No love for MMK? D:; Not one level?

I was a bit disappointed by the lack of MMK in KF. It's like they got the remix of Katamari on the Funk, but that's it. No levels from it at all. It's like they just didn't love it. D:

Was there a reason for this or something? It seems odd, the way they seemed to avoid MMK entirely, but they call it Katamari Tribute. There's not that much Katamari Damacy in it either. >_<

I'd imagine it to be very difficult to convert levels and objects from a very small screen to 1080p. You'd have to rework the controls as well... it would would be easier on the devs and artists to just make new levels.

way too silly :S

I agree with Iramatak ... I think it would have taken a lot of extra work to prepare MMK levels for KF. For one thing, MMK levels reach a certain size then teleport to another area; I'm not sure they'd want that in KF.

Then again, I imagine the KD levels took a lot of work too, considering how much the control has changed since then. Remember how you'd get horribly stuck in KD's Make a Star 4 if you climbed up on the table when you were already over a meter tall?

But I also wish very much that some MMK levels had made it :crybaby Royal Monument stage and the Gorilla one are among my all-time favorite katamari levels.

if they included mmk, that would have been awesome. but yeah, probably would have been hard to convert from psp to ps3. but i dunno.

The conversion process probably would've just been too difficult. Still, it would've been nice, and maybe there'd be less of a feeling that they hadn't worked very hard on Forever if they'd brought even a few favorites over.

I didn't think of that until about 5 minutes after I posted this. >_>'

But that's a very good point. I mostly just wanted to see some levels from Volcano Island though, the size levels weren't very... creative. >_>' It'd also be hard to not incorporate the way the time/season changed when you got bigger n' stuff. ._.

Yeah, they could have put in the crane and chameleon stages, sadly, we only get the Katamari on the Funk and Katamari Resort remixes.
