We’ve seen a big explosion in Indie games over the past few years. This awesome genre has delivered unforgettable experiences including Braid, The Binding Isaac and Super Meatboy to the masses. Due to the free-for-all nature of indie game development, this sector has so much more to offer and they’re not always as easy to find as your average Call of Duty sequel… Here are our top 5 indie games you probably haven’t heard of, but should definitely check out.
I wouldn't call Anomaly 2 a indie title. But it's a game I really enjoyed playing lately.
I was iffy to add it because it is beginning to make a name for itself but the "Anomaly" games certainly started as indie titles. Regardless, its a game that deserves more attention than it's gotten.
90's arcade racer is the indie title I am most looking forward to. I know its not on the list (as many know about it) but so little has been talked about it as of late.
i think it's still in development.......?
Yessir! That looks like a lot of fun.. Last news was that they were at about 90% completion.

DAMN!!! this is even better than I expected. SEGA should get this guy on board to make this into an arcade game. it has "arcade quality" all over it.
Thanks for that info TUG.
Guacamelee is extremely well known. Especially since Sony gave it a lot of hype back in April as part of its spring collection.
BNR: During the Boston VR Meetup, I had the chance to chat with the fellows at Dejobaan, the creators of Drunken Robot Pornography, Drop that Beat Like an Ugly Baby and the upcoming Elegy for a Dead World.
