Jim Cordeira Writes:
"The Last Guy is exactly why I love digitally downloadable games. Interesting games that otherwise wouldn't see the light of day at retail, still have the opportunity to grab everyone's attention for a fraction of the price. While most PSN, XBLA, and WiiWare games may not exactly be the most visually complex, they can sometimes provide just as much gameplay and thrills as full priced, retail-style titles. The Last Guy for the PlayStation 3, via the PlayStation Network, is proof of that.
The Last Guy pretends to take itself seriously. "Set some time in the 21st century, a mysterious purple ray hits Earth, turning anyone outside and touched by the light into a zombie. With zombies roaming the streets, unaffected people lucky enough to have been inside a building when the ray hit are anxiously holding their collective breath for someone to rescue them. As the Last Guy, the player is the survivors' last hope to survive this global crisis."

So I thought it would be great if I could share some of my favourite experiences for each platform. Today we're taking a look at the PlayStation 3, which has offered some great experiences via the PSN store.
So here's 10 Essential PSN titles for you to grab today!
Braid, flOw, Everyday Shooter, Detuned., Linger in Shadows, Limbo, Where is My Heart? and Closure.
These are some of the best games PSN has to offer. They happen to be made by indie developers and were not mentioned in the article. I strongly recomend atleast a google or youtube search.
Thanks for your time.
I didn't know Double Fine was considered "indie". What are the stipulations for being "indie" anyway?
Great list though.
Back to The Future series... Indie... Since when? It's a Telltale game, for god sake.
