I've heard a lot of good things about Braid for a while now. This is actually the first time I've finally seen this game in action and it looks pretty solid.
Not much else is looking that good this week. I was excited for this week's Virtual Console releases, but it looks like Nintendo hates everybody and changed the lineup at the last second. Oh well, at least there's Splatterhouse 2. What's looking sw33t to you this week?

Wow, I didn't realize how controversial the new Hannah Montana and Cheetah Girls games were!
I'll probably be picking up Braid and then finally getting around to playing Condemned 2. For those of you that are interested, Gamestop just dropped the price on Condemned 2 to $19.99 new and $17.99 used -- you can get an extra 20% off (26% with Edge card) with a coupon over at CheapAssGamer. I wish I hadn't bought the game last week.... grumble grumble.
Ya looks like Braid is it this week. Always strange when the only thing I'm interested in is an arcade title. That will be a habit this August, though.

Braid looks really trippy, totally worth picking up
Damn it.
