Just RPG
The title, although a bit short in the level variety, certainly is worth its price in other content, including one of the best senses of humor to be found in a game.

Me and My Katamari disappointed me just a wee little bit with it’s limited level variety and frequent mid-level load times, and because of these faults the game isn’t as great as it could’ve and should’ve been.

That it’s the same game as before – albeit with new levels – isn’t that important; that you can take it with you wherever you go and enjoy it at virtually any time is. [JPN Import; Mar 2006, p.108]

Weird and funny. It suffers from clunky controls and PSP's small screen. The special missions are a nice addition, but overall thte game is too repetitive. [Aug 2006, p.53]

If you’re willing to relearn how to roll a Katamari and put up with some thumb strain Me and My Katamari brings everything you love about the series on the PSP. [JPN Import]

The lack of variety in the levels was a major factor. But even more so was the constant loading and unnatural, abrupt transitions.

When peopleThis is my first exposure to Katamari after hearing about it so much. I love it!!! It is so original and whimsical, and fun!!! When people throw around the criticism that it is repetitive, they are themselves reacting in a repetitive and conventional fashion. It's a game, not life (which can be multifaceted) All games happen to be repetitive in some way or another. If it happens to be a repetition one likes then more often than not, the reviewer doesn't mention the crirticism of repetition. The review can only be as competent as the human being doing the reviewing. They can't all be Da Vincis and Einsteins!!! Trust me. Read my 2008 review of Speed Racer, the movie.… Expand

A pretty darned good conversion of the console game. The controls take a while to get used to, but it's a really fun game.
