[quote name='Nelo Ice']was just about to post that :lol:
dust is going to be fucking amazing[/QUOTE]

Being a "Creators Club" member, I've already had the chance to playtest this one on my Xbox! :) Dean's work is amazing. Truly professional work. And as much as everyone goes on about his artwork, it blows me away that someone who hasn't programmed for 20 years or so (since the TI-99/4A which was my first home computer) can come out and even program a game like that. He did everything but the music. For him to win it all, so amazing.

BTW, Duality ZF came 7th... so close to making PAX! Here's the top 20 (before the voting at PAX picked the true winners):

No definite date, but it will be pretty soon. XBLIG is going to take off with all these amazing entries coming to the plate.

hopefully ratings will help spur sales in the right direction so ppl can get the good indie games for ludicrously cheap prices :D
 
Lorne Lanning just confirmed that Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee and Stranger's Wrath will both be coming to PC this year, via digital distribution, available in a package of all four games called "The Oddbox":

He first mentioned the possibility of PC ports of Munch and Stranger about a year ago, but I didn't think that it would actually happen. This is fuckin' AWESOME. Even though these will surely be straight ports, graphically, they should look really great at higher resolutions, especially Stranger. The only significant additions I could hope for would be proper widescreen support, and for the FMV to be remastered in HD.
 
as the title says: support indie games by buying this game...

either that or just buy any game from any indy you feel deserves it.


been so busy I havent had time for much, but oddly that has helped me be more on one end of indie gaming more now: the iphone/itouch indie games.

out of all the commercial platforms, currently the strongest one has to be on the iphone/itouch even if not profitable. XBLA use to be the strongest, but has sagged in the wrong direction lately even with indie games now, most not as good.

though this release on XBL Indie Games is the best so far:
