This PSP followup to 2004's most original title looks just like its PS2 counterpart -- that is, full 3D, lots of objects to pick up, a similar looking prince as the main character, a similar screen layout and even the same visual style. One day, the island of Paradise Commonwealth Island, where many different kinds of animals live together in peace, is struck with a giant tsunami and is left a mess. A single turtle, who'd been separated from the island due to the tsunami, washes ashore on the nearby Prince Island and speaks of his misery to the Prince. This Prince is the very prince that has caused much havoc in previous Katamari games. Katamari Damacy PSP features one big change from previous titles: dynamic levels. The levels change based on the time and season. Levels also feature changing paths which make the game different each time you play.
I would expect navagation to use something like "up and down direction pad along with Triangle and X"... Should be just fine to control things like that.
This game is about rolling a katamari ball, which works like a velcro ball, and sticks a lot of cute things on it. Your little character, the price, rolls up all the little lovely items in the world to build one HUGE katamari. You have to get it to the size the king (pictured in the screenshots) wants. Very yellow submarine-ish.
by the way, listen to what the y designer of this game says now:
From kotaku:
Superhot designer and Katamari creator Keita Takahashi spoke at Game Developer’s Conference in London recently. He talked about next-gen consoles and, more interestingly, why he doesn’t play many video games anymore.
“You don’t need games to have fun,” Takahashi says. “Possibly you don’t need games at all.” Someone asks why he doesn’t play many games anymore. He answers simply: “Because there are no fun ones.”
Geez, I like Katamari and all, but doesn’t it sound like the monster success of Katamari has soured this dude somewhat?
