After all the back-and-forth, swings and roundabouts nonsense surrounding Beautiful Katamari and the PlayStation 3, it seems that all the confusion is finally coming to an end with a surprise TWIST OH MY GOD! It's finally, truly been confirmed -- The PlayStation 3 will NOT get Beautiful Katamari. It will, however, get a Katamari game in the future. This should finally make everybody happy.
Beautiful Katamari director Jun Morikawa cleared the air at the Tokyo Game Show, putting an end to months of arguments and on again/off again speculation. He did not, however, go into any details on what the PlayStation 3 game would entail. All we know is that a Katamari game of some description will be touched by the magic of Blu-ray eventually.
We now prepare for the next stage of console fanboy arguments surrounding the Katamari series -- which game is better? I can't wait for that one to start.

I can't disagree with your logic, but after seeing how Lair failed with its controls (seeing as that's the game that I thought would make the most sense with sixaxis so far), I think it's best to hold that thought until we've gotten our hands on it. I'm cautiously optimistic.
I think Sixaxis would work even better with Katamari, especially if they at least gave you an option to use the traditional controls.
DO WANT
but cmon guys. after the original games theres no reason to play the same game twice. Katamari has run it's course
2) the controls on the 360 DID feel a little weird with the offset joysticks, but i'm sure you could get used to it.
