Favorite XBL Indie Games

[jcalder8]

I'm always overwhelmed by the options with Indie games on XBL.

I have bought a few that I'm a fan of:
NLL 11
BloodyCheckers
Aban Hawkins & the 1000 SPIKES

So what are some other ones that I am missing out on?

I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES!!!1
Gerbil Physics

I enjoyed both of those. ha

Cthulhu Saves the World and Breath of Death VII are pretty fun classic-style RPGs.

Just found this one: Magic Racing GP 2

It's like a modern Super Sprint and for only a buck it's a steal!

You guys got bot the ones I wanted to mention: I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES!!1 and Cthulhu Saves The World. (Note: The guys that did Cthulhu are the ones making the next Penny Arcade game and it looks great.)

Don't have a 360, personally, but I've heard lots of love for both Bastion and Fez (think they're both exclusive to XBLA).

On the PS3, Journey, & Flower are both pretty cool (& by the same company).

I also liked Costume Quest & Stacking on the PS3 (...but those 2 may well be available on both consoles).

Vandal Hearts: Flames of Judgement was (imo) pretty "meh" as was Faery: Legends of Avalon.

2 games that I've bought & downloaded but haven't got around to yet (that both look pretty good) are the 1st Record of Agarest War game (which also has a "disc" version on the 360...on PSN, it was download-only) and Wizardry: Labyrinth of Lost Souls (which would only be enjoyable to those of you who like older-school style dungeon-crawlers).

Keep in mind that I'm probably missing a ton of the non-rpg ones since they're pretty much all I play...

Costume Quest, Stacking, and Bastion are all on Steam (not sure about any of the others), so they've been easy to pick up on sales. I connected a gamepad to my PC when I played Costume Quest and it automatically switched all the prompts to the Xbox controls. I love it when games do that.

Did you also play Bastion & Stacking?

If so, what did you think about them?

I know that Bastion has some Awesome! music in it

I also suggest I Maed A Game with Zombies In It.  Best $1 I've ever spent on a new game.

[amauriel]

I got Bastion the last time it was on sale but I haven't played it yet.

Stacking I bought when it first came out on the XBLA and I loved it. But I'm biased...anything with the words "Tim Schafer" or "Double Fine" and I'm pretty much immediately in love.

[disgaeniac]

Yeah, I'm also partial to Tim Schafer/Double-Fine myself

I bought Fez this past weekend and it's terrific. Very funny dialogue and the gameplay is really cleverly done.
