I love Katamari

I was recently introduced to this game, or at least a follow-up game called 'We love Katamari'. I am now immensely hooked. If you haven't played it before I recommend that you try to get hold of it soon.


The ga
me's plot concerns a diminutive prince on a mission to rebuild the stars, constellations and moon, which his father, the King of All Cosmos, has accidentally destroyed. This is achieved by rolling a magical, highly adhesive ball called a katamari around various locations, collecting increasingly larger objects, ranging from thumbtacks to schoolchildren to mountains, until the ball has grown large enough to become a star.

'We love Katamari' contains various challenges for Prince and friends to attempt - one of which involves eventually rolling up entire islands. It's simple controls (using only the analogue joysticks on the PS2 controller) make it very easy to play for anyone - highly recommended to all.

Visit the Official Namco Katamari site here.
For fans of the game there's also an awesome wallpaper here.
