A thread for all things Katamari loving.

It has been about two years since we last got our dose of ball rollin' action. However, seems like E3 might be bringing us http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-03-28-what-is-katamari-amore more!

What does Katamari need to survive? For me, if they can nail down a Kinect support to the rolling, I'm in.

Also this thread is for Katamari Coslovin pics. Or anything else odd and Japanese.

THREAD TITLE +1

A greater variety of scenarios, whilst not changing a single other god damned thing, would keep me happy.

Yup, that'd do.

We Love Katamari was a fantastic game, one of the best on PS2. I used to drive work colleagues mad by constantly humming the theme song.

Beautiful Katamari, however, left me a little bored. Don't get me wrong, it's a decent enough game but I ended up trading it in before I'd finished it.

I worry that the concept will become less appealing with each sequel, part of it's brilliance was it's freshness and originality.

The problem is that the mechanics are what defines a Katamari game. I wonder if it would be possible to shift it into other genres, like the Beautiful Katamari end credtis sequence? I like the idea of a racing game in which the faster opponent is able to roll over the slower one.

I want a proper online multiplayer game. Basically I want to roll up Reg, then the world.

I really loved We Love Katamari, and the PSP version was a really nice effort, I still think the 360 version was a friggin disgrace though? Did you play that version? Only being allows to roll up certain items or game over, totally broke it for me.

We can't quote people yet? Anyway:

This, I do like the Katamari Forever game on the ps3, RoboKing is good, but only roll up hot stuff was horrible. One cold item and it was game over. I did like the Bear/Cow level though.

You have to be crazy to like Katamari. Especially Forever, which was terribly bad.

Is it just me that can see a Katamari game for Wii U rolling (ho ho) over the horizon?

Katamari on 360 wasn't all that bad, I enjoyed it, perhaps not as much as previous iterations but me and the missus still played through the whole game.

That's awesome. Wasn't working at first but then realised for reason it wasn't copying 'javascript:' so had to type it by hand.
A link for those to scared to try that explains it
