I imagine Steam has a bigger market for indie games. I mean people don't buy HD consoles to play casual indie crap.

If working with MS is so damn difficult than maybe they should stop working with MS. But they rather just take the money and act like a bunch of babies.

Indie developers should just be glad MS is giving them an opportunity to make some money and marketing their software to console gamers. I don't see Nintendo and Sony doing a whole lot for indie studios either. From my understanding Sony showed no interest in Super Meat Boy.

dood, PC indie games are not casual crap lol, they are pretty seriously awesome a lot of times and some of the best games you can get this gen. You also can't really tell me that you think Castle Crashers was crap casual, that game is as hard on as it gets.

Alright, you got me. Not every indie game is crap... but there are very few notable titles. For the record, casual games don't have to be easy to be considered casual.
