I need to ask this, joystiq have you guys played any of the good PSN games? You know Pixel junk monsters? Pixel junk eden? Flower? Super star dust HD? Because I have braid on my 360, yes its an amazing game and really by far the best game on XBLA (I like castle crashers as well), but how can you put BRAID over those games? Im tired of reviewers constantly not caring about PSN titles when they are some of the most innovative and unique games available today.

Flower came out in 2009, and I'm pretty sure Stardust was 2007.
Monsters, and Eden are good... but even though I'm probably what one would consider a Sony Fanboy... Braid is better, it really is one of the best games of 2008. I'd say it's probably the best digital distribution game of 2008.

...but Braid IS better than those games, and stardust is nowhere near as awesome as Geo Wars 2

Why you so angry....If his statement really bothers you, there is vote down.

Besides; you are fanboy yourself, hating anything related to Sony

It seems nothing is truly exclusive anymore. I'm not complaining but it just seems like a waste of time really.

I saw this game on my bud's Xbox and he played it for a bit and let me help out. We had some good fun with it. I'll probably hop in a gamesharing group when it comes out.
Do I think it's better than something like PixelJunk Monsters or Wipeout HD? No, but their all different genres so it's a little difficult to compare them. It's all preference for me and I just find those games to be more interesting.

I bought Braid for my Xbox, and if it comes to PS3, I'll be rebuying it. (just like that I bought Castle Crashers, and it's coming to PS3, I'll rebuy that too).
Just add some stuff onto both of them, so they're not just ports, and you'll have my $15 again (each game)

Funny thing, I pretty much bought my xbox exclusively for Braid and Castle Crashers. If only I had waited a year!...

Good, very good. I have a 360 but didn't bother picking up Braid with the plethora of other games available (I need to get started on Bionic Commando now that trophies are finally out).

Yeah, I hear John Blow comes over to your house, smacks you on the muzzle with a newspaper, and rips the Braid right off your hard drive.

Yeah, make fun of his choice of words xD

Still, what he said is true, this is yet another blow (ehe) to the 360's list of exclusives.

So this is yet another XBLA "exclusive" yes I know it's on PC, but for the benefit of the doubt I'll say exclusive much Gears of War 1, Left 4 Dead games, Mass Effect games, 360 people like to say exclusives for those games [Even though it's obviously playable on PC] but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt since they like to argue against it, so yes Braid is an "exclusive" if you use 360 fanboy logic.

Anyways, another "exclusive" lost I guess.

My little brother has this game on his 360 and it's pretty good and innovative.

I bought my 360 for Geometry wars! I think I play more XBLA than any of the retail games I buy.

'...the organization's fancifully named "Jump 'n Run" category...'
'"Jump 'n' Run"? How about "Platformer"?'

That's what platformers are called in Germany. Get used to it.
