Braid PC Coming to Steam
by Chris Faylor, Feb 25, 2009 9:37am PSTJoining Stardock and its Impulse platform, Valve today announced that the PC release of Jonathan Blow's time-shifting platformer Braid will also hit Steam on March 31.
The Steam release of Braid will pack Steam achievements and community features. As a response to internet whining, the game will sell for $15, the same price as last year's Xbox Live Arcade version, instead of the $20 price point that was originally announced.
"Braid is arguably the strongest example of what can be accomplished by an independent game designer," said Valve business director Jason Holtman.

Things like changing the percentage the developers make off of steam sales to be much more favorable to Valve, keeping prices artificially inflated, throwing their weight around with requirements, Valve selling to someone, Valve going out of business, Valve getting hacked, Valve having server issues, etc...
Seems unlikely, but it's the risk we run by using them exclusively. Microsoft pulls a lot of this type of shit with XBLA.
