Reasonable on 30 December 2011
Sounds like this must have been a similar deal to the first Mass Effect - MS fund/champion for 360 first then PC release. I doubt at the time MS figured it was going to take so long to release though.
I'm still curious why Remedy are self publishing vs MS though - that still seems odd. I can't figure if MS don't want to push the IP on PC but don't want to clash with Remedy who clearly do want it on PC, or whether Remedy are unhappy with MS to some degree but (given MS did fund the IP) don't want to talk about it and have agreed some level of partial IP control.
It's an odd one.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
