    There are two new elements to the gameplay in Katamari Forever. For one, the prince can now leap mightily into the air, making it easier to climb ledges or get atop objects. This prince hop can be done by quickly shaking the controller, which isn't always responsive, or, thankfully, by simply pressing R2. Also, you'll now find hearts scattered about the levels that, when rolled up, temporarily make your katamari a vacuum, sucking in nearby items. Read more

    • Rolling katamaris is still loads of fun, Looks much better than any previous game in the series, Wickedly catchy soundtrack, The king and the roboking are funny and me...
    • Almost entirely made up of recycled content, Same limited multiplayer options as previous games, with no online play, Camera sometimes loses sight of you.

But, here we are with another Katamari , now back on a Sony console with the PlayStation 3, intended as a tribute for the series as a whole. Read more
