ok i stumbled across this little gem while browsing Xbox live arcade.
available as a demo and the full game costs 1200 ms points (quite steep but well worth it)

its basically a puzzler where you have to collect the bits of a jigsaw from each world and you can rewind time with the x button and you use this to do certain bits within the game, in one world you get to slow time down. in one puzzle theres an unreachable bit on a screen but when the jigsaw is complete it creates a shelf in order to reach the last piece.

it will have you saying `wtf` at some levels and is a real hair puller, but hey dont take my word for it go and download the demo and im convinced you will buy it after a try (unless you hate puzzlers of course)

review here...

Braid Review (Xbox 360)

I tried it after you suggest it and it is very fun and quite interesting, i like the little books at the beginning of the world saying about the story and about human nature and the world etc.
I liked the arty and retro style feel but with a chilled out twist, its kind of a mix of prince of persia with heart of darkness (PSX) and i will buy it once i get some money as it is quite expensive but i think its worth it considering the quality and what seems to be a very big game!

	emma roids's Sig:click this link, build my city. thanks When we grew up and went to school There were certain teachers who would Hurt the children in any way they could By pouring their derision Upon anything we did And exposing every weakness However carefully hidden by the kids But in the town, it was well known When they got home at night, their fat and Psychopathic wives would thrash them Within inches of their lives. awww bless em oblivion imperial tower jump
