This arrived in my inbox, celebrating one year of PB. Scolling down revealed the "update" on the 360 situation, which is no further forward than before. Do they even have another publisher to step to after this? Of course once/if they do, it will kick of months of months of Microsoft "approvals" updates as to another reason its been held up....**** me
We promised our longsuffering Xbox 360 customers an update this week, so here it is.
As most of you know, the Xbox 360 is the only platform that requires us to have a publisher instead of dealing directly with Microsoft. Our publisher Fillpoint (aka Crave Entertainment) filed bankruptcy last year, and that has wreaked havoc on our plans for releasing new tables on the Xbox 360.
We’ve been asked many times “Why don’t you just find a new publisher?” It’s not that simple, unfortunately- our contract with Fillpoint is now an asset of a bankrupt company, so we need both the consent of the creditors and the approval of the court to move the game to another publisher. The good news is that we are VERY CLOSE to getting court approval on a transfer. We wish it was happening faster (and we’re more frustrated than you- we lose money every day the new tables aren’t available on 360). But it will happen!
