    This is by far the worst game of all time. Anyone who likes to play this game needs to get a life and grow up, unless your a kid and then I can see that you would like this. It has the worst music of anything I have ever heard and the characters are so freaking retarded they make me want to hurt someone. If I could I would flat out slap the creator in the face.

    This game is the WORST experience of my LIFE. How can people rate this so frikin' high? You take a ball, role stuff up for like, 10 hours worth of levels, a time limit like superman 64, which, compared to this, superman 64 is like a masterpiece, a incredibly weird and not understandable storyline with nothing deep to it, a super bad soundtrack that will drive you crazy, extremely uglyThis game is the WORST experience of my LIFE. How can people rate this so frikin' high? You take a ball, role stuff up for like, 10 hours worth of levels, a time limit like superman 64, which, compared to this, superman 64 is like a masterpiece, a incredibly weird and not understandable storyline with nothing deep to it, a super bad soundtrack that will drive you crazy, extremely ugly characters, dumb levels, low content, the list goes on. Verdict is the worst game ever, worst than Ride to Hell and Superman 64 combined, 0/10 would rate it lower.… Expand

    Go buy this friggin' game. Now. Reward Namco for having the balls to put out something this... well, Japanese. For $20, you're getting one hell of a party game.

    The game has an amazing energy and great joy. Its unfettered creativity is astounding, and this is where Katamari truly excels. [Nov 2004, p.110]

    As a total package, Katamari Damacy is one of the most original, imaginative, and purely entertaining games to come along in years.
