Xbox 360 Indie Games

First of all, I would like to say that I accidentally forgot to post yesterday, and I'll probably be posting twice tomorrow to make up for it. Today's post is going to be about Indie games, games made by the Xbox 360 community rated by the community for the community. I'll be talking about what exactly they are, and whether they're worth buying. Well, here goes!

Indie games are games that are made by the community as I said in the first paragraph, they are similar to minigames because they don't come with a variety of modes or proper online gameplay. These games aren't expensive, but most of the time the games will end up being played once or twice, but then they'll end up rotting with all the demos. Indie games are, as I said  rated by the community, but the ratings are often useless because they're on a scale from one to three which honestly isn't very detailed. There are some Indie games worth buying, and those are mostly on the top rated or top downloaded lists. In my opinion you should only buy an Indie game if:
  •  You aren't saving Microsoft points to buy anything.
  • You have read the description and ratings of the game (you should also play the demo for it and look at the picture gallery).
  • You really don't have anything better to do at the moment.
To sum it all up: Buy Indie games only if you're going to actually play them, with an example of one I play often being I MA3D A GAME W1TH Z0MB1ES!!! (Best. Spelling. Ever!). And, yeah, that's all for today, see ya tomorrow (hopefully)!
