Which type of games do you think are better: games created for free and put on the internet (such as OSU!, Stepmania, Frets on Fire), or games that are mass manufactured by rich companies?

If there was an inbetween category id vote for that. Indi games are great because theyre a decent quality game and theyre free. With the exception of a few game design studios, mainstream games are usually of a higher standard of quality which includes voice acting and usually a longer game, unfortunately they arnt free but a lot of games are worth the money.

Are you kidding me, how could it even be close. There's FAR to many well established franchises to lose to indie games-even if there are some spectacular ones and their free.

This isnt about who would lose to who, this is about which one you prefer.

It's a tie, some genres work better as indie games. (music games mostly)

Whilst some just have to be commercial. (MMO's and big games)

There's of course exceptions but this works for most.

THAT sounds like my cue! :3

Yes, a ton of indie games are music-oriented. I love music games they're random and fun.

I like indie games more, personally. Mostly because they really aren't fueled by dollar signs and stuff.

Either can be if made well.

By the way, I love Osu!, but I can only play it at school. I can beat Insane on Ouendan for DS no problem, but the mouse makes things a bit harder on the PC.

I played Osu for about an hour yesterday. I mostly play Taiko for it, though.

The quality of game is the major factor, and the developer, publisher and way of it's spreading through communities does not matter.

I think that the best choise would be something between those two categories.
I like free games, but they usually lack of graphics...
So I would like a free internet game with good quality!

All and all I like the indie games but they really can't compare to mainstream. The indie games only have so much to offer, they get boring after awhile, and just don't have the capabilities that mainstream games do. The mainstream games are funded and have the money to put the best quality into their games. I love the indie games but mainstream gets my vote on this one.
