Although the two first games in the series (Katamari Damacy and We Love Katamari) hardly set the sales charts alight, it's not the commercial failings of the critically acclaimed titles that has put the series' creators off further titles. As Namco's Toshiya Hara, producer of Me & My Katamari, told 1Up: "The core concept of the Katamari series was complete from the first game, and we cannot really improve on this. The PSP version was made basically so that the game could be carried around and played on-the-go. So for now, this is where we wrap it up."
A genuine shame for sure, as the Katamari games are true critical darlings, and deservedly so. If you haven't played either of the first two games yet (both on PlayStation 2), we'd strongly advise you locate a copy - they're great fun. And don't forget that Me & My Katamari will be appearing on the PSP throughout Europe and Australia later this year.
