Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Limbo is a game by PlayDead Studios that is being released for the Xbox Live Arcade on July 21st. It will cost 15 U.S. dollars, which translates to 1200 Microsoft FakeBux. A few things we can discern from the trailer: it features a little boy. It has stark black and white visuals. It is unsettling.
The first reviews from gaming magazines are out, and the one I happen to have access to is the corporate shill of a magazine, GameInformer!
As you enter its world, it has that unusual quality of a dream that is slowly transforming itself into a nightmare.... There is no music.... Each time you think you have a grip on where you are, who is chasing you, or even the nature of the world, everything changes.... The only constant is the extreme peril.
I think it will be great. Anyone else looking forward to it? Or perhaps you think it will suck balls. Tell me your opinions. I crave them
Seeing that made me want to play the game. It looks gimmicky in snippets but once you see the gameplay for a length of time you see how much they devoted to the tension and the pacing. I even love that there is no "game over" death screen, just a quick and silent fade out and a fade in to your last position.
Also yes, Braid is pretty damn pretentious. But if you ignore the little rooms with the exposition books, the game is very enjoyable! It is also damn gorgeous.
I feel Braid is pretentious in the same way reading a book is putting on airs. It's possible, but it's also possible that the person is just reading a goddamned book
The storyline of Braid read like a 13 year old trying to write philosophical slash fiction where Oppenheimer fucks a princess and a dinosaur simultaneously.
Anyway Dig, how many microsoft monies are we talking about for this bad boy?

Looks like it's going to be 15 US dollars, which I believe is 1200 Xbox fakebux points.
I actually thought Braid was excellent before I read about the man who created it.
What does that have to do with anything?
Hemmingway was an abusive drunk who whored around until finally drinking himself to death. Why the fuck would what who the guy who made it is matter in the slightest?

And solid Bones, I'm betting this will pull a Braid and be released on both PSN and Steam if it proves to be a hit.

I mean the subtext is kinda interesting.
But good lord putting up with that writing was horrendous.

but oh welp
Let's all just agree to disagree on Braid and instead talk about how awesome Limbo is going to be and how sad it is that Wimble will not be playing it

Just let me buy the damn game. Your fake currency confuses and enrages me and I'd just like to hit a button and be like "buy this shit".
But no, you can only buy 500 or 1000 points and games are 400 or 800.
Satans..... hints..... I'm a mo bro!
If it makes you feel any better though, looks like the PS3 will be getting
and I am super duper jealous. Here is a preview article!

(Though I do realise that it is as much as I paid for Braid)

But Silohette'd (sp?) and somehow even creepier.
