@KamikazeSailor: If a first time player beat Braid in under 30 minutes, I'd be glad they weren't purchasing it, as they should be off working on curing cancer and world hunger.
See, this I have no problem with. It's a clever idea, done with the casual gamer in mind. But the Wii. Make a game console for casual gamers, market it to everyone, pretend you give a rats ass about the hardcore, and repeat. I'm not even saying not to mix the two (caual, hardcore) but be honest with both types of gamers, and treat your best customers with some honesty.
I just don't see how anyone ever got the idea that the Wii would be appeal to "hardcore" gamers in the first place. It seemed pretty clear to me that it was built for casuals.
The only explanation I can seem to grasp is that of Nintendo fanboys simply being blinded by Nintendo's history.
I keep forgetting that the Mirror's Edge theme is called "Still Alive" too, so I started reading thinking that the person from the Mirror's Edge song was singing the song from Portal and got excited...

1.5 hours of that was spent trying to make sense out of its nonsensical plot.

It's like when stupid pro wrestlers name themselves after something/someone that's already popular (Sting, anyone?)
I'm not listening out of protest. I'm making a note here, huge fail.

Just a reminder that if you buy any of the 3 games in the above URL, you're wasting money.
