elebits is my most recent konami game so i will post a thread about it! i like it :). i think it kind of has that frantic pace popularized by katamari, where you constantly want more power so you can do more lift more things and do more damage, and since you're timed you want it all as quickly as possible.

wait, is elebits konami's commentary on the american dream? that is, the dream of hastily getting as much of what you want as possible before becoming old and impotent? is this game racist? discuss

If there is one thing that can be said about this game, it is that the art is really, really pretty. Too bad the game doesn't seem to be quite as pretty (?).

Is the music any good? I liked Nekomata Master's songs on bemani and Suikoden V.

I don't think much of Elebits.

I got this game for Christmas and was getting into it, but just haven't been playing many console games lately, but perhaps I'll finish it in honor of fkw. I certainly enjoyed it enough to keep playing.

I really enjoy elebits very much. It is addicting cute fun and it always makes me hang on the edge of my seat as the time is running out! Alot like Katamari in these aspects but you know a different game with different storyline and somewhat different stragety!

I have to force myself to play and like elebits a lot.

I shouldn't have to force myself to like it.

The game plays like Katamari in reverse. In Katamari, at the end you have no size restrictions, and you do whatever you want.

In Elebits you start with no restrictions and get restricted arbitrarily every level.
