The highly anticipated game
Braid has been earmarked for XBox Live Arcade. I'm pretty pumped as I've been chomping at the bit for 3 months - ever since Graham at
Arsecast (from whom I stole the titlescreen) previewed the PC build
and produced a fantastically comprehensive teaser review - with audio commeentary!
It sounds like a Metroid-esque platformer with timeshifting elements. Can't wait!

Today, Emergent announced a version of the Gamebryo Engine for the Wii. With little fanfare.
What do you consider a 'big announcement'. Halo 4? GTA 5? Wetrix 2? Most people think just that way - a sequel to a game or franchise that they enjoy. The reason is the promise of a good game, because it's based on concepts that already work. Because the dev team have a solid starting point as far as concept, story, control, character... there's a better chance of a game being good, because they have a solid start in some departments.
It's being overlooked, though, that this announcement is even more exciting than if Rockstar had announced GTA 5 for the Wii...

Sorta an aid for my girlfriend. Feel free to skip this if you're not her... unless you really care too much about what I want.
