Give the Gift of Indie Games This Year [Xmas List]

DIYgamer.com writes: "Chances are that you, reading this site right now, have more than a few friends who'd also be considered gamers. Chances are also considerably high that at least a few of these friends are not avid indie gamers. Let's face it, most Call of Duty-ing, Halo-ers just aren't that into indie games. Not because they vehemently hate them or anything, but, more realistically, because nobody has bothered to show them the world of gaming that exists underneath all the mainstream marketing glitz that simply over-powers everything else. But that's where you come in...

With Christmas just about on top of us, there's probably still a lot of shopping to do in between now and then and, while you may be struggling with some of your game-loving friends, we've got your back as we introduce you to our favorite picks for this year's Christmas. Plus, you can take solace in knowing that your friend/family member probably won't already have this game or buy it as an impulse purchase while they're out doing their own holiday shopping."

Great list - Just started playing Osmos this past weekend and it's a really fantastic game.

Yeah, Osmos is rad. I find it to be one of the most relaxing games... almost too relaxing...

It’s time to announce the July Games with Gold lineup! On the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, capture photos of the wondrous Beasts of Maravilla Island, and survive being stranded on a desolate moon base in Relicta. And for our classic lineup via Backward Compatibility, build and ride rollercoasters in Thrillville: Off the Rails, […]

Yawn.... I will say torchlight is fun, but i have that on my steamdeck. Relicta is also on PS+ Extra and looks like it would make a cool VR game. No PSVR support though.

VenomUK659d ago

@Darthv72 How did you shift this story about the Xbox Games with Gold lineup into a negative about PSVR not supporting one of the games?! 🤣

crazyCoconuts659d ago

It's pretty impressive actually.

darthv72659d ago (Edited 659d ago )

Hmm... that is funny. I see it more as a negative against XB. Like other games on both, some offer a VR mode for PS and this looked like it should be one of them. Then again it doesnt even offer VR for PC so... ehh.

RedDevils659d ago

That how professional troll at their best work.

ChasterMies659d ago

Why continues reporting this? Who is left that is still interested in Games with Gold?

crazyCoconuts659d ago

I guess if I paid $5/month for this crap I'd still want to know what I got...

Eidolon659d ago

Yeah, be interesting to know. I hardly care because of Game Pass now, still don't mind seeing what we get, but I've come to terms that it's mostly going to be nothing I'll play if have GP.

itsmebryan659d ago

They should get rid of games w gold. With Gamepass I have too many better games to even think about GWG.

crazyCoconuts659d ago

So they've managed to decrease the value you get each month without decreasing revenue by making the games crappier. If they still charged $5/month without giving you ANY games at all, it would open them up to criticism and direct comparisons to PS+ without any way to subjectively spin the message

Crows90658d ago (Edited 658d ago )

It's also part of gamepass ultimate. It's good to see since it directly competes with ps extra

northpaws659d ago

This is beyond bad... kinda shitty move to force all their subscribers to get gamepass.

VersusDMC659d ago

Technically forcing people to move to Gamepass Ultimate. Regular gamepass doesn't include Gold.

Silly gameAr659d ago

I guess that's that value that everyone keeps talking about.

KillBill659d ago

Technically you aren't forced to buy anything. And Xbox Live gold can be bought separately. https://www.xbox.com/en-US/...

KillBill659d ago

What are you talking about you can still buy Xbox Live Gold on its own if you want to. You guys need to stop having conversations about Xbox if you know nothing about it. https://www.xbox.com/en-US/...

Silly gameAr659d ago (Edited 659d ago )

I guess the comments flew right over your head, huh? If GP was such a good value, gold would come with game pass, without having to get the more expensive opinion.

KillBill659d ago

@silly - what? Point is that gold can be had WITHOUT game pass. simple as that. Nothing forcing you to buy game pass.

gamer9658d ago

@ Silly, not sure what you're trying to say, you want game pass ultimate for the price of xbox live gold? That's ridiculous the amount of full price day 1 games you get included in game pass - you don't get that for cheap. Nobody is forced to get game pass, if the value is there you subscribe. if there's a drought in games you unsubscribe like i just did a month ago. Will likely get back on game pass this fall/holiday and into 2023 when the games are flooding in.
