You know, I haven't bought Braid yet. I should really check out a few more of these XBLA titles.

Did you play castle crashers yet? Great fun.

I love the game, although it is a little short for $15. Some of the puzzles are so hard but there is a great sense of accomplishment once you figure them out. I can honestly say that I figured them out on my own (I would have given up and looked online had my computer worked at the time lol) except for the 7 secret stars.

Didn't know there was a Braid demo. I'll have to check that out. I downloaded Castle Crashers last night so i'll be playing that today.

Question, when i shut down the 360 last night it didn't shut down completely. Is this because I was downloading a demo? Does it stay on to continue downloading?

[sticky doja]

You can set the 360 to download and then turn off after it finishes its download. I'm not sure where the option to turn this setting on is but I'm sure that was the case last night for you.

I focus-tested this game and it's pretty damn addictive. I'll be getting it when it's out on XBLA.

It's difficult to describe the appeal, but it involves tetris-style block stacked up throughout the levels that can be destroyed when standing right next to them. Of course, the danger is the ones above WILL fall down if they're resting on nothing so you'll need to be tunneling through fast without getting crushed.

I'd definitely recommend it to everyone. There's actually a ton of different gametypes in it but all revolving around the same concept of anti-tetris block destroying.

I'll definitely be on the lookout for this.

Yeah if its like Castle Crashers or Braid I will def look for this. I think thats the only reason I use my 360 now, for XBLA games.
