Only the Japanese...

Only the Japanese could invent a game as strange as this. The intro is almost the best part of the game and should not be missed. It has dancing Panda Bears and rainbows, along with cows and other creatures. The game is deceptively simple. All you do is roll a sticky ball around and collect objects that are smaller than your ball. Eventually, you are able to pick up people, cars and skyscrapers. It doesn't sound like much, but once you start playing, it's hard to stop. I would definately recommend this game for people of all ages.

Crazy, Crazy, Crazy Fun

For it's value, this game provides an incredible amount of bizarre, fun-filled entertainment.
It's a completely unique and hugely fun experience, not just for younger gamers, but for more experienced ones as well. Anyone who enjoys the current crop of Wii games will love Katamari Damacy.
It certainly isn't the deepest game ever and wears thin a bit sooner than others, but it is certainly worth the price.
Highly recommended.

Do do do do do do duh do do. Katamari Damacy-y-y-y-y!!!!

First off, I can't get the soundtrack out of my head! The music in this game is simply stunning. At least simply stunningly quirky. And that pretty much describes the entire game.

This is one of those rare games that simply gets everything right, and it is difficult to describe how great it really is. Describing the specifics of the game misses the point of how incredibly fun it is. So simple, yet so amazingly addictive. You just have to play it for yourself.

The graphics and animation are rudimentary, but done well, and somehow add to the charm of the game. Who knows if the physics are accurate, but they certainly *feel* right considering the scope of things. You'll just have to play through the last level to see what I am talking about here.

Like Shadow of the Colossus, there is really no precedent for this game. And while Shadow strikes awe in the first minute of the game and keeps hitting you until the end, Katamari D starts small (*very* small) and builds through the entire game to a truly global scope.

Just finishing the game is quite easy if you don't mind accepting the bare minimums and facing the scorn of the ridiculous King of the Cosmos. But the scope of the game is much more open than that. You can always try to add a few more millimeters (or meters) onto your previous best Katamari, or roll up bigger and bigger cows.

If you are like me and would rather play Ratchet and Clank than the latest boring yearly update to Madden, you should try this.

For a select few...

For those who would find interesting a game in which you are charged with the responsibility of recreating the stars by rolling up everything you can find on Earth into one big ball, there is none better than Katamari Damacy. The vast majority of the western video game audience probably think this is absurd, and make no mistake, everything about it is, but it's immensely entertaining, and fills a niche somewhere in the gaming culture. The choice of graphic style gives the entire world a fresh and intriguing appearance, and the depth of interaction with the world is amazing (you can pick up everything at one point or another, and the changing scale of the katamari is always entertaining). The King of All Cosmos has incredible monologues, and the music is actually worth purchasing or downloading independent of the game, its so good. On top of all this, there's a fine layer of social philosophy, with lyrics in songs like "I want to roll you up into my life," "let's clump up together," "we're a single star in the sky." Ultimately, as you travel from country to country rolling up people, cars, houses, and everything else, you'll see how indiscriminately the katamari collects its objects; there's no prejudice in this wonderful world.
So, if any of this sounds appealing, go ahead and buy the game. It's fairly cheap, you'll be entertained for hours, it's not frustratingly difficult, and you'll never look at our world the same way again. However, be warned that this genre appeals to very few people, and it could very well distort your perception of reality to the extent that you can't function in it anyone.
Lastly, if anyone harrasses you for your love of Katamari Damacy, just think about rolling them up in one big ball, and sending it to some distant corner of space.

Addictive

When I purchased this game I was addicted to it. There is just something really fun about rolling a ball and trying to make it bigger. I would highly recommend this game.
