Bebpo · « **Reply #17 on:** December 16, 2008, 04:23:00 PM »

I won World of Goo.

2nd time I ever won a game. First was in the Destroy All Humans GAF contest...where most of us never got the game. I guess this is payback.

demi · « **Reply #18 on:** December 16, 2008, 04:24:27 PM »

Awesome I won Braid!

Fragamemnon · « **Reply #19 on:** December 16, 2008, 11:12:26 PM »

I won Audiosurf. I had always meant to buy it but never got around to it.

Decent game, pretty fun playing a game to your own music instead of EA TRAX or whatever bullshit.

BobFromPikeCreek · « **Reply #20 on:** December 17, 2008, 01:33:26 AM »

Won Braid! Thanks, thread!

trh · « **Reply #21 on:** December 17, 2008, 01:46:24 AM »

LOL I won Braid, and it works on European accounts! Thank god I entered the second e-mail.

demi · « **Reply #22 on:** December 17, 2008, 01:50:46 AM »

Yea I won with my third email

I gave my Braid to Robby cause you know my stance on it. lol

trh · « **Reply #23 on:** December 17, 2008, 07:45:21 AM »

tiesto · « **Reply #25 on:** December 17, 2008, 11:19:25 AM »

Cool, I won World of Goo.

Yeti · « **Reply #26 on:** December 17, 2008, 01:30:10 PM »

I didn't win anything, serves me right for being too stupid to think of using multiple emails.

Do the SpeedRun, everyone on my list has 185. I doubt the SpeedRun is that hard. Weaksauce gamers.

cool breeze · « **Reply #28 on:** December 17, 2008, 02:59:19 PM »

have you tried playing Braid more than once? it's the most boring thing ever

GilloD · « **Reply #29 on:** December 17, 2008, 03:36:20 PM »

If anyone does't want their Braid win, I'll trade you something for it

Madrun Badrun · « **Reply #30 on:** December 17, 2008, 07:02:21 PM »

world of goo and braid are both great.

tiesto · « **Reply #31 on:** December 17, 2008, 10:20:38 PM »

Just played some World of Goo... pretty fun, although it seems like it could get really difficult.

BobFromPikeCreek · « **Reply #32 on:** December 18, 2008, 03:23:57 AM »

That Doritos game was better than Braid.

cool breeze · « **Reply #33 on:** December 18, 2008, 12:57:08 PM »

i don't know why my post was posted here..yeah

Madrun Badrun · « **Reply #34 on:** December 18, 2008, 05:04:15 PM »

are people who don't enjoy braid just really dumb?

demi · « **Reply #35 on:** December 18, 2008, 05:08:34 PM »

Or wise to the scam that is Jonathan Blow

Madrun Badrun · « **Reply #36 on:** December 18, 2008, 05:11:10 PM »

Demi doesn't like it. Question answered.

demi · « **Reply #37 on:** December 18, 2008, 05:12:43 PM »

Guess I should read more books

Bebpo · « **Reply #38 on:** December 18, 2008, 05:17:38 PM »

Braid has good gameplay and music.
The story is lolz and the visuals are debatable.
The last stage is kind of cool.
Oh and the game is really short.
/End of debate.

Madrun Badrun · « **Reply #39 on:** December 18, 2008, 05:18:45 PM »

ya demi they will prepare you for the emotional thrill ride that is braid's magnificent story.

demi · « **Reply #40 on:** December 18, 2008, 05:19:53 PM »

The story of Jonathan Blow on why he overcharged his game so he "didn't have to get a job"

Epic, telling, emotional

Madrun Badrun · « **Reply #41 on:** December 18, 2008, 05:23:11 PM »

seriously though how can people fault the gameplay? it's great.

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #42 on:** December 18, 2008, 05:37:23 PM »

I don't have much interest in collecting puzzle pieces or solving the puzzles. I get why people would really like it as the puzzles are pretty clever.

I just don't care to bother myself with them.

BobFromPikeCreek · « **Reply #43 on:** December 19, 2008, 01:38:25 AM »

The solutions to the puzzles in Braid feel like you're doing it wrong even when you're doing it right. Plus it's littered with hippie bullshit.

I am shocked

trh · « **Reply #46 on:** December 19, 2008, 02:05:50 PM »

Was rather

learning all the rooms and not making too many mistakes. Frustrating stuff. They really oughta have made it separate parts for each world and your total time combined should be like 40:00 (rather than 45:00 in one sitting), restarting a game after spending 40 minutes on it was not fun.
