"Before XBLIG, and even after, there has yet to be an easy avenue for independent devs to get work released without going through a closed platform or dealing with a publisher."

Interesting that that they included this line in the article, as it was critical of Microsoft along with everyone else.

Also, this article appears to be sheer spin. The things he is quoted as saying are not the same as what is paraphrased, not by a long shot. He said that the indie scene on consoles would not exist as it does today without XLA and that no one else has been as successful. He said nothing about quality or maturity or any of the other stuff people are making up.

Horrible, tabloid level article.
