Cup Head isn't on the list because it's already been announced for the platform. The videos uploaded are for games that are making Xbox media debuts.
 
I guess they're going to have some huge indie montage with pieces of these during their presentation and then tell everyone to go watch the full trailers on Youtube later.
 
So I take that they are announcing that anyone can make Xbone games with the "use the console as devkit" feature, and that they will no longer have any barriers?

Because some of these games look a lot like XBLIG 2.0 XD
 
I quite like the look of Munch Time 2, meant to be some sort of metroidvania style game, from the YouTube synopsis:

Munch Time 2 is a 2D metroidvania platformer featuring the lovably silly and acrobatically gifted chameleon Munch.


and the Great Emoticon just looks fantastic
 
No Cuphead? That game has me intrigued since it's reveal last year. Beautiful classic cartoon graphic goodness.

I'm pretty sure they will have an indie montage at their event these look like games that probably won't make the sizzle reel.
 
Some of the games look VERY rough (especially Zenith). But Sword Cost Legends (old fashioned WRPG) looks great. The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing looks like a low budget Diablo clone. Phantasmal: City of Darkness (first person horror game) looks kind of generic but I am interested in the procedural generation aspect. Blues and Bullets (detective game) has PS3 graphics but the story seems very interesting. I hope the 3rd person shooting parts don't drag the game down - they didn't look so good.

The Bridge looks like a pretty cool artsy puzzle game and Gemini has an awesome art style but I have no idea what it is. It actually looked like it took imagery from No Man's Sky. Enki (first person horror)has decent graphics and looks good from the short footage. Leo's Fortune looks like Little Big Planet 1's single player which I loved. Everything else looks like ass.

Van Helsing is actually a very good game.
 
I loathe the type of people who shrug off indies, who claim they all look like trash and aren't "real" games and so forth... But I'm underwhelmed by the look of several of these games.

Just as many promising titles on display, though, and a couple I've previously had my eye on.

It's easy to dismiss indies when they release with no marketing and cost $15-20. Stuff like Braid or Shadow Complex stood out on the 360 with summer of arcade promotions. MS just dumps things out without much hype now on the xb1.
 
I HOPE these are not the ones MS selected for their conference, because I thought mine was going live and I don't see it on that list...
I would be pretty offended if our game was not selected because some of these...things.

No ones is doing it, so calm down paranoid dude. People are gauging their intrest level in some of those games since a lot of them looks weak.
