[QUOTE="Trading_Zoner"]this game is gonna sell horribly.DrinkDuff

Here's you wishing.

it's true though...

It ain't true until it happens there champ.

i can almost bet you money it wont sell well on 360. it didnt sell the best on ps2, now on a system that is failing horribly in japan you expect it to sell better ? on wii this game might blow up, there it has the best chance, but we can almost guarantee USA and europe 360 owners wont flock to this game.

i have both previous games, and they are fun and quirky at first, but after the first level or 2 the fun starts to wear off. i was personally excited for this one, to see it in action on motion controls would bring new life to the game, ps3 orwii. then i saw pics of the game, and it looks just like the ps2 ones, i dont get it, why not upgrade the graphics ? it can still have the same art ****and have bump mapping or better lighting or something. and now that it wont be on motion controls, i have no motivation to play this game anymore.

You make a good point. Motion controls would have breathed new life into the katamari games, even an update to the grpahics would have been nice. Oh well, at least there will be less jaggies on screen than the PS2 iterations.

So basically Namco is giving Japan the middle finger (since basically nobody has bought an xbox over there). I predict mediocre sales for this one. Such a shame.

It will probably sell at a higher rate than the PS3...lol

Did anyone notice at the bottom of the page on the comments section, they posted:

"Did you know a PS3 Title dies of cancellation every 6 seconds?.....lol:P, another one bites the dust.

Cows-Bu Bu Buh nobody plays that game anymore, who cares!!!!!:cry:

As a 360 owner, I don't care about having this game on my system... But I'm always happy to see some good news.

[QUOTE="DementedDragon"]Any reason why it won't be on the PS3 aside from the lower userbase?supermechakirby

something about DIFFICULT PROGRAMMING AND DEVELOPMENT

NO NO, the political correct cow answer would be:"They havent found the hidden power of the cell yet, so we wait, and this game is meh anywayz."

First, Namco plans for the game to go on to the PS3 and Xbox 360, then they plan on making one for the Wii, then they cancel it for the PS3, then they make it an Xbox 360 exclusive! I cant even afford a 360! Why cant they make up their ****ing minds! :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Like this is going to help 360 sales. Most of the 360 owners here won't even get it and I'm sure many people who owned a 360 won't get it as well, so there's really no point in making it exclusive.

I'm looking at this game and wondering....what is the big deal? It looks likeit should be on the Wiito be honest. At least I know why it's listed as a $49.99 title.

Who here honestly cares if this is exclusive or not? It's not going to sale the 360 console in Japan and it's not going to do squat for X360 in the US. Why is this title even on anyones radar? Can't you guys hype proper games like Mass Effect Ninja Gaiden 2.....something that appeals to more than a handful of people?

I can say this without caring one way or the other....that game looks like crap and if it sales a million copies X360's base is more diverse than previously thought.....heck if that thing sold more than 300k I'd be shocked. There is a reason why it's listed at a lower retail price lol. Just noticed it's not even listed at $49.99.....it's listed as $39.99 from my distributor. You're telling me most X360 owners are going to buy this?

I own a 360 and i think it is stupid they cancelled this on ps3 cause the original katamari damacy was made to match the playstion analog stick placement.

[QUOTE="-Karmum-"]

I didn't see anything in that article about the Wii version as a rumour.

"On July 5, 2007 Namco revealed their E3 2007 lineup, listing Beautiful Katamari as Xbox 360 only. On the same day, Famitsu reported that Beautiful Katamari has been cancelled for the PS3 and is currently in development for the Wii and Xbox 360."

supermechakirby

no famitsu never said that about the Wii version

Oh.Really.
Next time, TC, do some research before you hit the "Reply" button.

Between that and MS not saying BK is a 360 exclusive at E3 convinces me a Wii version is coming. Either way, there is nothing to indicate it is exclusive. You are wrong TC.

Perhaps Namco's primary reason for dropping a PS3 version is audience. At least in America putting it out on the 360 gives the game a fighting chance for penetration. As for Japan, well putting it on the 360 would be about the same as putting it out on the PS3--it's a case of seeing it as either 1/4 full or 3/4 empty. Will they make a Wii version? Maybe, but it'll probably depend on how well they can translate the Katamari control scheme to the Wiimote.

I can imagine it now Cows: "meh this game sucked any ways" " Who cares" "Not like I ever bought it"htekemerald

Or in reverse, everyone that once laughed at this game for being stupid (which was everyone that didn't own a PS2) will now love the game.

As for why it isn't on the PS3, it's most likely due to the news about Microsoft paying for it to be exclusive to Xbox 360.

the Wii version was NOTHING but a rumor, and last night Famitsu confirmed that the PS3 version was cancelled

http://kotaku.com/gaming/did-you-know-a-ps3-title-dies-of-cancellation-every-6-seconds%3F/ps3-beautiful-katamari-binned-276579.php

Officially Beautiful Katamari is XBox 360 exclusive

supermechakirby

The first one was pretty boring anyways, like I said, I would rather play a game that takes skillz and has strategy, not games like this and gta4. They need to make more games like ninja gaiden where it really gives u a challenge. I think that is what gaming is really all about. Challenging your level of skillz and seeing or can u beat a game like ninja gaiden. These type of games, if I wanted to play games like this then I wouldve bought me a wii and nothing else, because the wii brings so many type games like this. This is nuttin big, Little Big Planet will blow this game away.
