Braid on the PSN?

BRAID is one of those games I've been itching to play- a 2D puzzle-platformer in which you manipulate time to solve the puzzles.

I've been looking into the subject of "Can Video Games be Art?" for a Dissertation I'm panning on writing and almost everywhere I look this title pops up.


Toad was never the same after hitting puberty.

So after trawling through the internet for weeks (it turns out it's quite a large place) I finally found this interesting nugget of information regarding it's release on the PSN.

"A listing on USK -- a German ratings website similar to the ESRB -- reveals that Braid will come to the PSN via publisher Hothead Games. IGN confirmed this report with Hothead Games earlier today, but further details are still forthcoming."


Can you spell "Awesome"?

Amazon Selling Gran Turismo 5 For £17.59 (Updated)

untitled

It could just be a mistake but Amazon have listed Gran Turismo 5 for £17.59, thinking more about it this could be the price for the PSP version, so be quick and pre order now because it does say pre-order price guarantee under the price. Click on the image to go to the Amazon page.


Also after looking towards the bottom of the page in the customer reviews it seems a few people are stating the release date will be September 25th 2009.

***UPDATE***
Amazon have since changed the price to £37.96

The Ultimate Fanboy

This guy is the ultimate PS3 fanboy on YouTube and possibly the world, but in some of his videos he does speak a lot of truth, so i suggest watching them (over 100 video’s) even if it’s just for a laugh. Below is the latest but it might be worth checking out the first video before watching this one. One very crazy guy

I think the video below is the first he did on gaming
