This is almost a hobby, not a video game ... May 20, 2008 As in the previous game, the King of All Cosmos has destroyed the stars in the sky, and it is up to the Prince to go to Earth and roll up objects into a "katamari" -- a kind of sticky ball that grows as you attach things to it -- so that new stars can be built.
Unlike its predecessor, We Love Katamari has relatively few "standard" stages. Instead, most of the stages give you some kind of specific challenge -- rolling with a burning katamari without letting its fire go out, rolling entirely underwater, getting as large as you can with a finite number of objects, and so forth.
As a result it is rather harder.
Nevertheless, if you've played and enjoyed the first game and want more challenges, this is the way to go. Fun new stages (and way more of them), a much larger World stage, and lots of weird and freaky challenges to try.
Roll your heart out as fast as you can! April 8, 2008 About the seller - I would definitely recommend & buy from again!
On to the product - Katamari seems like a very fun game. Just roll up as much as you can in the time alloted. Unfortunately, after you pass the first two stages, you really need to have absolutely mastered the fast roll technique or you can't pass the other levels. I actually went and bought a brand new controller with tighter analog controls - and it did help a little bit, but not enough. Load times are decent. You see the King's head floating and mumbling something. A different something all the time! ^_^
This is a cute game. A good way to spend a rainy afternoon!
We ALL Love Katamari April 7, 2008 "We Love Katamari" is the first sequel to the smash-hit game, "Katamari Damacy". The game is much like "Damacy", in that the aim of the game is to roll things up with your Katamari. However, the format is a bit different, in that, instead of rolling things up entirely for the King of All Cosmos, you are rolling things up for your "fans". The story is also about the life and childhood of the King of All Cosmos, as opposed to a random family.
The game has much of the same charm and overall weirdness of "Damacy". Its music selection is much broader; however, it seems that this is a somewhat harder game than the original, so be prepared.
Fun Game April 5, 2008 You might not like cleaning up your room, your house in real life. Well, you get your chance in this fantasy world, whatever you see can be picked up by this magical ball you roll. It sorts of tell you "size matters" compare to everything in our life. It is a fun game.
WAY OVERRATED! March 20, 2008 0 out of 6 found this review helpful
I'm lost as to why so many people LOVE Katamari!? This is a horrible game for anyone over the age of 3. I played this game for a total of 15 min. and turned it off. I wish I could have those 15 min. of my life back. After 1 min. I was shocked it stunk so bad, considering all of the good reviews, but then I decided to give it 14 more min. just to see if it got any better. Well it didn't. Rolling a ball around of junk and collecting more junk to add to the ever growing ball is plain idiotic and boring to me. I still can't believe how boring and stupid this game was, as well as how incredibly bizarre it was! You roll up various things in a ball, while listening to the horrible japanese techno playing in the background.
I've played thousands of games in my 24 years of life, and "We Love (I Hate) Katamari" is in my bottom 5. In conclusion, I think most of the reviewers must have been on drugs while playing because "We Love Katamari" is garbage or it should only be used as a paper weight or used to freak out some old folks!
Fun= -5 stars (if I could give it negative stars), Overall= 2, only because the graphics weren't terrible, they were just bad, and I do give the game credit, somewhat, for being original.
