Beautiful Katamari demo rolls onto Live News
Xbox 360 News by Robert Purchese
Atari has rolled a Beautiful Katamari demo on to Live Marketplace.
Yes, the US had it months ago, but they also had the full game from October. Ours is not due to arrive now until March, after it slipped back from February yesterday.
The good news is you can very nearly play Katamari on 360 for the very first time, and it has better graphics and more things on screen and new challenges and online support.
The bad news is it feels more like a high-definition remake than full offering in the widely celebrated series. That which made the PS2 originals so bright and refreshing has remained stagnant here, resulting in being branded as a "fairly poor Katamari game" by our editor Tom.
Still a worthwhile venture for newcomers, mind you. Pop over to our Beautiful Katamari review to find out more.

I was puzzled at the headline, 'demo rolls onto Live', as was quite certain that I had already tried demo some times ago, ah did so on US marketplace! Yeah did not appeals that much to me as visually not so advanced on PS2.

Why the fuck has it taken so long?
Lucky I didn't like the US demo much, so I know I'm not missing out on much when I take the attitude of "stick it". |

Couldn't see this last night, I guess the Silver member only thing explains it. What the hell is that about?
Can't really see myself buying this, anyway. I have the first two games, and while I do love them I don't really feel I'd get much value out of more of the same with slightly prettier graphics. Besides, the whole business of charging extra to "download" content that's already on the disc really rubs me the wrong way.

A demo for silver members only, must be a mistake. I want the demo now!
