TPA to Return to XBox 360

[utblick]

Can you give a timeframe of when Xbox 360 table and update will be available?
The Pinball Arcade As soon as possible, we're hoping to have it out this month if possible (it may not be)

Please show a little respect, they've been caught in bankruptcy court for years now and have managed to resubmit to MS recently. NOTE: still, you're joke is a bit funny.

Gigabomber, yes from Facebook.

and
The Pinball Arcade No dates yet, but they're progressing nicely... the Xbox one version is a bit further along than the 360 version at the moment, but now that we're just about done with Dracula we'll be able to focus more efforts on the 360 version

So that means the old reliable 360 will go yet another calender year without Pinball Arcade DLC (judging by FarSight's admission that they have not been "able to focus more efforts on the 360 version", despite the fact that the 360 was their prime development platform for two seasons and FarSight previously announced that content was submitted to M$ back in April.

And worse still, due to the nonsensical deal FarSight signed with M$, this is going to further delay DLC for Playstation platforms. I had previously bought a PS4 mainly for TPA because of what happened to the 360 (then my main platform), only to find out that DLC for the PS4 is now being stalled by Xbox delays.

While I still support the PC version of TPA, (hopefully Steam will still offer the season 4 pass-Day one purchase for me), I cannot find any rationale for supporting any console version.

I've just looked up that console. It's nice that they're offering such an alternative. Me personally, I would prefer to just get a new computer for the same price (maybe less) than their most "future proof" model. Not too sure how it would stack up against Microsoft/Sony consoles in terms of performance, but blows both out of the water with game selection. Thanks for sharing the info!

no worries !!!

I made an Xbox 360 build for submission, our QA found a bunch of bugs. I've been going through fixing those bugs in between each table release.

As soon as we get a build that we're happy with we will submit it to Microsoft.

I don't want to give a timeframe because if we miss it then we just get more complaints. I thought I had a good build months ago, and then was told by Microsoft I couldn't do something the way I intended and had to do a large rewrite.

Thanks for the update, Mike. Pretty safe to say all the nashing (sp?) of teeth is from the frustration built up from the whole xbox thing, it definitely grates on me (being a 360 owner) but thankfully I also have the pc. Just have to hope it won't be long until submission to MS and it can get through the cert process quickly.

You keep all your purchases and your high scores, goals, achievements, etc.

Sounds great Mike
Hope that you submit to MS very soon, I'm sure it would help the AF Kickstarter.

Definitely.

And if possible, have a blurb on the 360's dashboard telling all about the return of TPA along with the KS.

I don't think that will be necessary.

(A)-After less than a week-the TAF KS is halfway there!
(B)-The 360 version hasn't been submitted (or even pre-submitted)-KS should be done by then.

There is zero chance MS would ever promote any Kickstarter on the dashboard.

Any chance we get this in October?

I'd say Xbone, maybe. 360, probably not.

Just a guess, as they've talked about Xbone being in certification, and 360 needing to be cleaned up a bit.
