Katamari for PS2: roll over stuff and get big


I just downloaded the trailer for the PS2 game Katamari Damacy and now I want to buy a PS2, just to play it. Damn, this is demented: in Katamari, you're a rolling ball of detritus, careening through a Japanese town. As you roll over things (cars, picnic tables, people), they adhere to you, making you bigger, more ungainly, and capable of picking up bigger things. Eventually, you're meant to snowball your way up to truly stupendous articles -- all rendered in retro-cool pixel-art. Man, that's good squishee.
