Beautiful Katarmari demo problems for Gold members

Xbox Live Silver memberships are free and only afford the ability to download content from Xbox Live. Gold XBL memberships, on the other hand, cost $50 in annual fees with the added perk of playing online multiplayer matches.

But this time around the Silver membership crowd scored while the Gold membership guys were left in the dust regarding the Beautiful Katamari demo offered on Europe's XBL service.

It turns out that the Beautiful Katamari demo was only available to the freebie Silver membership subscribers and not for Gold members. Graeme Boyd, the Microsoft Europe community manager, apologized and asked the Gold members to be patient as the problems were worked out.

"There's a Beautiful Katamari demo available on marketplace now, but there's been a wee mistake somewhere along the line and at the moment it's only available for Silver members. It'll be fixed soon though, at which point it'll only be available to Gold members for the next week - and then open for everyone.

"Hold tight Gold members, and if you're a Silver member and you fancy rolling around in one of the funniest and most surreal gaming experiences ever--get your skates on."

The game Beautiful Katamari will be in UK stores on February 29.
