I know you are all waiting for more detailed information and we hope to get to that soon, but we just announced the worldwide publishing of a boxed Greed Corp version for PC in a partnership with The Games Company.
You can see the post on the main site for some more information. Details will soon follow.
A couple of things are now in the hands of the retail version's publisher, which also affect the process of the downloadable version. As soon as I have a confirmed date, I'll post it immediately.
No, I'm afraid not.

I've been following the PC release since I saw Greed Corp reviewed on G4. "Coming soon" for the PC was a bit of a lie. Months is not "soon." "By the time you've forgotten it exists, it will be ready for the PC" is more like it. There are only two weeks left of summer vacation and no strong sign of a PC release :(.

What a coincidence, I just wanted to post the same thing as AyeKorombos. I check the website and forums from time to time since before the release on console. It has been for months now that the "Coming Soon" message has unchanged. There is absolutely nowhere for any PC news to be found of the game. As if the game is just forgotten, we get messages for releases in Japan and discounts, but where is the PC version?
This is just not a way for a group of enthusiasts of this game to be treated. Communication is a big part of marketing and promotion, and a lot of small indie-devs are great at it. Too bad you guys fail at it, and I feel a bit ripped off.
Sorry, it had to be said.

Same as the above two. considering you guys are indie, Im frankly amazed you dont make better use of twitter and rss to keep potential customers updated. the longer you keep between the release of the XBLA version and the pc version, the less you get to benefit from any positive press the XBLA version recieved. But then, you know this, right? you're not stupid guys. there has to be some sort of reason that for all intents and purposes, there's nobody home here.
you counter this by communicating with your fanbase, keeping them in the loop. There's No Mac version. ok, why not? "no" isnt really a valid answer. "no, but it'll work with dualbooting, or No, but you'll be fine with an emulator" is more helpful. even the more-positive but entirely laden with bs "we have no plans for that at this time" is more friendly.
Update us. Tell us you're still waiting to here back from the publisher, or that code is in a final review process. if you really dont have anything new to add, post concept art for new mistbound games. keep us drawn in. Throw out a poll asking us what direction you'd like us to take the game in. you dont have to listen to the results, but you DO have to engage with your potential clientbase if you expect to make sales.
Right now you're failing at PR. the sad part is that you're an indie Dev and nobody expects much, but you still cant be bothered. Get with the program.
