Everybody Loves Katamari Damacy

While brief, the storyline behind Minna Daisuki Katamari Damacy is even odder than that of the original Katamari Damacy. One day, the Prince of All Cosmos receives a request from a fan. The objective of the game is to have the Prince of All Cosmos answer the fan's request, which will make more fans (stages) appear until the whole game is mobbed with fans.

Awesome story. It makes sense, too. Since the only reason to make a second game, story-wise - was because it has such an awesome cult following in real-life.

, such as making the ball as large as possible with a limited number of objects,

That's new.

And you can wear more than one present at once! SWEEEET!

As long as it's still priced at $20, will be quite awesome indeed.

Any word yet on a PAL release of the original?

Feh, even if they sell it for 50 dollars (or more) I'd still buy it. Cause its Katamari fuckin' Damacy. And everybody loves Katamari Damacy.

More new screenshots can be found here: http://namco-ch.net/katamari_damacy_ps2/stage/index.php

I hope the soundtrack to this game is just as good or even better than the first one. And...

It looks like the graphics engine has been subtly improved. I notice that it's handling more objects with more detail to each object.

Damn, the theme song (Katamari on the Rocks) has been stuck in my head for almost a week.

Yeah, I saw that too, I just didn't bother to post because they're so goddamn tiny.
