Wow, Kazuhito Udetsu still manages to blow my mind. How does he come up with this stuff? And how much is it?
From what we’ve seen of Katamari Forever, it’s looking good! But from what we’ve heard, it’s also sounding good, courtesy of its remixed soundtrack.
Namco Bandai’s heading back to the Katamari mines this year for the PlayStation 3-only release of Katamari Forever—perhaps more aptly named Katamari Damacy Tribute in Japan. That “tribute” aspect is highlighted in its remixed, 8-bit influenced soundtrack.
I totally forgot Katamari Forever was going to be at E3, but when I trundled up to Namco’s booth and saw it languishing unattended, I was glad I found myself with half an hour to kill.
This is the year of “all things weird and wonderful” for Namco Bandai, according to Todd Thorson, Director of Marketing and Public Relations – and Katamari Forever on the PlayStation 3 proves it.
