OK, NOW I cant get juiced about a PlayStation2 game that will soon hit the shelves… Katamari Damacy 2.

If your not farmiliar with this game series, you should learn up! Basically your dad the ruler of the universe blows up all the stars in the cosmos by mistake, you now have to go to all these 3D world environments and collect objects to re-assemble the stars and constellations. Your character is a little guy rolling around an ultramagnetized ball that collects objects. Your goal for each rolling collection mission is to reach a certain diameter of measurement. The more objects you roll over the more cling to you, the bigger the items you can collect, and so on. The soundtrack and animation are some of the best I have seen. Its a cross between the Beatles Yellow Submarine movie and a Monty Python Animated sketch (Terry Gilliam eat your heart out!). Its the most fun I have had playing a game on the PS2.

You can also download a wide assortment of desktops and such here at the official Katamari Damacy engrish translated site KatamariDamacy.jp.
