Shocking but Not Surprising News

One of my favorite games was Katamari Damacy which is a quirky game designed by Keita Takahashi. The idea of the game Katamari Damacy is to roll a ball around until it gets bigger and bigger - and that is actually the game. Though the game idea sounds mudane, it is one of the sleeper hits of recent times. During in one of his interviews, he mentioned that he wasn't playing much video games. After that interview, it would not be a surprise that one day he would stop designing games and it was confirmed with the following article: Katamari creator dreams of playgrounds.
