Two completely different types of games. Tons of songs, and being able to actually control the music and play it helps.

So? It's not like you're on a rail on Katamari. Lots of things can be changed in every game.
 
Katamari is a game to be experienced before anyone can properly judge it according to their tastes. I personally love it, but I know few people who have played it and still didn't like it. Just try it and see what all the hype is about if you can.
 
I really liked Katamari.....it had a fun twist to the barely any plot game but it is SO MUCH FUN! :)

Wow, sounds like a huge loss for the PS3!

It actually is a really simple, but addicting game and, while it was never gonna convince a couple million people to buy a PS3, it still isn't good news for the PS3, none the less.
 
Well, Katamari was a decent sized hit. Like cherry said, it wasn't a system seller but it is a game that people might pick up if they had a PS3.

Katamari Damacy won the gold prize at the 2004 Japanese Industrial Design Promotion Awards, the first time a video game has won this award.[8] It also won the award for "Excellence in Game Design" at the 2005 Game Developers Choice Awards, and G4techTV awarded Katamari Damacy its "Best Innovation" prize in its G-Phoria of that year.

Seems like it. :/
 
It was budget priced, too, which helped. Katamari Damacy came out at $20 and the sequel, We Love Katamari, was $30. But they made significant improvements that justified the extra $10.

I really hope they don't slap a $60 price tag on the 360 version just because it's on a next-gen console. There's no way it's worth paying that much for. It should be budget priced on the 360 because of the type of game that it is. I'd say $30 max. Anything more than that is a rip.

they are both over $30 used, each, nowadays.
 
I know, which is crazy. It's because they are so hard to find.

I have both. I kind of wonder how much I could get for them on eBay. :D

That's good because the original game wasn't much more than that. :lol

Then what's the point in it winning an award for basically providing a couple of hours enjoyment? Whoever awarded it isn't at all credible and I stand by my statement that it's not really a huge a loss for Sony. Harsh but true.

Well, its sort of you get what you pay for. It was a budget game so it wasn't that long. For $20, it wasn't a bad buy and a game that was fun while it lasted.
 
that SUcks! the KAtamari games are awesome! And it would be a great addition to the PS3 library. well i guess i do have to buy a 360 now.
