  As the title suggests this is for any indie games that you think are worthy of other people's attention.
  
  I'd start with a look at quick look at Plant's Vs Zombies.
  
  It's a strategy game based on a simple premise. Stop the zombies from getting across your lawn and into your house as they will eat your brain if they make it inside.
  
  It's well paced and has a quirky sense of humour that kept me playing to the end and it even has a good end credit song (not as good as the original portal end credit song but then nothing beats the original portal end credit song).

  I don't know if this counts as an indie (can't remember who develped it) but Pain is a fun game, been out for PS3 for a while now, but yeah of that was an indie game then that is definately worthy of mention.
  There was another game recently as well that was available on the Playstation Store, but annoyingly can't remember it's name at the moment.

  As far as i'm concerned an indie game is generally defined by being made by a small software company, one that has less than 10 people is indie in my book.
  
  They are normally inexpensive (£3-£10)
  Not normally cutting edge graphics but it can happen.
  
  If you can think of anything else that makes a game indie why not post it here?

  World of goo was a pretty good one, as was braid and lunar. I don't know if anyone's played these, but they're all pretty good. The first I think was wii exclusive, the other two were on xbox live arcarde.

  Remembered one game i got off the Playstation Store, which i`m sure should count as an indie game, burn zombie burn(think that was it`s name) that was quite an entertaining game, also does Angry Birds count? ok technically it`s a phone game but it wasn`t done by a big developer.

  I think angry birds definitely counts, phone game or not! It's still been done by a small studio on a small budget, and it's addictive as Pringles laced with crack!

  World of Goo is available in Steam for the PC, i tried the demo, it's good.
