    As per a press release on their website, Super Giant Games has partnered with Warner Bros. to get the game out on XBLA this summer and on the PC by the end of 2011.  Seeing as we've been granted a more intimate look at how this game has come along with the "Building the Bastion" series on Giant Bomb, how excited are y'all to finally know that the game has release window, albeit not a specific date.  This is a game I've really been looking forward to playing and I was just wondering if that excitement has been resonating through the rest of you guys?

    To be honest, I don't know what to think about the game yet. I guess when it's release nears, I will get a better idea of what it's like. (I've seen the Building a Bastion videos ... but still...)

    Sounds like it'll be part of some XBLA promotion, Summer of Arcade probably, since it's not coming out on PSN simultaneously. Really excited for it though.

    That's great for Greg Kasavin and the other people at SGG! I hope WB promotes the be-Jesus out of Bastion!

    Same thing with Torchlight.
     
    You'd probably be better off just grabbing the PC version at the end of the summer. It doesn't look too demanding just like Torchlight

    @brownsfantb: Actually, I suspect the lack of PSN is the fact that it's tiny team worling out of a living room (and recording audio in a closet!) and so you have to focus your efforts on one thing at a time (hence the later PC release)... Let's go to the tweet (via @SupergiantGames): 
     
    "We'll be on PC later this year as well. And beyond that, who knows?"
    "Sorry man. We're six dudes and we need to make our choices carefully else we spread too thin and quality suffers." (Hey, I guessed right!)
    (Responding to a tweet about pushing WB to push for a Summer of Arcade slot): "The more MS hears that message from people other than us, the better our chances, we figure. Appreciate the thought!"
    (Responding to "So it's not IMPOSSIBLE that Bastion will show up on PSN, right? Super Meat Boy impossible, I mean."): "Nothing is impossible! Bear with us, we just need to take this stuff one at a time to make sure it meets our standard."

    @OldGuy:  Sure, it hasn't officially been made part of the Summer of Arcade but I've got to think Microsoft will do it. Bastion already has a ton of buzz and it's already an XBLA exclusive, at least at first.
