[QUOTE="Worf, post: 168506, member: 1047"] It's not preselling software Apple hasn't approved, it's preselling software where there's no plan. I.e., you don't know what tables are in the upcoming season. What happened was Season 1 rocked, so people blindly bought Season 2. But season 2 ended on a somewhat .. sour note with all the Premier/Gottlieb tables that were on the second half. Basically a lot of people liked how season 2 started, but then when the Premier/Gottlieb tables came out, people felt ripped off and they complained angrily to Apple who probably had to issue more than a few refunds. Apple still allows pre-sales (plenty of software out there does it). However, Apple requires the develop to explain what exactly they're buying. Just in case people see you release awesome things at the beginning only to release lame crap at the end ripping people off. So if Farsight wanted to re-offer it, they'd have to basically publish the list of what you're going to get. Farsight likewise doesn't offer season passes to any other platform for similar reasons. It's also why you can buy season 1 and season 2 passes - because you know exactly what you're going to get. [/QUOTE]
