[QUOTE="PiN WiZ, post: 58599, member: 31"] Figured I'd throw something out there as well, but take this with a grain of salt. Everyone has been wondering who FarSight's new publisher is and all signs point to Microsoft Game Studios. Late last year, FarSight announced that they had found a new publisher and were in the final stages of finalizing the contract...which in my opinion, included terms that FarSight would release The Pinball Arcade on the Windows 8 Marketplace which is why it was announced out of nowhere in my opinion. Also, FarSight was asked by their new publisher not to announce their partnership just yet which may be a safeguard for Microsoft to pull out of the deal if any of their previously agreed upon terms were not met. Lastly, FarSight recently stated the following on their latest ST:TNG Kickstarter Update : "We are currently seeking bankruptcy court approval to transfer the game to a different publisher, and [B]we will release[/B] Star Trek: The Next Generation on the Xbox 360 [B]as soon as that happens[/B]." Release of new content on XBLA immediately after publishing rights have been transferred over to their new publisher without a 4-6 week long approval process could only be made possible by one publisher and one publisher only...Microsoft Game Studios. Again, this is just my two cents and this post is meant to be taken with a grain of salt. [/QUOTE]
