    Default Microsoft has no plans to bring indie games to Xbox Live SA

    Xbox LIVE SA: No indie games planned

    No Indie Games channel planned for now, more Games on Demand and Xbox LIVE Arcade titles still in the works

    I started on a Live SA account because I was stupid and didn't do my research.

    Thanks for finding out though, James.

    Are you sure though that we've got 26 Live Arcade games? I can't remember it being close to that many. Will go check at home tonight.

    *edit*

    There are only 13 arcade games available for me. And there aren't close to as many games on demand as what's mentioned in the article. James, they lied to you.

    Hi Solitude,

    I took my numbers from the xbox.com website: http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-ZA/Games/XboxArcadeGames

    That's also where I got the numbers for the other sub-categories of games.

    I assume you checked through your Xbox dashboard? If there are less games listed through the dashboard than those listed on their webpages, it'll be worth me following up.

    Yes, I checked through the XBox dashboard. If you look at the website you'll see that when you list the arcade games, only some of them have the little green game controller icon. These are the only games that can be bought.

    Would be interesting to see how many people migrate back to US/UK accounts as soon as they can

    How does the migration work? For instance can I migrate my RSA account to the UK and then one day migrate it back?

    Sorry, I don't know much about the migration thing. How often is this possible, if it is possible?
