Well pin me to the ground and invade my most intimate privacy with a claw hammer if this isn’t the most exciting gaming news to hit me (albeit slightly after the fact) since earlier today. Namco have brought the Katamari franchise to the iPhone/iPod Touch so that we, their humble servants, can make utter fools of ourselves waving our electric telephones around in the air while on public transport. ‘I Love Katamari’ doesn’t bring anything new to the Katamari series (other than perhaps the novelty of accelerometer-based gameplay) but faithfully executes its trademark gyratory fun which is all it really needs to do, all things considered. Unfortunately there’s a bit of a slowdown when your Katamari increases in size and the game attempts a rather overambitious motion blur effect, but other than that it’s well worth the modest £4.99 asking price. If nothing else it’ll stop you bothering farmyard animals of an evening, you vile devil you.
It looks like you just have to build a ball of trash and roll it around. I’m doing that in real life as I’m a quarter dung beetle.
Nobody minds the rolling around. It’s that other thing you do that worries me. DIRTY.
