Clump Spirit fans rejoice! Katamari is back and better then ever. The graphics are amazing, the load times are almost non-existent, and the weirdness is weirder than ever.
Just like every other Katamari game, you will be rolling a sticky ball around and picking up objects. Katamari forever adds the ability to jump and two pickups. I have been a Katamari fan for a long time and loved this iteration more than the ones I have played on the PS2, PSP, and iPhone.
The controls are tight, the dialogue is funny, and gameplay is addictive. That being said, there are a few complaints. There's a lot of talking. Most of if can be skipped with a simple press of the Star button, but I still thought it was a little irritating. Also, I still felt no particular urge to change my avatar to one of the cousins or to outfit my character with the gifts I collected. I really only collected them at all because I wanted the trophy for it. Both pretty minor complaints, but I found both annoying in their own ways.
It should also be addressed that the maps in this game are all maps from previous games. This may bother the more dedicated fans, but I thought it felt nostalgic. That's just something that will depend on who's playing.
Ultimately I think this was by far my favorite Katamari game yet and I recommend it to anyone and everyone.
