I'll welcome them... indy games sometimes can go up agains't big AAA franchisesand. Where I study people begin to talk about MS proposition about Unity and the ability to turn your X1 into a dev kit. People also talk about Kinect a lot since it's still rather new and a lot of different concept can be made with the device.

What Xbox fans don't like indy games? Last gen arcade and indy games were a huge part of 360 library way more than PS3 could ever dream of... I remember how Sony fans kept downplaying 360 exclusive list because a bunch of them were arcade, indy or kinect games. Every lists they made they had to exclude indy games (to fit their agendas) just because PS3 didn,t have anything compelling on that front. Now all of a sudden indy games are super iimportant to Sony fans (because it fits their agends and with MS stance earlier this year it gives them more "fuel").
