we don't use netflix, but we do have gamefly. our copy of katamari damacy came in the mail last night.

holy god, it is just as addictive as i thought it would be.

you are a cartoon prince! you roll a ball and pick up things until it gets bigger and then turns into a star! there are absurd cube-human cartoons! you start with thumbtacks and assorted little things and then eventually you get to the size where you can pick up cows and fences and cars! there's no real way to describe it. it is so cute and wacky that it made me happy, and more than a little entranced. this is the best $20 you can spend, if you have a ps2.

it is excellent! awesome & just as simple as netflix. we have the plan with 2 games out at a time, it has worked really well.

oh word! among the halo 2's, the gta: sa's, the metroid prime 2's, the pikmin's, etc. etc., katamari damacy is STILL my favorite game of 2004.

the soundtrack is just as phenomenal.

i LOVE the soundtrack. some reviews i read said they wouldn't mention what it was, so it would be a pleasant surprise. and so it was.

ever since its release in japan i had been eagerly waiting its arrival here - just to be sure, i ordered it from all the gaming stores in the area. i ended up giving my extras as holiday presents and everyone has loved it! ABSOLUTE best 20 dollars spent towards gaming. what's even more exciting is that KD2 is in the works!

if you're interested i could post the soundtrack mp3's i have. it's not the official one (katamari fortissimo damashii), but they were pulled from the game, and sound pretty good.
