The gameplay conceit behind Katamari Damacy is fairly unique, but the game launches off into strange, uncharted territory when it comes to the presentation. The game has a real cubist look going.

Contents.Story The and the Royal Family decide to take some time off from their celestial construction and travel to Earth for a well-earned (for the Prince at least) tropical summer vacation on their own sunny island. Unfortunately, the King's over-exuberance creates a that strikes and devastates nearby Paradise Commonwealth Island. One of the residents, a, washes ashore next to the Royal Family and tells them his tale. The King then decides to make new islands for the animals of the Commonwealth with several katamari. Similar to the previous Katamari titles, the King sends the Prince to the Sunflower Continent, which is full of the paraphernalia used to create new landmasses.Gameplay. Screenshot from the game.Gameplay is much like that of the previous Katamari titles. Controls differ from those of the games given that the PSP lacks the dual analog sticks.

The player uses the and the four face buttons to imitate the analog controls. In the North American release, there is the ability to use the thumb-nub instead of the D-pad; the original Japanese version only uses the thumb-nub to move the camera. The L and R buttons are used for tight turns.Location The Sunflower Continent is the main level in the game. For variety, the time of day and season constantly change during different missions. There are five stages of the game, rising up to the World where the katamari can reach over 4000 m.Multiplayer Each player has his or her own island, which they name. A maximum of three of the player's friends can visit the island, via. The visitor can challenge the player in a contest of rolling the most valuables, like the Saving Red Panda stage in.Soundtrack The soundtrack, is made up of featured tunes from the previous Katamari titles, such as the song Katamari on the Rocks, and a few original compositions, such as Katamari on the Funk.Reception ReceptionAggregate scoresAggregatorScore76.31%75/100Review scoresPublicationScore7/106.5/106/1033/408/108/107.4/10GameZone8.1/107.6/10B+Me & My Katamari was met with positive reception upon release.

If that's the real case. Then what the heck? But then i saw 'Bandai Namco'. So that's why it felt kinda sluggish. What a ♥♥♥♥ing joke. The PS2 version runs at 60 FPS.

Really, really hope this ♥♥♥♥ gets fixed, but I highly doubt it will. This came as total surprise. But i definitely cannot play with weird variable framerates on different things in a game. For example when the physics/animations run at 30 fps, while npc's and the traversal movements of the characters are at 60, it feels odd and distracts too heavily.
