Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



If you loved Braid, as the majority of Destructoid's staff did, you're going to want to sit down for this one. Rapper Soulja Boy posted a YouTube video which shows himself and a friend sharing their feedback on Braid, including such gems of insight as "it ain't got no point to the game" and "it's like Mario in the future". Wow. Just ... wow.

Of course, Braid is stupid and has no point! It has no guns, and worst of all, no titties! Of course, the composer of a triumphant ode to the beauty of women such as "Booty Meat" is an ideal person to comment on a game that challenges intelligence, emotions and interpretation all at the same time. Stick with what you know, kid, because this sh*t just makes you look bad.

[Thanks, Action Bastard]

This punk is one of the main reasons I have very little hope for Humans.

If I ever see him, I'll kick him in his undoubtedly tiny man-parts. Then punch him in the goddamn face.

I'd go a bit further into this, but it's midnight, and I'm tired.

Is it possible that he knows what he's doing, and he's only doing this to promote a good game... wait, what the hell am I saying? Oh well, at least Braid will sell more.

Unfortunately for the rest of the world, he doesn't know good music either.

wait - holy sadness -- I just read the comments here so someone aas to say this--- when did destructoid readers turn from such a mr.destructoid robot loving fun people to a bunch of racism spewing and prejudiced (shit man if that wasn't soldjasdf whatever boy you would've loved ) assholes that talk about how you hate black people or c-blogs supremacy? I thought that shitt was for digg... :(

What the hell does a high kid having fun playing an independent game stand for a race of people?

Fuck you

That was funny, though for some reason the Gamevideo video isn't playing so I had to go to Youtube and actively search for this shit.

Worth it. I lolled. "Woooop!"

i'm with meronkun here. what's with the bullshit like "stuff like this makes me a racist" or "if i see him, i'll kick him" ??
he's a kid. he's stoned. he's laughing his ass off while playing braid. what exactly does this have to do with anything else? have none of you haters ever smoked? you never said anything stupid while wasted? yeah, maybe he's stupid when he's sober too. but that still has got fuck to do with what's going on in this video.
as a disclaimer i'll say that i don't watch tv so i see the guy for the first time.

and i bet he's enjoying braid more than some of you that "really" understood it.

if i'm playing a game with others, this is the sort of reaction i wanna see. amazement and laughter. so you keep on whining and let others enjoy the game how the hell the please.

I dont think anyone really objects to a drunk/stoned kid playing Braid and being incomprehensable about it. Mabye they dont like them reviewing things on Youtube while doing it. I think they just hate having to think that those people play games like Braid.

Like how he describes it that you dont have to do anything and you just rewind time. Its cretins like that, that watch family guy 3 years late and quote it out of context, or play Halo 3 and turn it too mainstream, or "Dont complete the story of GTA4"; Wankers. Sure it seems elitist but admit it you hate the fact that the internet and the increasing popularity of games mean more obscure or Hardcore aimed games are experienced by casual gamers to think to appreciate them.

I can probally accept them playing it if I wasn't reminded how wrong he was by a video on Youtube. Ah well a sale is a sale.

I maintain hope that his entire career is an incredibly elaborate satirical construction. That said, I laughed SO HARD at that video.

This saddens me.

Bet he can't beat it. Then he'd be like "Yo, this shit's stupid!" and then the game is stupid because he can't beat it.

but... he doesn't even know music... or rap. he made one song that one guy thought was cool and somehow he made money off of it, now he has no other ideas and is desperate to find a new carrier... hey! Dtoid! Hire him and use him as a punching bag of fun!

Man, that was probably the funniest/saddest thing I have ever seen, and I watched all of that idiotic Tetris Bros. video. I can't say I'm disappointed that morons like him are playing Braid- if anything, it means Blow's getting paid. What bothers me is that he didn't get the idea that it's a puzzle game- it has almost nothing in common with Mario, business suit or not. I do wonder how many people are going to buy Braid because of this video, though.


...Oh, yes, and his "family friendly" songs are an aural crime against humanity. There is good rap, there's bad rap, and then there's Soulja Boy.

Am I the only person who thinks they're actually parodying themselves? Maybe I'm giving the guy too much credit.

WAY too much credit. There's no way in hell that that's not genuine.

That video makes me want to do things that might be misconstrued as a hate crime in some states.
