Braid’s price lowered for the week, laugh at the chumps who paid $15

Braid‘s high price of 1200 Microsoft Points was a cause of much debate among gamers. There’s no denying that it helped set a precedent once Microsoft realized it could get away with it, and now 1200 MS Points has become the norm for any XBLA game that threatens to be good. However, if for some reason you didn’t surrender to Microsoft’s ransom, let it be known that Braid is now available for 800 Moon Golds!

The deal is for Gold subscribers only, and will last all week. This announcement marks the return of Xbox Live’s “Deal of the Week” which means Old Man Nelson will announce another temporary price cut next week. Of course, it’s hard to call it a price cut when most of these games would have been released for 800 points anyway before MS realized how much it could nickel-and-dime customers. 

Still, if you get the game this week (or got it for free like I did) then you can laugh, laugh, laugh at the IDIOTS who bought it for full price. Oh my God what IDIOT FANBOYS!
