Xbox just gave you something to do while you're bundled up inside, hiding away from the winter cold.

As part of its ID@Xbox Game Demo Winterfest promotion (ID@Xbox is Xbox's indie games publishing program), Microsoft dropped a whopping 33 free game demos you can play between now and Dec. 31. As you might expect, these are all for independent games and not shiny billion-dollar AAA titles.

Still, it's good to expand your horizons beyond the biggest, most popular games.
