Jeez, this game is so stupid! I hated it so much that it sucked! (random @ sign due to inability to type correctly without pressing other keys due to lack of middle-school education). So, this game rocks, it is innovative and fun and should at least be tried before sent back to Best Buy. So, pick that controller up, roll that ball, and soon enough you'll be singing along with the duck heads just like the prince. *Cue Hideous Screams As People Get Enveloped By The G.S.B.O.D.*

P.S. (I don't mind if you want to disagree with me, just please do it in a civilized manner, for the sake of humanity.Thanks :9)
Katamari Damacy is one of those rare gems that make absolutely no sense and surround the player in absurdity, yet provide for hours upon hours of bliss. It may pull you in with its dancing panda bears, colorful mushrooms... Read Full Review
From the opening sequence, it’s clear that Katamari Damacy is something unique and wholly original. The game’s premise is as simple and bizarre as its gameplay, as the King of All Cosmos tasks his young son, the Prince... Read Full Review
