I am pretty sure they goofed on the PlayXBLA wording of when the release was going to happen.

The person writing it is presumably in the United States and said "Tomorrow" meaning Friday, but in the same sentence said 2AM UTC, which would mean Thursday for us here in the USA.

All update for XBLA are done on Wednesday and Friday just like the release of the game and the last update.

My expectation is that tomorrow, Friday, evening (9pm CST / -6 UTC) when it is 2AM on Saturday UTC... the update will be available.

Well if that is the case then I am going to be going to bed sad and that is no good for dreaming.

I still don't understand why the playxbl site seems to be releasing info first. Every time there's so new info it seems to be a link to that site.

I do not like this.
I do not like waiting either.

Because playxbla.com is an official Microsoft resource (their about page):

About PlayXBLA

Xbox Live Arcade is home to some of the best and most important games on the planet. And Microsoft Studios is proud to have been able to work with so many great independent development studios to help ship some of the defining games of this generation – Limbo, Castle Crashers, Pinball FX 2,Tentacles and the list goes on (and on!).
We’ve got a lot more planned too! We heard the community asking for a central location to learn about the Xbox LIVE Arcade games we publish from Microsoft Studios, and we’re proud to bring you PlayXBLA.com. We’re committed to being a great source of information about Studios’ games for Xbox360 and Windows Phone.
While our focus are the games we publish at Microsoft Studios, the reality is we love lots of games on XBLA and WP, so don’t be surprised if you find us talking about great games from other publishers once in a while!

I'd rather pay a measly $5, and not have to reset stats and saves every month.




This is so not cool, I've been sitting, for hours, in front of my TV with the shakes, rocking back and forth as I launch Minecraft over and over and over and over again. o________o
