My Discovery of Indie Games

A few weeks ago I had a realization after I got a copy of Mutants & Masterminds. I have considered myself a Role-player for a long time, but when I think about it the only real role-playing games that I have played are Dungeons & Dragons and White-Wolf. Sure Dungeons & Dragons and White-Wolf are both big names in the role-playing world but I realized that I was limiting my self by not trying anything else.
Mutants & Masterminds change all that. Before I picked up a copy of Mutants & Masterminds I thought I wouldn’t be interested in superhero role-playing games, after I picked one up I couldn’t get it out of my mind. I visited the Mutants & Masterminds forums and read what people were thinking about the game.
Eventually I discovered several other games that I had heard about before but had never thought to play. Two games in particular that I became interested in and ordered copies of are Agon and Spirit of the Century. I am also interested in Geiger Counter which I downloaded a copy of.
I am also interested in other games so if anyone has any suggestions I will look into them. (That is if anyone reads this)
