Any Indie game can be played offline.

Thing is, you can only play them offline in the console you first purchased it. If you moved into a new Xbox, yet downloaded the game again, the only way the console has to confirm you're indeed the person which owns that game is by being connected. If not, the game turns into a trial mode instead.

You can move your purchased rights into any Xbox console, though. So just do it, and next time you turn the thing on, you can play Indie's offline.

Really ?
I can't even start the trial mode offline for any XBLIG.


No. Screw what I've just said. I misunderstood this was Arcade, not Indie.

 

Indie games can only be played online, sorry.

Yep, indie games.  That is the issue.  I had thought maybe I saw something.  So, you are seeing Microsoft implementing what is being talked about for the next XBox console already.  Bluntly, it sucks.

From what i know you can play it offline after start the game,no 3 mins rule here

Btw they already did that long time,don't think it related always-on,especially most Xbox Live countries can't even buy indie games
