Indie darlings, prepare for much joy and fanfare:Braidis finally coming out this week for XBLA! While the game may not be everyone’s cup of tea, it satisfied notoriously-hard-to-please features editorAnthony Burch, and if you make that guy happy, it’s kind of, you know, a miracle.

As much as I hate to mention it, it seems like I would be evading it otherwise:Braidcosts 1200 points, which is exactly the price that wasspied for it last week via Japanese sources. Microsoft later denied that price, but here it is. Of course, the immediate question on the lips of all hungrily waiting for it will be if Microsoft fibbed aboutCastle Crashersas well. Can we really expect to pay 1800 points for it? I sense an uproar from the rabble, coming to your message boards andcblogsvery soon.
