There's over a hundred hours of air time to fill, and running the same familiar games twice a year would be boring. Also I enjoy finding hidden gems or just larger titles I passed on that actually look cool when run.

Is the tracklisting for bumper music new this year? It's a really nice touch.

Braid is fine and the music is cool and yeah I'm like nowhere near smart enough to actual beat it so this run works out.

Braid is a game with a great gimmick with the time rewinding but also has bad platforming, slow boring movement and an ugly art style. Braid is one of those games I just never got the hype for beyond the time rewind thing.

This is a decent opinion of Braid. The hype was mainly aping Super Mario and then being subversive with its plot and some of its puzzles.

Fez takes the cake on extreme puzzle subversion.

No.

I disagree about "ugly art style", unless you mean the faces. I also think the platforming itself is serviceable. But really, it's more that it predated the whole "retro" thing and the indie game boom while having a pretty clever puzzle mechanic. Like, it was something...fresh? Nowadays we have a thousand different options.

It was also before there were a million pretentious indie platformers for you to take your pick of, so all that poo poo with the stars and atom bombs really enticed me when I was younger :shobon:

This is a good run. I hope Jonny Blow is taking note. :colbert:

I like my platforms nice and puzzley, so I enjoyed playing this long ago. I had no awareness of its deep lore when I was done.

It's because that Soulja Boy video is completely perfect and Braid is merely good not bad.

I got Contra III for Christmas one year and we had to go to a relative's for New Years and I was having trouble beating the game. So I got to the helicopter fight and put a chair on the fire button and stood in the corner and came back to 99 lives. The best.
