I'm in the same (but kind of opposite) boat. I see the XO as pretty much everything I want in a multi-purpose console, however, the only games I really play on the Xbox are Minecraft and Braid, which I assume would be excluded here (welcome to be proven wrong).
Regardless, the Indie games tend to be the ones I gravitate to, for no good reason I can determine, so that's a pretty damning data point to me at least.
- OmarIsmail 13y agoBoth Minecraft and Braid type games will also launch on the XO since both games had a publishing deal (both under Microsoft actually).
- chc 13y agoIf one big player in the last generation had welcomed indie devs, it is likely that games like Minecraft and Braid would have been exclusive to their platform. As it was, Microsoft was more open by offering publishing deals. They needed publishing deals in the current generation because there was no other option.
