Latest NEWS And INFORMATION On FarSight Studios' The Pinball Arcade

[Nik Barbour]

This thread could probably do with a sticky putting on it!
PinWiz if / when you update the info, could you add an extra reply on the end of this thread saying "post 1 updated xx/xx/xx xx:xx", as i've got an automatic email notification subscription on this thread, problem is it dosn't ping when you update an existing thread, only when a new one is added!
Thanks.

Did they say anything in regards to a European release on PSN? April 10th is obviously the US date.

Farsight confirmed TAXI this morning.

Farsight really need to look at the way they release information, posting important information in a comment to someones question posted on facebook 11 hours ago is not the way to do it. They need to start making their own posts more often rather than in comments. I've been scouring this site and facebook for days now but completely missed that.

I completely agree! I check their Facebook page a few times a day and hardly ever see ANYTHING from them... then I read news on the forum about announcements they made in response to somebody, somewhere. Terrible system for delivering news to fans

 

[HOW]

Initially they were much better at making actual post themselves.
Hopefully this'll resume...

There's only about half a dozen of them, and they must be flat out. We must be patient! It's hard though, I can't wait!!

@Nik Barbour...I'll make sure I post a reply when I update information from now on.

@Jucksalbe...FarSight stated that releases should happen simultaneously across all regions. I have updated the first post with this information.

Not what we wanted to hear.

Sorry, I want to provide everyone with the most accurate information possible, but I feel your pain.

Just checked, Major Nelson's tweet is still there.....I don't see how anything's changed since this morning?

That tweet has been deleted...clear your cache and Major Nelson is not the only reference I have.

Can you share your references?

 

[Jeff Strong]

Arghhh, this is a real bummer..... :/

Surely if it was out on Wednesday FarSight would have made an offical announcment by now

 

[PiN WiZ]

Updated Xbox 360 release date with more information.

This news is not so fantastic.

Did you call FarSight and Microsoft about the delayed release?

I only ask since I still see the date as March 28th. With not much news about the game, FarSight not talking about the release, and Major Nelson deleting his tweet, it seems inevitable this game will be delayed for at least a week or two. I speculate it could (and should) be released before the "Xbox Live Arcade Next" block, which starts on April 18th.

BTW, the European rating system (PEGI) just rated this game several hours ago.

Like I said before, don't read too much into the date posted on Xbox LIVE since it has inaccurate information and hasn't been updated since it was posted. FarSight is working vigorously with Microsoft to try and get The Pinball Arcade released as soon as possible.
