My twitter irks me with praise for this game.
Bulletstorm's lead designer came with excitement.
Deus Ex art director can't stop playing it.
Mass Effect producer says it's the best arcade game ever.
But my backlog is big. I must stay strong...

Speaking of achievements, regarding one of the secret one's in the PC version...
Has anybody gotten the achievement for using the Portal sentries? According to someone on the Steam forums it's obtainable by getting so many kills using it but I've had no luck with it.
Just finished this game tonight. Best downloadable game of the year by far! I'd recommend this game to anybody that has $15 to spend. Big ups to the crew at Supergiant games. They did a great job, especially in the art & music department. The entire mechanic of rebuilding the world as you walk is awesome, from a technical and art direction standpoint. My only gripe is that the story gets a little lost at times with all the narrator talk. I lost focus of the story a couple times during the play through because of how often he speaks. Still, it's pretty experimental for a video game. Nothing really comes to mind when thinking of a game that actively talks about your actions while you play, so the fact that they pulled this off was neat. So kudos if you dudes are reading this. 
As for my ending...
As for my ending...
I chose to save Zulf and evacuate. I don't do New Game+ on games (just a preference), so I thought that would be good closure for the game for me. The scene where you carry Zulf through the gauntlet and they all stop while the music sets in was bliss.

Just finished the game!
Such a great adventure from start to finish. Everything is nearly perfect.
Ran through the game with Army Carbine and Fire Bellow, best combo ever!
Onto New Game+ !
Also i didn't get the 'End Game' achievement. lol
Steam says i've finished it in 6 hours, i know it probably didn't record 2 hours.
I need to see those Portal stuff.

I chose to save Zulf and go for the evacuation plan. Seems like the most reasonable thing to do. That and Zia prefers the life after the Calamity.

Who paid you to grab Dr. Pavel?
So how do you get the
achievement?
Also it looks like there is 7 new ones, they are all hidden though.
Portal-related
I did a Who Knows Where and had like 15 turrets set up that just annihilated everything immediately but I didn't get it.

I loved this game. Bought it last week, and have beaten it twice now.

I love this game, and it's sold very well so far.
For Story leaderboards:
XBLA is at 147998
PC is at 65588
That alone isn't bad at all for a PC version that came out a month after the XBLA version, but then consider that we actually know the percentage of PC purchasers who have played the game so far:
http://steamcommunity.com/stats/bastion/achievements/
You can safely say that 92.8% of people who have purchased the game have played the game so far.
65588/.928 = 70676
So the total sales are around 218674 (at least, since probably not everyone on Xbox has played it yet)
Well deserved

Valve doesn't decide to put a game on sale, the publisher does.wilflare said:

They both do AFAIK, a publisher can initiate a sale, or Valve can recommend to a publisher that it's time to have one.
For example for the daily sales Steam recently started, I think it's safe to say it's Valve that has made a schedule for putting a new game on sale each day (and they have got permission from the publishers), not the other way around.

Yeah they organize stuff obviously, but what I was saying is that they don't have control over whether a game goes on sale or not. It's better to beg the publisher/dev for a sale.angular graphics said:
