Braid is the best game on Xbox 360.

The game has tons and tons of symbolism.

SOTN is not an original title. 

 

However it does exist, and is in fact "on" XBLA. A step further, it has enhanced graphics and leaderboards built to function with the service.

Braid does have a ton of symbolism. However, to assert that ANY game is "obviously" or "way" better than SotN, is folly imo, and it is likely the result of an opinion created by a person who has never played said game, and possibly generalized it as "Just a Castlevania game."

I'm with sieanr on this one. It's not that Symphony of the Night isn't the best damn title on Xbox Live, hell it's better than any 360 game in existence. But it's a port and therefore doesn't really register in my mind when I think these best games up. The best title on the Wii is most definitely either Gunstar Heroes or Super Mario World, but I wouldn't count them if asked. It's just preference. Everyone knows SOTN is godly though. Then again, Braid is quickly joining the SOTN camp of "never aging gameplay".

@Dolla-You and me buddy, all day all night Castle Crashers. We'll be an unstoppable team.

 

I'll accept that explaination. Good post. I do, however, think that for a game to reach that SotN ballpark, it needs to stand the test of time. We won't know that for a while. Otherwise, again, good post. I understand that method of thinking.
