This game is just OK.
I have not played any of the Katamari games before, but thought they always looked kind of neat. Looks are deceiving.
The game has a pretty steep learning curve, and poor controls. For some reason you need to use both of the sticks to control the ball. IMO one stick would have lead to better control. Turning is hard, in fact towards the end I just went with the flow and rolled over all in my path. The camera does not make this any easier.
The levels are recycled. In fact I think there may only be three of them. Its gets old running over the same things over and over again. To make the game hard, there are time limits on the stages.
I did not try multiplayer, as I could not find a match for 10 mins.
Achievement points are medium difficulty. Expect to get 350-450 before you are sick of the game. Also, to get the full 1,000 you need the DLC, which also nets another 250 points. I really hope this is not going to be a trend. Selling us an incomplete game (new $49), the you need to spend another $10 to get all the content.
Just rent it. Play for 4-6 hrs and send it back.
