So according to twitter Reverge is deleting posts referring to the 4/11 release date also, according to Twitter Jojo's is coming out on XBLA. I hope that last one's true. If so, RIP P4U

Man... That would be like a gigaton punch in my fucking face straight out of the Easter egg. U_U

I remembered reading this on SRK from Ravidrath.

"And please keep this off the front page until we have officially confirmed and announced it. That will be Monday or Tuesday."

When the official announcement didn't come I knew something was up. I hope it still comes out 4/11, but who knows.

Skullgirls, FFXIII Versus, Last Guardian which first.

I look forward to buying this game when Gearbox picks it up, finishes it, and releases it. Until then, I'm canceling my preorder and putting it towards Persona 4 Arena.

[LegatoB]

"Better than expected" means "the game comes out RIGHT NOW," right? Because otherwise that's false advertising, and I'll call the Better Business Bureau on you. YOU BETTER WATCH OUT

[ponpo]

Someone hire a team of code breakers to eeans ravid's posts.

WHAT??? NO!!!

[darkblade77]

My guess is that the 11th is still set for XBLA, but they don't want to make an official release date announcement without knowing the PSN date for sure, and whatever held that up to begin with is/was still sticking in their craw.

But that latest post from ravi maybe? indicates that the PSN part is done with. idk... I just pray that 4/11 XBLA is still on track.

It feels like this whole debacle has been a "this is why we can't have nice things" episode regarding pre-confirming dates. :(

[TheOGB]

Vice-Versa takes dental care very seriously

And things going better than expected sounds good :D

[Galdelico]

Hahaha, man, come on... :D

"I WARNED YOU ABOUT PRE-CONFIRMED RELEASE DATES BRO!!!
I TOLD YOU DOG!"

"IT KEEPS DISAPPOINTING"

"I TOLD YOU MAN
I TOLD YOU ABOUT RELEASE DATES!"

[Oldschoolgamer]

Jojo on Xbla? Yes, please. Eff Petshop tho. :/

I hope this is still coming out next week. Not that their needs to be a rush, but... I really want to play it. Lol

To me it feels like this whole debacle has a been a "This is why PSN and XBLA suck" episode regarding indie devs.

[darkblade77]

Undoubtedly, yeah. I was following Dungeon Defenders' agonizing path to trying to get a same-week/date multiplat release out for a while, so I had a rough idea of how awful it was... then there was that Blazblue DLC character fiasco a year and a half ago.

But there's one thing those two games(Skullgirls and Dungeon Defenders) seem to share issue-wise that appears to have made releasing the game a PITA, and it isn't the developer or(entirely) the platform.

[alstein]

It would be so much easier to just go PC.

I really don't like how consoles hold stuff back.

[Nyoro SF]

Unfortunately I asked for a Steam version late, so the development on it is late as well... :(

[Hag]

Avatars, yes. MS Gamer Pics... probably not. GamerPics have a limit of 64x64, and there really isn't a lot you can do in that. They won't be live for a while, though - it takes Sony 7-8 WEEKS (that's four times as long as a full game) to approve Avatars, because Japan has to approve them.

Nice. Thanks!

If you guys think this is maddening, imagine being in their shoes.

You barely ever have a developer interact with the community as much as Ravi does, so you might think this project is getting tossed around more than other games ... but the reality is that this happens often,only difference is that Ravi is pretty candid with his conversations with the fan community

Yeah, most indie games aren't as hyped as SG though. The worst part about the delays is that it makes the game harder to reach the expectations, as they keep growing.

Most of my all-time great games I came into them with modest expectations.

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Does Steam let the devs pick their launch date 100%? Or do they have some input?

[Rorshock520]

If the 4/11 release date proves to be false after all of this, I will likely cry and die.

[Penguin nerd]

It's out on PSN next week via the Blogcast.

Here: Just hasn't been posted to the blog yet. They talk about it like 10 minutes in or so.

4/10 for PSN

[SolarPowered]

Ravidrath's image kinda scares me even if it is supposed be lighthearted.

Also, you guys actually got the game working with those controllers? wow lol

Skullgirls, FFXIII Versus, Last Guardian which first.

Maybe XBLA, but yeah...

Yeah, this is far worse for them than it is for us. I hope the ones responsible for these delays and setbacks get their asses whooped when more DD storefronts open up. It really is starting to feel like DD games are second class citizens of the console gaming world...

Just remember that this is a $15 game. If it proves more enjoyable and just as long lasting as one of your favorite titles then you made out like a bandit.

If the 4/11 release date proves to be false after all of this, I will likely cry and die.

I'll make sure to dig you up when the game is released.

Indeed. I remember playing this at PAX East last year.

Excellent... Guess that official announcement is about to hit ground zero then. :D

Good stuff! :D

I've been watching tons of media and reading a bunch about it the past few days after ignoring the game for a long while, but I'm definitely getting it now.

[DiscoShark]

Let's get that OT started! Wooo! 5 days and counting!

[SAB CA]

So The Splatters, World Gone Sour, and Skullgirls all next Tues on XBLA, eh? Capcom just had to release something on the same day as another fighter, eh? (W.G.Sour) Seems like a decent week to premiere for Skullgirls!

Someone really needs to tell MajorNelson to update that "Coming Soon to XBLA" blog post of his, then...

[Ravidrath]

This week has been so dramatic, I seriously have the game publishing equivalent of PTSD.

I keep expecting SOMETHING to happen to blow up the release date, etc. I'm not going to be able to relax until Thursday, I think. :P

[Ferrio]

What gem packs do we get for preordering?

Basically, it's a miracle games are ever finished and certified.

SweetJohnnyCage just announced that ECT4 will also have a Skullgirls tourny with the $500 pot and custom stick. Pretty cool.

Are you ever going to get around to explaining to us what the situation was? I'm actually curious to hear the SG story of dealing with the XBL/PSN approval process. :P

[TreIII]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. I'll be ready and waiting on my PS3 for that download!
