Its average at best, and very short.

Average at best? You certainly appear to be in the minority judging by what's been said on this forum and indeed the awards it's been given in the following quote

I'll definitely be pre-ordering, it looks like a fantastic game

 

[GJ02]

Ah well he is right in a way. It's a fantastic game, but of very limited replay value (unless you want to go for the don't die much achievement).. and it being so short....

But I still love it.

 

[McGray]

The game starts off really well but falls off halfway through and becomes like any other puzzle platformer.

As said it's also really short and has no replay value.

Average about sums it up for me too lol.

 

[TheVoice]

It's utterly brilliant, the sense of atmosphere is like no other game. Truly superb, great soundtrack too.

Couldn't care less about replay value really, it's a game that focuses on the experience, not going back and doing things for the sake of achievements.

This.

Braid as little replayability once you've completed it. That doesn't stop it being a superb game. Limbo is the same.

Out in 2 days according to Steam.

Odd that there's been no pre-order period or offer.

 

[Mp4]

^ i'm gonna wait till its £2 on a Steam weekend

 

[bledd]

This looks very immersive, I'll be getting this

Its most likely only going to cost between £6-10 anyway I reckon it will be £5.99 @ launch then go up after a few days to full price. 21 hours left according to Steam only going to be a 150MB ish anyway will not take long to launch but not seen much PR for this which is surprising considering how well acclaimed it was on the consoles!
