Braid may come to the PSN after the end of 'timed exclusivity' (source)

QUOTE

There's one downloadable game that's been the talk of everyone in the industry lately: PixelJunk Eden Braid. Unfortunately, PS3 owners are currently unable to try the XBLA game that has gripped so many gamers. The puzzle-platform game has been praised by critics for its innovative and satisfying puzzles which involve the manipulation of time.  

According to GameFocus, Braid may arrive on PSN later on, once a timed exclusivity contract with Microsoft is finished. Johnathan Blow, developer of the game, also added that while a PSN version is possible, a WiiWare version is not, due to the system's limited memory resources. Hopefully, with enough fanfare from PS3 owners, we'll be able to see Braid on our system in the not-too-distant future.

It's the closest thing to Games as Art that I could really find acceptable (not a bit fan of Flow or Eden). Fun puzzles to boot (well from what I played anyway).

You didn't like Eden at all? I think Eden is amazing everything from the visuals to the music to the simple game mechanics.

Not that I totally disliked it, but I really didn't care much for the game. After playing the demo for about an hour (I was filling in all the those puzzles in those 3 available stages), I realized that I wasn't having that much fun. I might still get it eventually to unlock some trophies, but it's not on my must get list at the moment.
