Phil Fish's hypocrisy is hilarious. He needs to learn to shut up.

He says it's a console only game because you can't get a 'saturday morning cartoon, comfy couch experience' on PCs, and that Super Meat Boy's success on Steam over XBLA means nothing to him because it's 'not about the revenue'. Then we get a press release whining about how on Steam this wouldn't even be a problem, and that they don't want to pay the patch money for fixing a BROKEN game. What happened to not caring about revenue? I'm not excusing Microsoft's bullshit policy but god damn, all he does is shit on other people and pass off the blame. 

 

At least the Japanese games I play aren't broken, eh Polytron. 

lol good points all of them.

I am actually surprised MS charges so much for a patch, that's pretty steep pricing. Tens of thousands of dollars for just a patch? Imagine what they might charge for a game to be uploaded on their servers.

 also sony charge for patch  http://www.neoseeker.com/news/18366-double-fine-laments-40k-console-software-patches-sees-opportunities-for-indies-elsewhere/  

I heard at a time that PSN charged for patches and XBL didn't, because XBL had those XBL subscriptions. I guess they were wrong whoever said it.
