yeah, I knew this. I'm a huge Katamari fan. Wish Beautiful Katamari would get the reroll treatment next so we could finally release it from its 360 DLC hell.

I found out about the game from the google search experience for "katamari" and I was so confused as I looked up and saw that figure in the sky, lacking an understanding of the controls

I think in the second one the tutorial is taking place on top of his head inside his crown, I know that's in ONE of the games, just can't recall which one exactly.

Beautiful Katamari!

arghonn.bsky.social•109 days ago

Thanks for confirming that I'm not crazy. Never finished that one, I should go back at some point, but man, those 7th gen load times make it a hard pill to swallow. And I'm not sure my 360 even works anymore. My kingdom for PC ports of every Katamari game.

arghonn.bsky.social•109 days ago

Wait, it's Katamari Forever that I never finished. Beautiful Katamari is probably tied with We Love Katamari for my most played game in the series.

Unfortunately Beautiful Katamari was one of those games where they put the whole game on the disk, and then charged you extra to unlock two-thirds of it as DLC.

arghonn.bsky.social•108 days ago

The stories that came out from Capcom USA around that time where they told the japanese office that having costume dlc that you have to buy on the discs would get mined out day one and piss people off, and the japanese office's response was "no they won't, that's illegal, they wouldn't do that!"

I believe Katamari Reroll is an HD remake of the original PS2 game, so at least that much is available

arghonn.bsky.social•109 days ago

I've got the PC remakes of the first 2, and they're fantastic, but every other game in the series is still trapped on their respective original consoles. I think there's only four other console releases for the series, the 360 and PS3 releases, and the sony handheld ones, which are aggressively ok.
