Silver (not gold) get Beautiful Katamari demo

This demo release goes in direct contrast to Microsoft's XBLM membership rule where silver subscribers get free XBLM downloads a week after gold subscribers. You know, since a gold subscription costs moola. But, we guess, Beautiful Katamari is all about the silver, snubbing the gold and does what it wants. Or someone in charge of the Marketplace flipped the wrong switch, thus locking out gold subscribers. See what you get when you pay for Xbox Live? Have you learned your lesson yet?

Hahaha! Oh man... Failure yet again.
You know, instead of penalizing Silver members by giving them things late, I think MS should reward GOLD members by giving them FREEBIES. You know, a gamer pic or theme here and there.

You know, I bought this game for my GF and she LOVES it. Does anyone know if there are plans to release more Katamari games?

They're not typically found, they're made.

If you have a PS2 and you haven't already gotten the two KD games on there, those are your best bet. They're significantly better than BK on the 360, in my opinion.
Other than that, there's no news on the series future.

Thanks Tony. I haven't been able to turn on the PS2 since I upgraded to an HDTV. The graphics look pretty rough!

Well we're talking about a game that was never about graphics so much as art style. The game does not look significantly better on 360 technically and it looks the same artistically. I think most people would be fine with the 360 version if they didn't own the PS2 versions. Myself, I own both PS2 games, and chose to pass on BK (360) and M&MK (PSP).

Well, I'm just saying that all my PS2 games look crappy on a 57" tv.

I agree with the above post stating that instead of delaying Silver subs getting content for 1 week. They should instead give us Gold subs some freebies, especially us in the UK who never get anything free apart from the Undertow, and the Live is 5ive Carcassone.

Got this demo yesterday, my oh my did the frame rate impress me. Is that how fast the first two games ran on non PAL consoles?
Either way its an instant purchase for me. We love katamari is not enough katamaris for me, i require MOAR
