It's all good, there are actually getting to be more and more quality Indie titles on Xbox Live. I'm not claiming that Poop n' Scoop is one of those quality titles, I'm just saying - things are looking up! ;)

I'm actually glad I started this thread as it got me to check out some other Dream Build Play entries. Here are a few that I like so far for various reasons. The music in Inferus is excellent plus it reminds me of Castlevania so +1 for that(although the player's running animation is a bit lackluster). Triangulation looks like a really fun arcade game that I could get into with friends. And Hour Zero is just plain hilarious.

lol, sorry dude - my bad. ;) (fixed btw)

I'm impressed with all of those Dream Build Play entries. Triangulation is probably my favorite. It's cool to see an innovative game come from such a basic gaming premise. We've seen countless Breakout / Arkanoid clones, but this is a cool twist. Plus, I love their nod to the various graphics eras of gaming, that's a giant bucket of win in my book!

Hey there, darling. I figured that you would be showing up. I have to admit that you surpassed my expectations.

edit: And yes--"on par with or better than top-notch XNA games" is much more arrogant than "best indie game ever."

Yeah, I guess comparing yourself to XNA titles is more arrogant..?

And was that playlist supposed to be an argument? How many of those have you actually played? Some of then aren't even out yet. Given your team's history, I can't say I'm surprised that you would value a two-minute video over gameplay, storyline, etc., but that doesn't make it a good argument.

Yes but when you made your statement, it sounded like you were being 100% serious. 8-)

Yeah, I bought it last night after making that post. It's fun as hell in co-op and gets insanely difficult after a few minutes.

If by "google" you mean the search engine, it's just you.
