A friend gave me an unused Steam activation key for this, and I'm playing it now.

This may be one of those overlooked best games of the year.   :fr:

Lot of fun, this.

I just got this as part of the latest Humble Indie Bundle.  Haven't fired it up yet.  Been to enthralled with Super Meat Boy and Braid.

That's the same bundle my friend got.  But he bought Bastion awhile back, and decided I'd enjoy it more than his other friends, so I got a cool free game out of it.  :D

If he hadn't, I probably would have bought it eventually, one way or another.

That last bundle had some crazy good games, I'm sorry I missed it.

Psychonauts!  And Lone Survivor looks good.

I bought the bundle specifically for Bastion, Braid, Super Meat Boy, and Limbo.  Even when Psychonauts was released years ago on the PS2 I never gave it much mind so it was a nice bonus.  I had never heard of Amnesia till that bundle and after watching the trailer for it holy shit am I glad I now own and can play it

I've always wanted to play Braid, but I interviewed the creator for an article a couple of years back and he's a total prick.

That's not entirely uncommon for creative folk though.  JTB was a tool, but he writes good books.

One can dislike the man, while appreciating their work.  ^_^

Ha, no doubt. No doubt. But every time I ALMOST buy Braid, it's enough to make me put it off or look at another title.

Spill the beans. I want to hear the dirt about this guy who made a pretentious Mario platformer.

Ah, I'm really overstating it. He wasn't a monster or anything.
