Beautiful Katamari details roll in

Xboxic has cooperated with OXM again to give the online community an early preview of upcoming material. The idea of the game hasn't changed too much from previous installments in the series: it revolves around a Prince and his Katamari, a rolling clump of objects. Starting out small, the idea is to roll over lots of different objects in the environment to pick them up and grow the ever more colorful ball. Each stage has its own bizarro objective, such as achieving a specific size for the katamari, or collecting a set amount of specific objects onto the ball.

Not only would it have been great if Max Payne, Freedom Fighters, Nier, Blur and Lollipop Chainsaw got to become backwards compatible, it also would be great if those games got to have more games come out in their franchises.

When You Really Think About it, Katamari is Probably the Most Disturbing Game You'll Ever Play

It maybe disturbing but it's fun as hell and why the Ps4 doesn't have one yet or a Noby Noby Boy 2 is beyond me.

eddieistheillest2745d ago

Creator went to make a different game but I want one sooo bad.

Venoxn4g2744d ago

I want a proper katamari game for ps4 please

kimblejay2741d ago

Me too! Since writing this article I've had Katamari cravings so bad. Looks like I'll have to settle with Touch My Katamari on Vita for now. I'd even be happy with Backwards Compatibility for Beautiful Katamari on Xbox!

Venoxn4g2741d ago

Katamari forever on ps3 is good too.. psp one as well.. ps2 both games are awesome too
