Being the publisher doesn't mean ownership. Tequila Works might after a year drop it on PC or Xbox.

When sony or nintendo publish a game,it will be exclusive for their machine.Doesn't matter how much port-beg people do.

Microsoft on the other hand...

Microsoft on the other hand, supports PC gaming also.

Nothing wrong with as it is really for the gamers. Most of the time MS let the devs self-publish their (MS's State of Decay as an example) IPs, to further compensate the studios for their work. And port beg is for the petition making crowd, which does not include Xbox gamers.

Sony does also support Personal Computer Gaming; SOE.

This is the original conversation you crashed in:
"Skeetys said:
I thought it was old news that it would also come to PC. I doubt we'll see this on any Microsoft systems ever though. It's possible, but Xbox isn't the best place to try to sell indie games."

It's not about Steam and other platforms, it's about Xbox in general.


So the Xbox is the best place to sell indies because the Xbox is the only place to sell indies if you exclude other platforms/distrabution? 

This whole thing is about you giving MS way more credit then they deserve in this matter... There are better platforms for Indies right now!  Steam and PS4 for example. I was just taking some of your examples you gave and correcting them, the others provided may have seen popularity grow because of live... 

Though Super Meat Boy was another popular game that needed NO help from Live... It was a rather popular flash game on Newgrounds it was rather well known at the time. The original point Skeetys was making is completley valid right now as MS is not the best place to sell indies. 

I don't think English is your first language is it? No trying to denigrate you. But answer me.


It is. However you seem to have nothing more to add as you now have to resort to petty attacks.

It looks like you can't understand that the topic of the conversation between me and the other person was about whether, MS platforms are good for Indie devs to publish on.

The other person clearly is oblivious of the fact that, since the original Xbox, Microsoft been publishing small games and supporting Indie titles.

Microsoft brought bunch of Indie ans small titles to Xbox, before it was a big thing to brag about on consoles. Here's Summer of Arcades to you:

You know what I am done, I am not the one that completely missed the point here. All I did was point out two of your examples and explained that they were popular before live.... YOU said when you gave the examples that the games listed were not popular until they hit Live (go up and read it again, I have done it too many times). MS was great with Indies last gen, and as I also mentioned they are not doing so well this gen and that kinda when with the original point made by Skeetys. You then resorted to childish attacks...Sorry sir, but comprehension is not an issue I am having but something you seem to be wrestling with at the moment. Good day.
