Forums - Microsoft - Microsoft: First Xbox One indie games could launch around March 2014

Except for the Below game that looks amazing, there absolutely nothing forward on the Xbox One.

Then there are excellent Arcade titles like Killer Instinct or the Panzer Dragoon.

meanwhile ps4 had 5 ready at launch. i guess 5 months late isn't soo bad considering how long it took MS to take indies seriously.


Already a PS4 comparison? Good job.

OP: Good to hear, I think the first will be Super Time Force.

She's just mad about the lack of quality exclusives.  Best to just skip over and ignore.

I wonder if they will bring over some super popular ones from the 360 or if just going to be all new ones.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

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.

Wait, I thought Xbox fans didn't like indy games? At least they didn't like them around gamescom when Sony was announcing them. I guess their "in" now that are coming to Xbox. Go figure.

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").

Bolded line basically outlines a lot of hypocritical Xbox fans on this site from May on of this year. A lot of people trolled Sony threads over the summer about having indy games on the PS4. Hell, there's even a MS fan with "PS4 - It only does Indy" in his sig on this very site. Oh the irony these days.

Quality exclusives huh?   Like Ryse?  That's your quality exclusive?  Dead Rising 3 is okay I'll give you that but the rest meh. Didn't Killzone SF have a higher meta then KI?  Or Forza 5 which is the same score as a last gen title?  Should we dig a little deeper?  How about the high quality of Crimson Dragon (meta 56) Zoo Tycoon (meta 68) or the ever so popular Fighter Within which is the lowest rated "next gen" X1 exclusive sitting at a meta score of 25!   Now that's some quality to be proud of there!   At last Knack is the only failure on PS4 but hey enjoy those quality exclusives of yours..

Ignoring the double standards that of course exist, times have changed. Indie games are much more popular now with many of them GOTY contendors. Just look at the top 20 selling 360 indie games of 2011.

1. FortressCraft Chapter 1
2. Total Miner: Forge
3. The Impossible Game
4. Avatar Paintball
5. Toy Stunt Bike
6. CastleMiner Z
7. I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES!!!1
8. Avatar Legends
9. CastleMiner
10. Miner Dig Deep
11. Avatar Laser Wars
12. Bird Assassin
13. Voice Changer 360
14. Nuclear Wasteland
15. Avatar Karting
16. Zombie Estate
17. Avatar Drop
18. Baby Maker Extreme 2
19. College Lacrosse 2011
20. The $1 Zombie Game

It should be very obvious why no one cared about these games when comparing exclusives.

X1 has Forza, Killer Instinct and Dead Rising. 1 80's and 2 70's....compared to Killzone, something you should play COD or BF4 instead.

Give credit to where its due. Anybody can name the flops.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
