Hopefully, in the next week or so, we can stop talking about how "revolutionary" Braid is and get on with the rest of our lives. Who would have thought that adding a "LOL Time!" button to Super Mario Brothers would be so earth shatteringly creative.

Or to quote Corvus Elrod:

"What we got instead, however, was a brittle platformer with dreams of being much more."

"So, rather than presenting a compelling storyscape to experience, the game becomes a "learn how the designer thinks" style of game."

Church!
