VERY GOOD REMAKE! here's the breakdown:

pros:
- High definition, 60FPS! they went more indepth than the first reroll in this department. (the water looks great!)
- autosaving!
- new levels!
- some cool ui enhancements (showing objectives you need to go towards, etc)
- achievements and steam profile stuff!
- basically everything is intact from the original game!

cons (most are just nitpicks tbh):
- like the first remake, most sfx is pitched incorrectly which is odd.
- some track ordering changes [no katamari on the swing on level 2 :(]
- the ending theme of a level is slightly out of pace (plays too early)
- some VA is interchanged from the japanese version to here, which is odd!
- some of the song and cousin names are changed? which is also odd
- 20$ soundtrack addition dlc for some reason???
- small character design changes but nothing crazy compared to what the first re-roll did.

one last nitpick is that there should've been a katamari drive mode added! one of the new levels basically does this and it's a shame they didn't just allow this for any level! it'd really add longevity to the title. other than that though i would say this is the definitive version of the game! get it when you can!
