Indie game developers unite

I recently read a report on gamesindustry.biz in which Darren Jobling, director of business development at Eutechnyx told developers not to sell their companies and instead remain independant.

I have long foretold of a time when independent games developers will return and bring us cheap and entertaining games. In this era of large games companies (your Ubisofts, EA Games and Namcos) it is refreshing to see a big advising smaller companies against being assimilated into the large corporate wheel.

Independent developers mean a larger variation in the genres of games developed and hopefully the emergance of developers such as Impact Games who brought us Peacemaker.
