PSN Store Update Nov/12/2009 – The Braid Edition

Braid finally makes it’s way to PSN after Johnathan Blow’s indie masterpiece made it’s debut to critical praise on XBLA and PC shortly thereafter.  Joining in on the “new to the PSN party” is Star Trek D-A-C along with a corresponding demo just in time for the Blu-Ray release of the recent Star Trek movie.   Other demos for the PS3 come in the form of NCAA Basketball 10 and MX vs. ATV Reflex.  DLC this week offers free content for Rag Doll Kung Fu and PAIN with new characters for each.  For the PSP,  new content comes in the way firstly with the introduction of the Pinball Heroes series based on popular Playstation franchises and we also see the release of a new mini game entitled Bubble Trubble as well as Atlus’ port of the Japanese title Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble.

One other note is just to make sure you visit the Playstation Home Theatre as early as this Friday Nov/13/2009 to catch the debut of a brand new Final Fantasy 13 trailer.  Sean C

Downloadable Games
Braid ($14.99)
Braid is an artful puzzle-platformer where the player manipulates the flow of time in strange and unusual ways. In each world, time behaves differently, and it is time’s strangeness that creates the puzzles. The time behaviors include: rewinding, independent time streams, time that is tied to space, parallel realities, time dilation, and perhaps more.
Braid treats the player’s time as precious; there is no filler. Each puzzle shows the player something new about the game world.
