It’s summer, and that means a wasteland of retail releases, but never fear, there are plenty of great smaller titles on the way. XBLA has turned the Summer drought into a veritable smorgasbord of great downloadable releases, and the indie scene is looking to bring their goods as well.
Twisted Pixel delivered Ms. Splosion Man last week, and Richard talks with Twisted Pixel’s Frank Wilson about the follow-up to 2009’s XBLA hit. Indie games are also getting their due with an interview about the Indie Games Summer Uprising on XBL. Supergiant Games’s freshman effort and Summer of Arcade 2011 opener, Bastion, gets an audio review from Ludwig and a review roundtable featuring MTV Games’s Russ Frushtick.

Part 3 (30:58) – Bastion audio review and roundtable
