Indie Gaming on the XBox 360

Posted by Zonk on from the not-just-halo dept.

cyrus_zuo writes "Game Tunnel took a look at some of the indie games that will be available when the Xbox 360 launches (through Xbox live). They've posted a summary that breaks down what people can expect from the oft ignored indie side of gaming, in addition to taking a quick shot at HD, calling it a 'marketing term that people have sold out to.'"

    The author provided short reviews of a few indie games that will be available on the 360 at launch. These are ports from PC Games.

    He also mentioned that most computer monitors have higher def than HD.

    I didn't really see anything about what to expect from indie developers on the 360, except ports of successful indie PC games. Even so, there's potential for indie games to make a bigger splash than I would have thought in the console market.
