Fifteen new Xbox Indie Game releases and six updated titles in this weeks Indie Games Round Up.
Eagle eyed readers may have noticed that we have jumped 50 episodes since last week. I chose episode 60 as a very rough number to start the episode numbering format, see last week for why. One of our visitors AzBat360 went back to the start in August 2009 and counted around 110 which is much more accurate so we will be sticking with his count Here is this weeks compilation video featuring most of the new releases, you may want to watch it all 😉
Up next are this weeks releases sorted in a rough order on how good they are over three categories. Trial impressions have been wrote for the Geddon it! category games, the rest use the developers descriptions, though take a look at all the games as something may interest you. Trailers for the new games can be found on Page 2.
