If anyone already read this post, it has had a very positive effect and Microsoft have graciously decided work with us to iron out the problems and get us past this incident.
With a sense of fair play, I’m putting my grumpiness on hiatus and deleting the juicy bits. Which was all of it, sorry.
Just a note, after this blog was submitted to us, Paul pulled this post from his blog, which was the original source, and he said this:

Paul might be back around to delete this post as well. In any case, go buy Great Big War Game--it's really good.
Thanks for considering us to be a "corporate" TC. :)
Yeah you called it Kris. At the risk of looking like a sell out, MS have been in touch and smoothed out practically all our issues in one hit, so it's bad form to leave a post their moaning at them. At least it got something happening.
Haha, this isn't selling out--you guys spent thousands of dollars to bring the game to Microsoft's platform. Speaking out made a difference. Maybe some people should learn the power of speaking up, rather than resenting it.
