We share the same tastes. Will you be my new best friend?

absolutely. besties 4 ever.

PvZ is made of pure fun. Very easy, addictive fun.
I enjoyed both World of Goo and Braid more, actually (not that the comparison is in any way useful or informative). They had a certain magic PvZ lacks completely. And better music.

Lawdy, tell me about it. I just bought World of Goo and Braid on an Impulse offer.
The former felt like Pontifex 2, while the latter was just boring (also, it had rather horrible music).

Maybe we should be arch enemies then?

right? argh i know this isn't true for everyone who liked braid, or even the majority, but i hate when people will praise something just because it's artful, and not because it works well. it's easy to make something that people thing is artistic, it's entirely harder to make effective art.
incidentally, people who try too hard to be 'cultured' annoy the hell out of me.
edit: sorry for the off topic :p

Didn't bother to read. Just wanted to shout this is a must get. Lotsa fun. :)

I think it's a huge mistake to assume people only like Braid because it's arty. It's just as a huge a mistake as it would be to like Braid because it's arty.

i know i know, i made sure to make the distinction that most people don't do that in my post
it's the ones that DO that annoy me

sweet, now i can make derogatory remarks about dragons and sheep and no one can call me racist. i'll just be like "no, it's cool, one of my best friends is a sheepdragon"
