Katamari Damacy (2004)Released Mar 18, 2004Roll over small objects and they stick to your ball. As it grows, furniture and whole buildings start to look like things you can pick up.

Mad Maestro! (2001)Released Nov 11, 2001Hitting the beat is only half of conducting the orchestra. How hard you press sets the volume, and colored cues tell you when to play softly or firmly. This is a rhythm game worth trying with the PS2’s pressure-sensitive buttons, because your touch matters as much as your timing.0
