Xbox One indie developer self-publishing program

[utblick]

Today Microsoft unveiled its Xbox One indie developer self-publishing program. Sound very good for TPA on XBOne. But no information yet about Xbox 360 and XBLA self-publishing...

Two free dev kits to developers is a highlight, but not a lick of info on the 360. Maybe they will announce something quietly, but pretty disapponting considering all they had to say was "and we are extending this to current 360 developers". I guess the next gen console arms race is all-important.

This doesn't sound good.

Well looks like the 360 will get no TPA love. I guess I'm stuck with these few tables. 30 something tables and we have what 8..........

The quotes from the last newsletter are very odd, though. They basically said they were being allowed to do it, full stop. Guess we wait for the next newsletter.

NBA just read oxmonline chat, thanks for that. made my mind up trading my xbox 360 in for ps4,those people at xbox are boofheads or what ?

 

[Gigabomber]

I've been so badly burned by ps3, I'm still holding out for a year or so until I see the tide change.

Guess choosing X360 for one of my two T2 platforms was a bad choice

Don't worry - FS won't let it go to waste - you can always change it to something else.

PS4 before 360. Who wants to take that bet?

I think the 360 version will be released before the PS4 comes out on the 15th

I'd prefer to spend money I would be betting with to buy the season passes for steam.

Well,I have been saving almost $30 in MS points just to add TPA tables. At this point,I am all done with the Xbox 360 in regards to TPA. Unless they are able to resolve the TPA 360 issue AND I find out there will be no Xbox One release. If I have to choose between the next-gen systems,the X1 has more of the games I want. Until I'm able to put in a decent graphics card into my PC,Steam isn't an option for me.Besides, I like playing TPA on my HDTV.

So the waiting game continues..
