The channel nobody takes very seriously due to 99% of it being dire.Wake up MS and promote better the really good amongst all this. MS and the community should also come together a bit more on the idea that truly pointless worthless trash software shouldn't pass review .xbla in fairness also has it's fair share of forgettable duffers released regularly

Some great stuff on here - i own around 10 Indie games - but the better of games stand less of a chance thanks to most of the other sh!te.No different i guess than how the Wii struggles this way but it's actually worse on xbox indie

If you can be bothered to research for games of worth on indie then you will eventually find genuinely excellent ones here, but lets be honest, most dickheads using xbox don't even know about xbla, let alone the indie channel

And to think it really could have been the Youtube of games this way

Both the fault of community for making 99% of the bollocks and a failure from MS that allows too much easy access to so called game designers that release these abominations. Talent in the form of those that know the art of programming thrown away on useless trashy games that waste everybodies time

That said, if you don't ever visit the indie channel every so often, you will genuinely miss out on the occasional gem here

Also worth noting that Dragon Forge is 100% not worth any of your money.My personal opinion of course but unless the full game offers precisely 100,000 times more fun than i had from the trial, i can't see it.Excellent graphics though on your dragon

Paper Mario: The Origami King Review - Video Chums

Video Chums: Paper Mario: The Origami King is a hilarious game with a ton of variety in its world and a clever new puzzle-based battle system. There's so much fun to be had that if you don't already own a Switch, this will act as a fantastic reason to go out and get one.

You forgot to add "thank God" at the end of the headline.

tomr29922523d ago

Indeed... Praise the Lord!

V0MIT_M0NSTER2523d ago

So glad that they won't mess with Banjo anymore.

-Foxtrot2522d ago

So you wouldn't want a proper Banjo-Threeie, Jade Empire or Kameo 2...really?

AZRoboto2522d ago

Or Crimson Skies. That was the shiz

FallenAngel19842523d ago

It's a shame we can't get another Banjo-Kazooie game

-Foxtrot2522d ago

Literally one that's called Banjo-Threeie and they start the game with Kazooie waking up in distress telling Banjo of a hardly nightmare while recapping Nuts and Bolts.

PhoenixUp2523d ago

Microsoft never could maintain a longrunning decent 3D platformers series of their own

AZRoboto2522d ago

I don't think "longrunning" is really necessary... Isn't Blinx the only one that got a sequel?

darthv722522d ago

Blinx needs to return if at least to show up Bubsy.

ninsigma2522d ago

Not sure if it was Xbox only back in the day but I'd love a current gen jet set radio!

Paytaa2522d ago

Jet Set Radio Future was only on Xbox. Fantastic game. Even better than Jet Set Radio for the Dreamcast in my opinion. Such a good soundtrack too

ninsigma2522d ago

Game was beast and deserves to come back on current gen. And hell yeah plus one for that soundtrack!
