Microsoft U-turn on Indie Title Dashboard Move

Proof that even big, multinational corporations are prepared to admit when they’ve made a mistake and actually listen to the little guy, Microsoft have reversed their somewhat controversial decision to move indie titles to Xbox LIVE’s Speciality Shops Marketplace section as part of the recent November Dashboard update.

Despite initially defending the decision, it looks like the recent backlash from smaller studies did not fall on deaf ears, with the titles now back in the Games & Demos area.

No official statement from Microsoft regarding the flip-flop has been issued, but we’ll ask. Nicely.
