parker Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 (edited) Braid has been announced for PS3! The German ratings board USK has rated Braid, the indie Xbox 360 hit, for the PlayStation Network. The time-bending platformer, which appears to be under the porting skills of Hothead Games, was a big hit for Jonathan Blow when it was released on the Xbox 360’s Live Arcade last August. Hothead Games had no trouble casting the familiar head-scratching magic onto their Mac port, so we have no question in assuming the PS3 version will be just as good.In the game, the player acts as protagonist Tim, who, as his moniker suggests, has an element of Time about him. Each of the story-based puzzle worlds introduce a new element to the time-based tasks, and whilst they start off simple (rewinding time) later sections introduce doppelgangers and sections of the levels that don’t respond to the reversal of time. It’s a wickedly clever game, and one that had me gasping out loud as I played through the Xbox version last year. The overall theme, when you finally get it, will blow you away too.This is great news for PS3-only gamers, look out for the PSN version soon… ^^Via TheSixthAxis Edited July 31, 2009 by parker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirate Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 (edited) Hmm it seems that you and another guy made a thread about Braid simultaneously Anyways, didn't it win XBLA Game of the Year for GI(Game Informer)? I've heard really good things about it and this is great news for all PSN buyers. Might easily be in the Top 5 most purchased PSN games in the first few days it's out.... Edit: Disregard my first comment, olsen moved it.... Edited July 31, 2009 by Pirate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirate Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 One year. I swore it came out in '07! I might just be getting old..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misantropus Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Braid is very good and unique, but I don't think it's as outstanding as the reviewers say. Also, along with games like Flower and PixelJunk Eden, it's definitely not a game anyone will like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stiff bon air Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 This game is loads of fun. But I never bought it for the 360 so now I guess I will when it drops on PSN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real_Deal Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 OMFG, this is the best news i have seen in a long time. I am going to buy this day one no matter what. This is one of the few games that i am hooked on since it has a great concept, story, and gameplay. Anyone who likes puzzle games or anything creative should try this game as it won't disappoint.

mcnichoj Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Yeah, it's been out for roughly two years now and is still one of the top rated game on Xbox Live..... There is no "rated game" system on the 360, please refrain from talking about things you clearly know nothing about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanboy Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 (edited) There is no "rated game" system on the 360, please refrain from talking about things you clearly know nothing about. He clearly just means its one of the best reviewed games on Xbox Live Arcade. Now please don't reply to posts you clearly know nothing about. As for the game, well its a must buy. Its just brilliant and full of so many great ideas. I think the only better downloadable game is Wipeout HD to be honest. The news that both Braid and Castle Crashers are coming to PSN is pretty amazing to be honest, cos they are both awesome.
