What is this, I don't even...
This week, Julian takes you on a strange trip, highlighting some of the most bizarre games to ever grace home consoles. These games often break with conventions and defy description, and they have little in common apart from making people scratch their heads. And that's what makes them great. So buckle up, Dorothy, because Kansas is going bye-bye!
A portable Katamari game that controls great, but could desperately use some more variety.
The last time the Katamari series came to a handheld console, it was a lesson in frustration to say the least. Without two joysticks to properly control the Katamari, things quickly fell apart; an unfortunate truth for fans dying to roll on the go. Well, six years and a brand new handheld system later, Katamari fans have finally gotten what they’ve been waiting so long for: a good looking Katamari experience loaded with all of the integral character and humor the series is known for, that – most importantly – controls like a dream. Unfortunately, its lack of variety and content cast a dark shadow over what could have been the ultimate handheld Katamari game.
Available now for the PlayStation Vita.
