I was talking to Booya earlier about my Katamari Brain Washing plan that I plan to inflict on everyone, gamers ( if you don’t know about this game, you are not a gamer 8P *bricked* )and non gamers alike ( I’ll probably make my grandaunt play this if her eye sights are better ). Having successfully inflicted it on my ex-colleagues *eyes velverse shiftily* . Booya ended up plugging me various links relating to Takahashi Keita, the brain behind the wicked weirdness of Katamari who rolled up the world in a gaming storm a few years back.

Reading more and more about him. I am strongly convinced that he is made out of AWESOME.

On Gaming’s Place in the World

“Everyday life is full of fun and stimulating things. The feeling of just riding a bicycle, or the sensation of sand on your bare feet when you’re walking on a beach. The happy feeling that you get when you decide to skip - the increase in your heartbeat that happens when you just decide to stop in the middle of a road crossing. You couldn’t really say that they are meaningful things - but they all help you realize that everyday life is quite good fun too. You don’t need games to have fun. And possibly, you don’t even need games at all.”

Keita Takahashi
Game Designer, Namco (creator or Katamari Damacy)

This is coming from a game designer. Talking about how we don’t need video games to have fun. BRB, it’s a bit late but I think I need to worship him right now D:
