BogiGreenskin Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Not too bad, really. You can get 90% of the trophies just by playing, no need to specifically setting out to get a trophy. Sure, you need to do this for the collection but other than that not too much of a problem. Only issue is finding a 2nd controller if you don;t have one. One bronze trophy can keep you from plat.

jqtaxpayer Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Gave this one a 3. There's plenty of YouTube videos available of the levels in this game to help one find their way through the levels, and with a combination of guides and help from the forums, finding all of the items in your collection shouldn't be more than a minor headache.

LordMaceX Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I rated Katamari Forver a 7 out of 10 for difficulty. Reasons: - Cowbear is the bane of your existence, it will probably take you about 2-3 hours of straight tries to capture this annoyance and is quite difficult. - There are no guides for collecting all of the items like most games that have collection trophies, due to this you must find most of the items on your list on your own or of the advice of others. - Other than these two factors getting the platinum and other trophies is not all that difficult so it has some factors against it but it is not overly difficult in a complete sense.

BobbyLight Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 I went with a 5. Like the second poster said, there are Youtube videos galore. The only real issue is the Cowbear, which is a nightmare, and the complete collection trophy. The others just take some time to get. I also didn't like the 50k score on the punishment mini game. I don't think I am going to be able to get that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What this guy say. I was up all night, just for the COWBEAR. Took me about 23 times to find a route so that I could reach 8m 04cm 13mm. Now thats stressful.

Vickynga Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 I'll give it a 5, I'm a fan of this series so I don't get tired of the game easily.. But it's really time consuming. And that Cowbear is the most annoying thing ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeliana Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Cowbear is a bitch, but that's the only notable "challenge" in the game. The rest of it is learning levels and scouring them for 100% Items, which can be a time-consuming process, but not too difficult. 6/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VirtualboyRapper Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I said 3/10. There aren't many challenges in this game that can't be accomplished in one or two tries. The only really tough part is rolling up Cowbear to complete the collection (there really ought to be a trophy awarded just for that). It's difficult and somewhat frustrating to do, but with patience, strategy and some luck, anyone should be able to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cauchy Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 I gave this a 6. If time consumption and boredom were not a factor, then I'd probably only give it a 3 or 4, since there are only a few things that are challenging (i.e. the cowbear). Nevertheless, I found this game incredibly tedious towards the end, when I was going for the final items in my collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIDQ Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 This was a very fun and rewarding platinum. I got as much of the collection as I could on my own, but the fine folks at Katamari on the Web basically know how to get every item, and they helped me complete the collection. Skillwise, getting the Cowbear was a little challenging. Getting the Devil Kataoka was a little challenging. Beating the punishment mini-game was a little challenging. Having to go through Wake up the King numerous times to search for those last few disappearing planets was a pain in the butt. But nothing was really "hard." It's a toss-up between a 4 and a 5 for me. I guess I'll give it a 5, but it's definitely not harder than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exodusdoomsday Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 I gave this a 6.

Nevertheless, I found this game incredibly tedious towards the end, when I was going for the final items in my collection. I auctully agree. To be honest. If i were to rate this game in general i would give it a 7. But if we are talking about Platinums i would say 6 aswel. I mean the challenges were hard really the Cowbear, and the Devil were painful, but i kind of found it repetitive when i was done with Drive mode and after Eternal i was really really tired of the game. Do not get me wrong Katamari forever is a fun tribute game, but the items lead it to be harder than it should be at times. If anything i hope in next years game there is a total Revamp of new levels, and new chellenges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andington Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 i went for a 4 it is kinda time consuming but the hardest part 'the cowbear' is easy when you know how, i followed the same route as a video guide and then its just a case of snaggin the bastard, now that i have done it i would easily and happily do it again (if forced ). the game is fun unique and good trophy wise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutchlink Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Not hard, but collecting everything is very time consuming, since there is no real guide where all of the stuff is located! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exodusdoomsday Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Not hard, but collecting everything is very time consuming, since there is no real guide where all of the stuff is located! Agreed, you have to look on this site and the KF website, even then there are some items that are hidden in the game as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primebeaver Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I give this game an 8...Reasons are simple...I think I spent the better part of 3 days just finding the last 60 items i needed, secondly getting the 2,000,000 size Katamari makes no sense at all....I tried everything under the sun all the advice and i still dont know what made me get it...Played the level to get it probably 30 times trying different things like more stardust, more planets from mp, and got all the comets on all the robo king levels and it still after all this took me countless tries....I have never played Katamari games b4......This is a pretty hard plat IMO...The level of persistance required to get some of these trophies is so demanding and boring.....

Master Of Puppets Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 as its been said, the collection trophy is the only think keeping me from this. that and 50k on punishment. i literally got 300 points away and a cheap boulder out of nowhere blindsided me. i raged. other than that its a fantastic game with an even better soundtrack. the we love katamari OST is on my ipod haha. listening to king of kings song as i type. so its a 5 for me.

mitmat Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Love this game. It is absolutely great; even the music is great. That being said the platinum should be about a 6 for most people. The only hard part is completing your collection (getting every single item could be difficult if you can't find what you need in a guide). Also...the cowbear is a whore.

OniJsan Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Gets a 4 from me.. Not all that hard to get.. Just collecting is the main pain in the butt and thats where all the 4 points goes to. Since I played the other titles in the Kata series this is no trouble for me. I do admit.. Cowbear.. Ugh. Otherwise a wonderful game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeganiX Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 6. With a guide a 4, without a guide an 8. Very timeconsuming, multiple playthroughs and the dreaded Cowbear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billygolden78 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Voted a 5. Im a Katamari noob, so i was having a blast on the first 2 runthroughs, but after that it did become a bit of a grind. The collectables would have been impossible if not for the forums here and on that other Katamari site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefChaos Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 6 sounds about right. Cowbear can be pretty tough, it took me a couple hours and I got pretty lucky when I rolled it up. Completing the collection isn't easy, I probably wouldn't have been able to without the guides. It doesn't take much skill in the traditional sense, but it does require good attention to detail. I got up to 99% on my own, then made a checklist of what I needed, noted their locations and just went after them one by one. Endurer is annoying but will come with persistence.

MikeKeese Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 I'm voting a 5 and I'm a Katamari veteran. The game honestly is an endurance round. It is essentially not that hard to get any item besides the Cowbear (even Devil Kataoka or whatever I got within 2 attempts when trying to get him). Having to play the levels so many times, no exact guides to where items are (without some tedious searching both in game, on google, and on Katamari on the web), and the hardest trophy in my eyes, enormous katamari make the game really draining each time you get close to 2,000,000. It really isn't difficult in the traditional sense of other games because essentially I think this could be achieved by most people but it definitely takes a different kind of endurance that only really big katamari fans would be able to handle. Endurer is also just random luck but not too bad if you use Drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hermdog006 Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 This was number 50 for me. I voted a 7. It is a challenging game in both difficulty and patience. The cowbear wasn't too bad because I focused on it early. I was able to complete the collection with a combination of tips from this site, as well as, the katamari forums. Use L1 to find the tiny cosmos planets like the three from Limited to 50 planets. I did enjoy the challenge, and the break from the norm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
