Normally I would eat your soul after I've stolen it (*nods in the direction of Blog Title*) but I've since learned through Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow that I can combine souls with other things and make them better.

Like say I took a couple souls and combined them with a PSP... I'd get a DS - instant upgrade!!! I'd also like to know how many souls it would take to upgrade my car to something more fancy - yet gas efficient..... or I could just combine a few souls with my bank account and not have to worry.

I think souls are a great thing. I would like to get into soul collecting as both a hobby and a way to improve my life and make things easier. Like, if I wake up late in the morning, I just take a soul - combine it with my hair - poof - instant great hair day!! Pompadore ala Phantom!

But enough about souls - let's talk about Skeletons. I'm gonna come out and say this, it's a little controversial, but... I'm predjudice against Skeletons. I must admit that I hate them and I wish them nothing but hardships. The worst part about Skeletons is that they are literally everywhere. There is probably one inside of you right now - DON'T LOOK!!! If you look, the Skeleton inside of you gains control of your body and then all hope is lost.

The only thing worse than Skeletons is Skeletons with meat all over them... meat and juicy delicious intelligent filled brains! So don't let that Skeleton inside of you take control - fight the urge to look at it!!!

When I was about 7, I cut my knee up pretty bad on some rocks. It was very nasty stuff. And I caught a small glimpse of the Skeleton inside of me.... that whole summer is a blank. Coincidence? I think not! But somehow, I found the courage to fight it and win control of my body again!!

SKELETONS WILL DESTROY YOUR HOMES AND LIVLIHOODS IF YOU LET THEM!!!

The only efficient way to fight Skeletons is with giant axes. Get a permit and carry one wherever you go! I'm not suggesting that you go around and kill Skeletons.... but if you are waiting in line at the bank or the movies and there are Skeletons in front of you... give em a little tap with the axe... for good ole koo. And if you get the urge to chop them in twain... don't blame me in court. I never explicitly TOLD you to kill them now did I?

This sort of brings me to my next point. We should pass laws to strip Skeletons of their rights just as they have been stripped of their flesh. Skeletons shouldn't have rights in this country as far as I'm concerned. Their motives are devious and I simply can't fathom why we've allowed them to live among us for this long. Did we loose some big Skeleton war or something? I say we nip this problem in the bud and make it legal to hunt Skeletons. They are already dead, why not make them more dead?

You know where the problem lies? Say you kill a Skeleton and get caught. You get prosecuted for murder, and the state kills you. What have we got within a few months? Another Skeleton mucking up the works! The system is flawed!

Ok, well that's about enough outta me. I guess I didn't get around to talking about Castlevania... but I hope I've given you a lot to think about!!!

Other than the obvious sore gamer's thumb you get from constant control stick pressure, I think Namco should add another warning to the box...

Warning: Over-consumption of Katamari Damacy could cause you to create Strange Drug-Like Induced Threads on message boards at 2am. Please consult a psychiatrist before playing with your Katamari for more than 5 hours at a time!

I am barely able to communicate without contantly thinking of Katamaris. Just spent 7 straight hours with the latest game; We Love Katamari - so much rolling, so much King of All Cosmos, so insane right now! I've finished the first basic run-through of the game, not counting all the secondary missions all the fans have. But I rolled up enough to where I was able to complete the last level no problem.

This game in it's own way is so unlike the first one. I mean, you have the same basic premise, but it gets more complicated. The first Katamari Damacy was easier to handle, and all the levels were layed out nicely. A little awkward at times, but eventually you knew where everything was. So you could roll up between 90-98% of a level eventually.

We Love Katamari - not so much. The levels are so expansive. I don't think even if you learned where everything was you'd get to roll it all up, I don't see any way. And the largest level (similar to the make the world level of the last one) - it's HUGE! The biggest level in Katamari Damacy gave you 25 minutes to get 300M. No big deal really, and eventually I topped out somewhere around 890M as the absolute largest I could get rolling up everything.

We Love Katamari's biggest level gives you 17 minutes to get 500M. So it's more challenging to say the least, and if it's your first experience with the game, it's not going to go so well. Especially since when new areas open up for you to access, you don't quite know where they end. This level kept going and going and going. Seriously, it's ENORMOUS!!! I ended up with a Katamari size of 2,300+M and I couldn't have rolled up more than 70% of the level at most. There were still so many objects left, and some so large I couldn't even roll them up at that size. Hopefully I can work on moving a bit faster, I must have the biggest Katamari there is!

Also, quick note before I get back into it. My favorite new level is the racetrack. All the new quirky theme levels are great, but having the Katamari racing at top speeds just slightly out of your control as you are trying to grab objects left and right. Funnest Thing Ever!

Oh... I hear the fans calling me. Must get back to it! Vrrooooom!!!

Some people just don't have opinions. Like koomaster.
koomaster must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could koomaster possibly have for not rating a single film?
