Amazing game. Amazing everything. Discuss.

I'm currently finishing up worlds 5 and 6 and loving every second. I also hear tell of there being secret stars in the game that are found in ridiculous ways.

Also, I'm saddened that this topic wasn't made by anyone else before now.

last level is phenomenal, pretty much on par to what the big twist in Bioshock was.

Yeah, and the stars are a bitch to get. I've got half of them already, 1 of them requires you to literally wait 2 hours before you can even get it o_O

EDIT - Fuck yeah, got the speed run accomplishment achievement (beat the game in under 45 minutes), currently ranked 5th on XBL with a time of 39.32.85 =D

I downloaded the demo, and the art style had me going "wow" for a while.

Still haven't picked up any points yet though.

Point cards are on sale at Target this week. 1600 ($20) worth of points for $15. SO GO GET IT.

Bumping an old thread, but it's relevant.

The Braid OST was put up for purchase on Magnatune.

Jon Schatz: Braid Soundtrack

They have it in MP3 and FLAC, along with album art.

It's also supposed to be on Steam for $15... eventually.

That too. Picked it up, and plays really nicely on the PC; and comes with a level editor too!

I downloaded the demo on Steam & gonna try it out (hopefully, my laptop can run it). I don't think Steam has those cards you can buy & redeem online like Nintendo/Sony/Microsoft, otherwise I would like to buy it since I don't have a 360 yet.

Edit: Well, my laptop runs the game OK (it's not all that smooth, but definitely not laggy, so it's good enough for me), but I REALLY wish this made it on PSN & WiiWare (too bad it won't be on Wii & PSP (though PS3 is possible. But isn't 144 MB possible on PSP??) due to size restrictions.).

Braid was released on the PS3.
I was super excited to get it seeing all the praise it got for its gameplay and story.
Gameplay was good. I really thought the story was stupid. The last level was interesting, but then theres some bs about an atomic bomb or something? It was to complicated and random. It would have been better if it left off with the last level.

I grabbed it last week myself.

Little disappointed on the trophies in comparison to the 360 version. All you have to do for the hardest one, really, is to do 'some kind' of full game speed run, which nets you a silver. No golds.

Beat the game, first time playing, in its entirety in a little over 3 hours...and probably 2 of the hours was me burning my brains out trying to figure out the exact way to do things. I would surmise hitting the 45 minute mark that is the challenge would be possible if I try hard enough.
