PSN adding Indie Games section

4.6
The PlayStation Network will launch an "Indie Games" section for the PlayStation Store later today as part of the standard Tuesday update.

"This category builds on the support that PlayStation has offered independent developers in the effort to highlight some of the most unique gaming experiences on PlayStation platforms," notes the PlayStation Blog. "This new category will house all of our latest indie titles in one convenient place."

Clarifying some odd wording on the PlayStation Blog, Gamasutra has confirmed that Indie games will reside in both the normal section of the PSN store and this new indies section in Europe. We've confirmed with a representative for Sony America that the plan is to have indie games found in both sections in North America, as well.

Hopefully this will become huge in the next coming months as I know it will be but it has a huge way to come when it comes to the amount of app on the xbox side.

This is AMAZING, hopefully this makes PS3 Players have a lot more to choose from, and hopefully they don't create retarded games.
