Xna

Top 10 Xbox Live Indie Games

Today I am going to list my top 10 Xna games. These games are in no specific order.

Number 10, Plucky's 3d adventure
80 msp (1 dollar)

Most of the time in the xna section 3d games suck. But this new release is a very good Super Mario clone. It features 4 worlds with several levels in each. It has some of the best 3d graphics on the XBLIG section and only costs a dollar.

Number 9 ZP2K9
200 msp (1.50)

ZP2K9 is a 2d multiplayer sidescroller shooter, which is made by James Silva, the guy that brought us The Dishwasher:Dead Samurai. This was my 1st XBLIG purchase and for good reason. The main reason is the online multiplayer, which is awesome because it has 13 weapons, several maps, and supports 10 people online. Even without anyone online anymore, it is still worth the purchase.

Number 8 Weapon of choice
240 (3.00)

Weapon of choice is a 2d sidescroller much like contra. It features 8 characters, tons of levels, and throughout the levels some choice on which way to go. The main attraction for this game is the gameplay. It is very similair to contra but fleshed out. Also the graphics are amazing for an indie game. And it was IGN's XBLIG of the year last year.

Number 7 I Made A Game With Zombies In It
80 msp (1 dollar)

Possibly the most popular XBLIG out there, I made a game with zombies in it made thousands of people realise there are some gems in the Indie Games section. IMGWZ was the first really popular indie game because it featured 4 player dual stick shooting, much like geometry wars, and the most addicting song in a video game that will be in your head for days.

Number 6 Groov
80 msp (1 dollar)

Another twin stick shooter, groov has many graphical similarities to geometry wars, but the main attraction is its blend with gameplay and music. Its techno-ish music is driven by gameplay with every shot making a note, and every hit or kill making a different not. If you have a 360 get the trial and listen to the awesome music
