Demo for Beautiful Katamari Hits Xbox LIVE Marketplace

Following close behind a crazy intro movie that was released recently, it looks like a demo for Beautiful Katamari is hitting the Xbox LIVE Marketplace. Like previous installments in the quirky franchise, this game promises to deliver more giant-ball-rolling action that fans of the series have come to love. You can also expect plenty more off-kilter Japanese humor and catchy tunes that will get stuck in your head for days. The demo should be available for free download through the Marketplace, though unfortunately it is restricted to North America at the moment.

Kind of weird I finished downloading the demo before this article was published. Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen… When you download a demo and then run it immediately it makes a bunch of bars and scratchy noises (audio, not physically the console) and I have to manually turn off the power? I got the red lights today. =[
It looks like this will be coming to the PS3 after all:
