It should be both (X) button and Analog Stick.

Thanks for the kind words. Beelzebozo, Thanks for the offer, but gifts are unnecessary. Just hearing you all enjoy the game is a good for me. As a gamer myself, I know what the wait can be like for an upcomming title, and how it'shard to get information on what's going on most of the time.

Managment handles the discusssions with MS. I was out of the office yesterday so I'm not sure where thats at yet. Thanks

Thanks Serenseven for explaining that. Rock Band doesn't need a title update because thier DLC is just the audio and some values to tell the engine where to place the dots. Pinball is way more complicated than a simple music game. Each table requries specialized code to work. It's impossible...

No not yet, we're still discussing with them. Hopefully they will let us fix it in the next patch. 2 weeks is a minimum. Most of the time is 3 weeks or more. There is also a week for us to make a submission, test it and submit. Then sometimes we have to wait for an "appointment" date...

It takes a minimum of 2 weeks for Microsoft to test it, sometimes longer. No matter what we change, they do an entire certification test on the game. Asside from that, we also need time to make the change, then do internal testing to make sure nothing broke, which adds a few days to a week...

We don't know yet, there will be some back and forth with Microsoft over the next few days. We should know by the end of the week if they will allow us to fix this in the next title update. In this case, there wasn't an iterpreting issue, but we have had that in the past. Unfortunatly do to...

Just to clarify it's not free, it's actually quite expensive to submit to Microsoft. And while the TCRs may seem straight forward, sometimes they are up for interpretation, and we end up failing a submission because they intepret it differently. Between the functional, compliance and tcr...

I'm not sure a petition would help if there was a way to do one. If anything it might anger someone at Microsoft and make it worse for us.

I believe I mentioned before how they fail us for dumb reasons. The stuff they find blows our minds sometimes. I'm glad to hear actual Gamers never think to do the things they test. The problem we have is we never think to test ridiculous stuff like this, because it would never dawn on us...

I just wanted to verify this is the case. Sorry for all your disappointment, trust me that I share it with you. I don't think I've ever been so frustrated in over 12 years of game development. We're working to see if they will waive the issue and let us fix it in the next release. Just so...

3D requires rendering the scene twice using 2 cameras. One for each eye. So it's not quite copying the scene from left to right. But it's also not overly complicated. The biggest problem is you then have to do twice the rendering in the same amount of time (60fps). From what I've read on...

Xbox 360 does have post processing, it just uses a different method than PS3. Both are able to do the post processing and rendering in the same frame, so there isn't any delay or lag from it. We just use bloom type post processing to make the lamps look like they glow. Aside from the TV...

Not yet. The lighting looks really good on the Xbox version without that modification. They matched the lighting pretty close on both platforms without it.

Xbox is worldwide, since Microsoft doesn't have separate game divisions for each region. Sony and Nintendo have companies for each region. Sony has SCEA (Sony Computer Entertainment America) for north american releases, and SCEE (Sony Computer Entertainment Europe) for Europe. And SCEJ for...

I can't remember now. The flipper physics update with live catch and other special moves hasn't been put in for any tables yet.

Since Microsoft limits our Title Update size, fixes to the original 4 tables are a separate "optional" download. Although I believe any pinball fan would download them, cause it improves visuals and fixes bugs. We weren't allowed to make this download mandatory. After downloading the title...

Sinistar did you mean no Orange on PS3 version, or in real life?

Possible, but the lighting engine needs an update first. I'm not sure where that's at. I know there is orange on the Xbox, I'm wondering if the orange lighting has a bug so it shows up white/black on PS3. I'll have someone check into it in the office tomorrow.

You'll need the title update for the DLC to work anyway, so you'll get that first (hopefully same day) The DLC contains achievements for the new tables (get a top 5 local high score). Since we are limited in how many achievements we can add per quarter (Microsoft rule), we could only put in...
