Good Find.

That game sounds pretty cool.  I've never heard of it before.  And it's not that far away, either -- two weeks only.

lol  I thought at first it was the same Talisman from PopCap, or whoever.  You can find it on Zone.com, MSN's gaming site.  You move tiles around to connect stuff.  It's weird.

I heard it might have been

I heard it might have been cancelled, but after seeing the new release date, i'm optimistic.

Release Date

I hate to be the one pointing this out but the game's release date of June 1st is a Sunday and all of the upcoming XBLA games listed on MetaCritic.com have a June 1st release date.

Oh, wow, I didn't even think about that.  That sucks.  So who knows when they're really coming out?  Maybe the developers themselves have dates?  Time to do some digging.  lol

June 1st is a generic date used by a lot of game magazines (and others) for Q2 to Q3 (aka Summer) release.

It is like November 1st being listed for Q4 (Christmas) release even though most don't hit until the middle to end of the month.

These are general sales quarters (basicaly calender). Fiscal quarters are specific to any given company.

I read somewhere (maybe

I read somewhere (maybe here, I don't know) that Capcom was not very happy with the work of Big Rooster on the game and that the game is currently being completely redesigned.

 It could also mean that the game has been cancelled, but Capcom said that they are still planning on releasing it.

As far as I remember
