PlayStation CRACK!

So I hung out with Lynn and some of her hometown crew tonight. We went out to dinner, then returned to Lynn's boyfriend's basement to play the Katamari game. I am officially hooked. I don't even own a PlayStation, and I'm considering purchasing this game. I will then be forced to take up residence with Lynn and Susan and commandeer their PS2.

It's the trippiest video game I've ever seen -- lots of colors and crazy music and, of course, the INSANE premise. Basically, you're this little green dude whose dad is the King of the Universe who accidentally destroyed all the stars while intoxicated. So you have to help Big Daddy by restoring the stars and various other heavenly bodies. How? By rolling a giant rainbow-colored sticky ball around on Earth and picking up random shit, of course! As you pick up more crap, the ball gets bigger and you can pick up even bigger crap (people, cows, houses, small islands). It's AWESOME!

I am determined to hone my three-dimensional video game skills for the sole purpose of succeeding at this game. Until now I have been fairly amibivalent toward anything beyond the SEGA Genesis level... anything more than 2 dimensions was just too much for my little brain to handle! But for Katamari, I make an exception. Victory will be MINE!

I wonder how long it will take me to get sick of it (the game, not victory. I never get sick of victory.)...

Also, it's really a shame I don't do drugs, 'cause I bet this game would be really fuckin' awesome while tripping.
