It's almost blasphemy for me to say I don't like a katamari game seeing as how i run this joint but I can't help shake the feeling that this could have been great if they just did new stuff.

People often complain that each version of katamari didn't add anything new. But if they had actually done all new stuff with the new modes, it might have faired better.

I played some of these levels over 4 years ago...it's not even like they were changed or anything to make this feel new. They're identical to what they were, give or take an item placement here or there.

Three new levels out of 30+ is just wrong and screams of "let's cash cow this and make it just because we can and people will buy it regardless." Hell I bought it twice. :rolleyes
I agree, Vix. I was excited to see what other levels they were going to include, and they just... weren't there after the first 3. I still enjoy playing, but not as much as the others. (Never got to play BK, so I can't compare there).

Not to get too off topic, but I just want to say FLOWER was amazing.
I agree, Flower is beautiful!

I would almost prefer the CD because of limited HD space, but I couldn't find it on Amazon. Lots of gear covered with flowers though :lol Anyway, I'll keep looking. Thanks, vix!

there is no disc version of it. 97% of the stuff in the psn store is HD based though matt it's worth noting that you can upgrade your HD to a larger one at any point you want (though i have no idea about the slim honestly cause I haven't looked into it) but the fatty's can be upgraded. most say 300-320 gb is the max. as long as you have an external drive to do a back up, you would be good to go.

I used to like this game. Then I found out about the missing Online Multiplayer. I mean... WTF?!? It's one thing to not bother with inserting any new content, but actually REMOVING functionality that was ALREADY THERE? They need to cut back on the magic mushrooms...

Okay, so not a lot of people played it online in Beautiful Katamari, but they left in the Versus and Co-Op features! WITHOUT making it possible to play it with friends who don't happen to be sitting next to you! :frusty

I can't tell you how frustrating it is, missing ONLY the 'Multiplayer' trophy for 100% completion and Platinum, having a friend who just got the game, being all set up and ready for a hillarious co-op roll... and then discovering that, nope, not possible, not gonna happen, because THOSE RETARDS somehow decided it was a good idea to COMPLETELY REMOVE an already FULLY FUNCTIONAL part of the game! :mad
