PS3 loses Katamari to Microsoft?

Is another title about to switch again? It seems Microsoft have got their eyes on signing the next Katamari Damacy game, Beautiful Katamari as an Xbox 360 exclusive. It was announced earlier in the year for BOTH Xbox 360 and the PS3 but according to Level Up an exclusivity deal between Microsoft and Namco Bandai is "very close" to being finalised. Both Bandai and Microsoft have refused to comment and will probably unveil the news at E3 in July.

Wow Sony loses another one. (Maybe)
I don't think this is good for gaming. It would be cool if there were NO exclusives then you could choose your console on merit alone. Alas this is not the case and will likely be true for some time to come

Without exclusives they may all get together and make one console between all the companies. The most powerful console would always win as it would have the same games as the rest but could run them better and at a better frame rate.

True, but teaming up isn't necessarily a bad thing. If Sony and Microsoft somehow teamed up, they could make a console that'd defy the rules animation, structure, and even FPS control rate.

But then again, it's not Microsoft or Sony without competition.

They both have different goals and ways of doing business and would never come to any agreements.

Well they did change the Controls for Smackdown. And I did not enjoy that one bit.

I thought the controls for that were so much better when you learned them, gave you so much more freedom and was so much easier to remember how to do every move.

Looks like it will be coming to Live Arcade in October
We reported on Friday that Beautiful Katamari appears to be headed exclusively (for a while anyway) to the Xbox 360. Now, word has hit that the game may actually be released for the Xbox 360 this October as an Xbox Live Arcade game. While we haven't seen it confirmed as of yet, the first sentence in a GameSpot hands-on doesn't mince words (emphasis added):
The big, huge Katamari ball of junk just keeps on rolling, this time with a new installment called Beautiful Katamari slated to hit Xbox Live Arcade in October.
