So here i sit with my laptop on my lap on front of the loving room tv. The History channel is on with Titanic Mystery Solved in the background. I was actually thinking of updating this blog with one of my many adventures in my so-called-happening life, but all i can think about is rolling a katamari.

Last Saturday, i brought the xbox home with me and i got reacquainted with this gamed called Beautiful Katamari.

It’s part of the Katamari series of games following the initial Katamari Damacy. The concept of the game is pretty much the same through each series:

The game’s plot concerns a diminutive prince on a mission to rebuild the stars, constellations, and Moon, which were accidentally destroyed by his father, the King of All Cosmos. This is achieved by rolling a magical, highly adhesive ball called a katamari around various locations, collecting increasingly larger objects, ranging from thumbtacks to people to mountains, until the ball has grown great enough to become a star.

I guess it’s obvious by now that this game is a product of the Japanese. Only the Japanese can think of such bizarre things.

I discovered this game years ago. Though i’m not sure how, i remember discovering it with Jason. Everything in this game is just so happy-looking. From the characters to the soundtrack. I guess it was very us.

Hoongmao: Is this supposed to be.. therapeutic?

Why, yes. Nothing is quite therapeutic (and fun) like rolling things up into one big ball of junk :D
