Last night, I tried playing Halo 3 for the first time since I played the beta and found no joy in it. I popped out of it and loaded up Braid with hopes of finishing it.
After about 4 hours of additional playing I finally conquered the rest of the game that I had until then left incomplete. Completing this portion of the game was excessively satisfying.
As they say, "All of the puzzles make sense". This isn't a game that spoon feeds you. It gives you super basic instructions and expects that you think. Overall I enjoyed it. Full review coming soon. One of the best endings ever.
