This happened because Tim made a mistake

The rain just falls off me, the tears just fall off me..
Surprise! This is not a post about my shiny new red hot hatred for the USA. And it's not about the professional level of FA administration team too. It's about games and retards.
Puzzle by puzzle, I'm playing Braid ( http://braid-game.com/ ) now (and by "now" I mean "these days" - I don't have too much spare time).
As with almost any other game at some point I went to IGN (there seems to be no russian reviews of Braid) just to compare the review with my own impression. The review was fine - the comments weren't.
For fuck's sake..
To make things clear: Braid costs 1200 MS points (that's about $15) while other XBLA games cost either 400 or 800 ($5 and $10 respectively, duh). And some people.. Well, a lot of people see it as another example of MS' infinite greed. Or they just don't have spare change. So they make (or at least try to convince themselves that they do) A Stance Against All That Is Evil.
Dear retards (I'm sure there are at least a few around).
This game is a piece of fine art - I know one when I know one. Not when I see one - sometimes things just aren't evident enough. And as prices for these things go, this one is low. Very low.
It doesn't matter that Braid lacks replayability. It doesn't matter that it's short. If you think that extra $5 will simply feed Steve Ballmer's gaping maw - just keep these thoughts to yourself. Shut the fuck up.

I still love Braid - and it's been long enough that I can't remember how to play all the levels.
