The ID@Xbox program is very prohibitive. The effort is not worth the reward for the indie developers.
For consoles, they're targeting PS4, WiiU, and Vita. If you want indie - go there.
I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

yeah, outlast doesn't really look like my thing but don't starve looks amazeballz to me. ...and with dead nation coming next month there certainly are a lot of horror games represented. really glad i was able to secure them though cause I, like you, don't have a ps4 yet. with infamous so close now i'll probably pick up the next one i see though.

That was a genious move from Sony, I don´t even know if it was intentional or what, but being able to secure the games before getting the console is a fantastic leverage to eventually buying. I always think to myself: "Well, I already have 3 games for it..."

yeah well,.. didn't work out so well for vita.
..but yeah, i have 1. flower 2. Outlast 3. Don't Starve 4. Resogun 5. Sound Shapes already and then of course ftp games like warframe. really hard not to get a ps4 asap. i'm just trying to finish up my backlog. i have quite a few still and i'm saving TLoU for my last ps3 games before moving over.

You gotta be kidding me. Turn off your PC and GO play The Last of Us right now! What a blasphemy, having The Last of Us and not playing it!

it's my cherry for the top of my last generation! something to be savored when all the other tripe has been digested!
i'm on bioshock infinate and brothers atm. brothers is fun so far but i'm not really digging bioshock,.. might throw that one down if it doesn't pick up really soon. still have dead space 2. intented to get batman arkham city which with today's announcement i feel really compelled to go get. and then some ps+ freebies that seem interesting in metro last light and XCOM. ...all before march 21st when infamous blows me away. :P
People saying xone has better launch window exclusives completely ignore all the great PS4 indie titles. Sure they're on PC but in terms of consoles PS4 has the best games already. Outlast was amazing, Resogun is somehow incredibly addicting, even Contrast was worth a play through. There's nothing similar on xone

Oh, Bioshock Infinite was really bad, but XCom was a blast! Played so much. Gotta love PS PLUS!

i'll take your word on that than. it started out pretty bad so this is as good a reason as any not to go back to it.

I meant Xcom was awesome on PS3 and Bioshock Infinite was really bad, I could not play it.
