Anon19746274d ago

You know, I haven't bought Braid yet. I should really check out a few more of these XBLA titles.

Did you play castle crashers yet? Great fun.

sticky doja6274d ago

I love the game, although it is a little short for $15. Some of the puzzles are so hard but there is a great sense of accomplishment once you figure them out. I can honestly say that I figured them out on my own (I would have given up and looked online had my computer worked at the time lol) except for the 7 secret stars.

Didn't know there was a Braid demo. I'll have to check that out. I downloaded Castle Crashers last night so i'll be playing that today.

Question, when i shut down the 360 last night it didn't shut down completely. Is this because I was downloading a demo? Does it stay on to continue downloading?

sticky doja6273d ago

You can set the 360 to download and then turn off after it finishes its download. I'm not sure where the option to turn this setting on is but I'm sure that was the case last night for you.

I focus-tested this game and it's pretty damn addictive. I'll be getting it when it's out on XBLA.

It's difficult to describe the appeal, but it involves tetris-style block stacked up throughout the levels that can be destroyed when standing right next to them. Of course, the danger is the ones above WILL fall down if they're resting on nothing so you'll need to be tunneling through fast without getting crushed.

I'd definitely recommend it to everyone. There's actually a ton of different gametypes in it but all revolving around the same concept of anti-tetris block destroying.

Music in Gaming: why 16 bits sound just fine to me

Gamer's Guide to Life.com, Monday 20th June 2011: Music is a generally-overlooked component of videogames, at least from the player's perspective, some background to the main product that (often) many don't notice. However, creative decisions about videogame music can be essential to creating memorable videogames, argues Andrew Testerman.

"Many games benefit from a large scale, orchestral approach, but the best soundtracks are the ones that best suit the game, and to preclude using MIDI compositions simply because they’re old would be a mistake."

Nice. I didn't think I'd like this one, but it turned out to be more fun than I thought.
