Katamari Forever rolls into stores with one final puppet video

by Andrew Yoon { Sep 21st 2009 at 11:30PM }

Namco has released one last trailer for Katamari Forever to coincide with its release this week. Once again, the questionably-sober hand puppets return to talk about why they think Katamari Forever is the best Katamari game yet. It's a surreal video that makes us feel like we're watching Adult Swim while, um, eating brownies -- something Katamari creator Keita Takahashi claims he doesn't do. After watching this trailer, we're not entirely sure we believe him.

That is the BEST promo I have ever seen for a videogame.

I want this game so bad but I can wait for a price drop

Too bad Keita Takahashi had nothing to do with this game. Or, by process of logic, this trailer.

The last game Keita Takahashi worked on was the sequel, We Love Katamari. That being said, I still have the first two PS2 iterations, and I will certainly be buying this tomorrow. Can't wait to hear the remixed soundtrack!

Yeah these games are hard to resist. We love/heart Katamari, whatever, was fantastic. Beautiful Katamari on the 360 was so-so. I'm starting to think the reviews are lousy because it's just more of the same, which is probably fine for big fans, like myself :)

why let facts get in the way

this is way better than beautiful katamari. not to far into it and already seeing the charm and humor. and yes, i am sober.

I got it last Friday from GameStop and it's awesome so far- better than Beautiful Katamari and certainly a much more complete game. Remixed ST is... interesting. Now if only my PS3 hadn't stopped working (again) while playing it on Sunday. Hooray for paying Sony $900 (so far) for a $600 console! :(

It's also like an anti-drugs commercial at the same time!

I'd love to play some more Katamari, but $50 is just too much for this. I'll definitely get it when it drops to $30 or less.

Not sure why, but I thought this was a PSN release. Time to add another game to my amazon.com wishlist.

The Prince is an African American?

Yea I will also be waiting for a price drop. I played the demo yesterday and enjoyed it but 50 bucks doesn't sit well with me.

I always knew Matthew McConaughey was a monkey!
