Hi All

Braid at Steam = £2.10
Braid at App Store = 59p
 
I picked up Braid with the second Humble Indie Bundle a while back. Excellent game, though here in the US on the App Store it's $5 (though the description does say 90 percent off…).
 
I rushed to buy it at the App store at a similar price a few days ago. Then realised I'd already bought it as part of a ultra-cheap Steam bundle at Xmas, and I'd also bought it as part of that same Humble Bundle (!) a few months ago.

So I've purchased the same game 3 times in roughly 3 months!

Damn you Apple for extracting my 59p from me! That's a whole 17.7p towards your utterly outrageous profits!

Maybe God will take these two redundant purchases off my *cough* *cough* *software-and-dvds-that-fell-off-the-back-of-a-torrent-lorry* divine account...

It was nice though to be able to play Braid without having to start up steam first and wait for it to do its thing.
 
I picked it up this weekend too, but I won't be able to play it until I pick up a new computer in a few months. Still, for such a low price I'm sure it's worth it.
