Braid – only 800 MS points this week Braid is an XBLA game released by the indie developer Jonathan Blow just last year, and upon its release it became a hit.  There was some controversy surrounding the price tag of 1200 points, and since I bought it this week when it was only 800, after [...]

February 5, 2009
Tags: , , , ,

The Slip is the latest album by the famous industrial band known as Nine Inch Nails.  It is definently a different sound than their previous album, Ghosts I-IV, and even very different than any of their previous albums.  The album opens with a slow 80-second track that, for a little bit, make you check your [...]
