Didn't xbox used to be the place to go for indies? what changed....


Nothing has changed.  MSFT often times searches for arcade titles and publishes them. 

I find it crazy that this has even been a complaint among "supposed fans"as of lately when MSFT has been known for bringing some of the biggest arcade games to X360 first or completely exclusive including.

Castle Crashers
Trials
BattleBlock Theater
Minecraft
Elysian Tales
Braid
Bastion
FEZ
Geometry Wars
Trials Evolution
Shadow Complex
Geometry Wars 2
Terraria
Max: The Curse of Brotherhood
Crimson Dragon
REZ
Hydro Thunder Hurricane
State if Decay
Hexic HD
Happy Wars
Limbo
Splosion Man
Ms Splosion Man
Toy Soldiers
Maw
Deadlight

And this list goes on.  All these games has been exclusive or timed exclusives as far as i am aware.  I find it odd that XBLA has been the biggest digital store on consoles and known for bringing the biggest games excluding a few, yet "Supposed Fans" are complaining.  Now I understand indie developers complaining, but not fans because you guys have got a ton from XBLA this gen and that is because they go out and search for talent.

that is a great list.

...now put release dates on each of those titles.  i think you'll find a worriesome trend emerging.

Are you implying that the software release schedule for the 360, particularly in downloadable-only arcade titles, has been thinning out recently as M$ prepares to make the transition to the next-generation with the release of their new console?

OMG, SAY IT AIN'T SO!!!
