Message: <blockquote data-quote="Franky" data-source="post: 16759">These are the rules of microsoft so there is no need for snivel around. Fact is, if there were no bug microsoft wouldn't have denied it. And since farsight is the developer - farsight is the one to blame. it's quite a simple thing. Also the 4mb rejection - farsights fault - these are existing rules and farsight have to adapt to them.This is something totally different - two pair of shoes. It seems you guys don't understand - you need to get something right - such things have nothing to do with microsoft, this are game bugs - microsoft is not "testing" the game for game bugs - otherwise farsight and other companies could never ever release on xbox360 - for their sloppy developing. What do you think - the guys from microsoft are sitting there an playing through all the games and xbla titles writing down game bugs and sending them to the developers - some kind of free beta-testers for the different companies??? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />  This is NOT their job - Microsoft is just testing if the game works flawlessly with their system, dashboard, .... and this is TOTALLY understandable every serious company would behave like that. If i had such company i would do the same. I wouldn't want someone coming up messing up my work. There have to be rules. Again - Microsoft doesn't care of game bugs - since a badly developed game or game bugs are always falling back to the developer, so Microsoft don't need to care anyway. The Bugs in TPA are falling back on farsight not on microsoft - but windows or other stuff not poping up are falling back on Microsoft not on farsight. So i hope you guys understand. Yes, Microsoft have strict rules - and i don't want it any other way - that's why they are the best. Instead Farsight and other companies should learn a lesson from them.All of you know, if the battery on your controller is out of power - a window pops up saying "please connect a controller" or whatever - right? This is ONE of many quality features of microsoft - so when you put out your memory card during play - (an it has nothing to do with stupidity, it can happen - your kids can pull it out, or you can unintentionally touch it when you walk by, ...) then again a window pops up telling you that something is wrong. and as i said - this is a quality feature, all this things (and even more) are responsible for why the xbox360 (and all the future generations) beats the sh.t out of ps3 and sony.Imagine you sitting at home playing tpa - and your girlfriend, your kids, your dog ... unintentionally touches the memory card and you don't notice it - all of a sudden nothing is working except exit and whatever. You would have NO idea what is going on and after trying a few things you will recognize the loose memory card. Same with the mentioned controller and other stuff.So again, unfortunately the only one to blame is farsight for a sloppy release. There are 1000s of games, dlcs and updates realeased so far with no problems - so it can't be microsofts fault.My friends and i still support farsight after all and we still believe they can do it - but there are rules you have to adapt - otherwise you need to do it again - like in school and life in general.All we can hope for is, that farsight learns something out of this and starts working more carefully. Frankyand one more thing: why always picking on microsoft? they did their job already and a pretty good one - they don't need to prove anything - they brought us the xbox and countless of great games and hours of fun - farsight instead brought you nothing else than 4 buggy tables so far and lots of frustration and let downs - so THEY are in fact the ones who needs to show some results finally.</blockquote>
