Deficient Katamari

3 out of 5 starsScore: 60/100

After being a huge fan of the PS2 and PSP katamari games I was really hoping for something of at least the same quality as those. Unfortunately Beautiful katamari does not quite live up to its predecessors. 

On the plus side you get to roll the hugest katamari yet, rolling up stars and such like in space.
It is all over far too quickly though, the content is sparse compared to other katamari games, yes you can download more challenges over XBL but at a cost. 
I feel that the downloadable levels are not extra content but rather left out content that should of been included in the game. 
This may have been a budget priced game in some countries, but in Australia where it is still selling for over $100 in some places, it is not worth the money.
