If you want to know why Braid got 9.5 you'd have to spend more time with it. You can't judge the quality of the entire game after just playing the demo. After playing it you might still decide it didn't deserve 9.5. GS reviews are the opinion of one person. Your opinion could be very different to his. If you want to know why he gave it 9.5 you could read the review.

I don't know why, but your post bothered me enough to respond.

I am not a Braid sympathizer. I recently just bought it myself, and beat it in one sitting. It was a very unique paltformer that challenges most of today's ideas of what a game should and could be. However, it's obviously not the greatest game of all time.

BUT...it's not a Mario wanna-be. That comment proves you did not grasp the concept of the game...at all. Not even a little bit. I'm not saying you're simple, but to reduce Braid to "a Mario clone" is a simpleton thing to say, and makes me question whether you should be playing creative games at all.

However, comments like yours help shed some light on why stupid games thrive in this generation.

The worst game that I played has to be none. I haven't played any bad arcade games yet as I only download the trials to games that interest me.

Soulja boy doesn't like Braid either so you're not alone I guess in that department. As for me the worst arcade games I have played are Undertow, Yaris, and Small Arms.

well a demo is suposed to make me want to get the game, not hate it. Im srry but the demo didnt enough not to make me get it. like the Bioshock demo, before I played that demo I was like I will never get bioshock but then I played the demo and I almost went crazy cuz it was so good. but if the game is better than the demo Im not going to buy it.

Have you ever considered the possibility that Braid just isn't your type of game? Just because some people like it it doesn't mean you will too. All I was saying is that you should spend some more time with it before calling it the worst game on Live Arcade. As someone else pointed out, you called it a mario wannabe. The gameplay in Braid is very different to all the mario games. You obviously don't understand what Braid is.
