[QUOTE="Ozzpot, post: 5851, member: 449"] I would like to apologise to Farsight for this rant. I would not get so wound up about these things if I had anything better to do than guzzle coke and wait for virtual pinball tables to be released. That's MY problem and I shouldn't take it out on anyone else. Here's my more considered thoughts: Farsight have taken on a difficult task in releasing a game, with a constant stream of DLC, on multiple platforms at once. With all the different certification processes and scheduling taken into consideration, it must be an almost impossible task to synchronise releases across all platforms, or to give accurate dates for any of those releases. Not least I suspect, because this is a small development team comprised of creative people who want to get on with the job of creating these delights for us rather than keeping the baying masses updated about every hickup in the process. It seems the devs that do post here are regular members of the team with other things to do, so perhaps there is no "press officer" or "community liaison officer" or something similar, purely to do this job. Having said that, it still seems ridiculous that a DLC release (MM and PoB for XBLA) could have been thought to be due today (Tuesday, May 8th) as late as yesterday evening, is then inexplicably moved back 5 weeks with such late notice, but I sure Microsoft are in no small part responsible for that. I have taken note of, and subscribed to, the forum thread which consolidates latest news (thanks for that Serenseven), but it seems like an odd corner to tuck away such important updates. I guess it's something we're just going to have to bear with if we're so obsessed as to want to be kept informed on an hourly basis. [/QUOTE]
