Steam Users' Forums - View Single Post - Please Valve, do you have any whimper of news on the xbox 360 updates?

Email my friend x texas2cali x got from Kerry recently:
"So sorry for the delayed reply - it was my fault, your email somehow slipped past me.

My ballpark date would be summer. Of course, it's mid-July right now, so let's say late summer. At the moment, it's all about balancing resources between finishing "Left 4 Dead", which is a huge release for us this fall, and also coordinating with the PC updates for TF2 so we can put together a solid download with as much content as possible.

We will not be putting the new weapons on the Xbox 360 - at least not now. We would want to wait until all of the classes have been finished, and even then it looks like the code patch for all those changes would just be too large to fit within the limits for a downloadable update.

We're glad you're enjoying TF2 so much, and hope that when you do get the new maps you'll find them just as fun. Goldrush is my favorite now, so I'm eager to get to play it on my Xbox 360 at home.

Best,

Kerry Davis
