the rumor of it being exclusive, I have to say............

I THINK NOT

FIRST WOOHOO

If so, just a little friendly advice: The whole "first" thing is REALLY frowned upon here. Please bear that in mind when posting. This isn't AICN.

Duh dum dum dum.....

Absent you say eh? Hrm....

Everywhere I read said it was 360 exclusive until I was brought to the attention of the Namco site with it listed as 360 and PS3. Seems like it would be a simple deal for Namco-Bandai to clarify?

Either way.. Not my type of game. More something I would play on a hand-held but it's great the 360 keeps getting more and more diversity.

I wouldn't count the exclusiveness as a major coup for the 360 (such as MGS4 becoming 360-only, which ain't gonna happen). Katamari won't move consoles in North America. But in Japan...this may give MS a significant (if temporary) boost.

It will also help expand the diversity of the 360's game catalogue, adding a unique title with broad-audience appeal.

@razer -

The game was originally announced as a PS3 and Xbox 360 title. This is the first time its been listed as only for the Xbox 360 in a official document.

By no means does this make the exclusivity official (Namco could've made an error), but it certainly does add weight to the rumors.

Covenant6924d ago

No prob. Every forum has its rules, both written and not. I was just trying to make you aware of one, in a friendly way.

Cool?

RedSeven6924d ago

I don't own an Xbox and have never heard of this game. Um, what the hll is it? Is that the Burger King guy? Someone please fill me in?

It first came out 2004 called "Katamari Damacy". It was a rather easy game to play, and quite addicting. Many people liked it for its simplicity and gameplay. I personally never really got into it. But I did play Katamari, and it was rather fun. A little advice, IF you wanna check this game out, keep an open mind. It's not bad, and you may enjoy it.

katamari was a sleeper hit for the ps2.

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
