If you own an Xbox 360, are online and live in a country that has access to Xbox Live Community games, here is a list of games that will cost you pennies and help to keep you playing through these tough times.
With the help of the new Xbox.com, we now know what the top ten best selling Xbox Live Indie Games of all time are. While some are fairly obvious, others were less than expected especially given the quality of some other XBLIG titles out there.
Game-Debate writes: "Recently we got a chance to get a few questions answered by Tim XNA Creator "Some Call Me Tim" that created and developed the Xbox LIVE Indie hit RC-AirSim and UAV Wars. RC-AirSim is a radio-controlled model airplane flight simulator that has been at the top of the LIVE charts since its release in January 2009. UAV Wars is a 3D action arcade game where you remotely pilot your Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and destroy the competing UAVs to win a military defense contract. Tim took time out of his busy schedule to answer some questions for us and the Xbox LIVE community so let's all give a big thanks to Tim."
When Microsoft first announced the XNA Community games program -- one that would empower anybody with programming knowledge to sell games on Xbox Live directly to Xbox 360 owners -- many small time developers dreamt of making it big. As people have seen, this has not always been the case. Yet week after week, one game remains at the top of the top of the XNA sales charts. RC-AirSim, which may or may not even be described as a game depending upon your definition, has been sitting pretty at the top of the sales charts ever since it was released back in January.
Fascinated by the success and curious as to what it takes to make a hit XNA game, IGN went to Tim, also known by his XNA Creator name "Some Call Me Tim" for more.
