Just...download it now if you have a 360. Puzzle-platformer, basically just as good in length and quality as Portal.

Played the demo. Bored me to tears. Even my ex thought it was stupid.

I know there's controversy over the cost of the game, but I think a better controversy is why people are collectively blowing it.

To each his own. It's my kind of game.

I don't really know how much the trial has...but *shrug*. I'm really on my own I guess. I enjoy racking my brain for answers to a puzzle...and I enjoy the prospect of never actually getting a chance to get a game over. The controls are so simple the game just puts you in there and gives you a teaser level to figure out how each world works differently.

In the trial you start in world/chapter 2. There were two pieces I couldn't get to, and just got fed up trying.

Ok....just the first world. I had a few moments where I almost decided to stop trying but eventually figured it out.

If you don't go for the pieces, though, then there is no reason to play the game. Most levels just allow you to go straight to the door.

For the record, it allows you to play portions of other worlds, too. You just can't play them completely. I played through everything they let you, and I was really still not impressed.I just kinda thought "That's it?"
