A Quality Game Worth Downloading

Braid is a quality game to download on PS3 or XBox 360. It's not very long, but the game has challenging puzzles, a good story, and great visuals and music.
This game uses time as tool where you can reverse your actions. This is the most used tool where almost everything you do is based and it's the main factor why this puzzle game is so fun. You obtain puzzle pieces through several worlds. It's your basic platformer. You jump over and on enemies, you dodge projectiles, you obtain keys to unlock doors.
The game isn't very long and $15 is starting to get a bit high for a short game to download but I think it's worth it. I miss how there aren't many games made like this anymore.

“Braid” is the brain-child of independent developer, Jonathan Blow, and his company, Number None, Inc. “Braid” has been long-delayed on the PlayStation 3, for reasons that are unclear. The game debuted worldwide on the Xbox 360 in August 2008, followed 8 months later by a release on PC. I was expecting “Braid's” PS3 release to follow soon after that, but was shocked and appalled when the game was released on Mac OS at the end of May, 2009 but not on PS3. I began to think that I would be denied the experience of playing “Braid” altogether (not owning a 360 or Mac and disliking the thought of playing a platformer on PC). Finally, after a year-and-a-quarter of waiting, “Braid” hit the PlayStation Network in November, 2009 for the high-for-an-indie-game price of $15. …
