Hothead Games have finally confirmed that the PS3 will be getting the platformer game everyone loves. Braid did what no one thought was possible and took a basic 2D platform game to the next level using a Viewtiful Joe-esque time change gameplay mechanic. The independent release was much revered when it was launched on the Xbox 360, PC and Mac almost 12 months ago and now no-one has an excuse not to play this gem. A PSP version though would be too much to ask for, I’m sure. If only the Xbox 360 could get some of the PS3’s indie exclusives ported across as well, such as Flower or Fat Princess. And not a year late.
