Oh, my god! BRAID!

OANST · #1 08-10-2008, 09:12 AM

As a puzzle game I have only played its equal in Portal. If you own a 360 and you don't buy it you will be missing out on one of the most unique platforming experiences ever. It's like if the original 2D Oddworld games were 100 times more fun and interesting. Buy it. 15 bucks won't kill you.

The only Ecksbawks I can use don't have the AuwnLyne. (Pronounce them...)

What the fuck is Braid? Someone tell me about it instead of everyone telling me how great it is.

Anonyman! · #8 08-10-2008, 05:46 PM

You run, fuck with time, win.

***Nate*** · #9 08-11-2008, 01:03 AM

Laser · #11 08-11-2008, 01:34 AM

I've been following it for a while, I MUST get it!

Fuzzle King · #12 08-13-2008, 06:18 AM

i been playing the demo and i must say,it is good.
the last two puzzle pieces on the cloud bridge in world two had me puzzled for a bit but i got there.
but i wanna know why its 400ms points more than most other arcade games.

***Wil*** · #13 08-13-2008, 01:57 PM

Having been without anything that can play a game from the last five years for a fair while, Braid has, like most of the gaming industry, passed me by. But I decided to be charitable and look it up. Is the Jonathan Blow who made it the one and same who worked at Oddworld?

Strike Witch · #14 08-13-2008, 08:37 PM

*shrug*

But it is incredibly awesome, apparently.

I like the story.

mudling · #15 08-13-2008, 10:48 PM

I'm contemplaiting on getting this game, it's alot of money, and the price may go down soon, but I don't know... I'm need something to entertain me before more decent games finally come out (and it looks like soon we'll get a whole lot of them, if only they were paced out rather then forced out all at once, at least I wouldn't feel like I was broke).
How long is it? Does it have much replay value? Otherwise I'm pretty much sold, apart from ripping off super mario.

***Xavier*** · #16 08-14-2008, 02:24 AM

Just played the demo and I have to agree, it's an awesome game. I'll probably purchase it after I'm done with my exams...

This.

Both are wonderful

OANST · #23 08-22-2008, 03:22 PM

By the way, I got all eight stars. Which is time consuming and difficult. So, yeah. I'm cool.

Laser · #24 08-23-2008, 05:31 AM

I finished it a few days ago, it was suprising to know that Tim Braid is a stalker

You mean Tim. But, yes. Yes, he is.

Laser · #26 08-23-2008, 05:37 AM

About the stars, what do they actually do?

OANST · #27 08-23-2008, 06:50 AM

They fill up the constellation in the hub. Once it is filled you can look up at it and it will make a picture. I did it more for the challenge than anything else. I was just excited to find that there were more puzzles in the game than I thought there were.

Also, for anyone who isn't sure, the title Braid is not a characters' name. The game is called braid because the last thing Tim remembers seeing of the princess is her braid whipping in front of his face as she turns his back on him.

mudling · #28 08-23-2008, 09:30 PM

Well got through this game, it's great, I wont repeat what anyone has said, but it is amazing.

I said I got through it, but I haven't yet completed it, am up to the last door but I have to get all of the puzzles, and some of it's pretty hard for me, but then again, I'm not too good at puzzle games.

OANST · #29 08-25-2008, 04:45 PM

I might be able to help if you tell me which ones are causing the problem. I'm playing through it for the fourth time now.

Bullet Magnet · #30 09-20-2008, 10:08 AM

I finally got it, and just finished it. I feel somewhat betrayed, I had grown very attatched to Tim and his quest for the Princess. It sounded like a beautifully sad love story, I had supposed that messing with time had erased Tim and the Princess from each other's lives. Then time finally started flowing in the right direction and the scene that unfolded- the scene I had just lived backwards- brought my world crashing down around my ears. Bloody hell. "Now we're all sons of bitches."
