    Now, i know everyone has an xbox here, but there are definitely some people who own a PS3.

    so, Journey, freaking wicked-sick.
    from the guys who made flower - thatgamecompany - is Journey. I'd start to describe it for you but, damn, if a picture is a thousand words, there ain't enough internet for a description in full.

    the music is great:
    Journey Soundtrack - Woven Variations - YouTube

    gameplay:
    Journey [PS3] - Halls of Blue Gameplay Clip - YouTube


    anyone else have it? played it?
    what's your opinion?

    i REALLY want to get it, but i haven't been able to justify the £11 that it costs on the PS Store ...

    Is it worth the money?
    How long is it?

    I gladly dropped my cash for Limbo / Braid / Bastion / Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet, so ...

    Limbo and Bastion are two of my all-time favourite games.

    so worth it. if you ever think games as more than just a medium for 'spolsions then you have to get this.

    On that note then, you should get Fez.

    IT IS ****ING AMAZING.

    Best soundtrack in a game for the last few years.

    I'd love to play this game but no PS3. :( Hopefully they'll eventually port it, but from what I've read it's unlikely since Sony basically owns the title.

    This looks pretty interesting. I also do not have a ps3. But I have been thinking about getting one. Need to play Uncharted 2 and 3 and MGS4. This is looking like another reason to get one.


    You must be from New England lol

    Mind if I necro bump this? I don't want to make a new topic.

    I played it for the third time today, before I give the PS3 I'm borrowing back.

    Oh man, this is easily one of the best games, or works of media even that I've ever played. I'm considering buying a used PS3 if only for Journey. It's definitely worth trying to get your hands on this if you have the appreciation for a deeper and more artistic story and adventure-based approach to a game.

    I got the soundtrack and agree with QKT, Apotheosis is the best, though I wouldn't listen to it until you get to that point in the game; it makes it oh so satisfying.

    To add more weight to this bump, I'd add that they released a collector's edition only a week or so ago:
    Amazon.com: Journey Collector's Edition: Video Games

    It also has Flower and Flow, and while I haven't completed either of them, I've played a bit of each and found myself liking them as well. It looks well worth it, if you have a PS3. I got more out of that game than many AAA titles that cost me four times as much.

    That's too bad. You're missing out on a great game, assuming you have an emotional range greater than a snail. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

    Anyway, QKT, I saw that, and I'm really interested in it. I'm working towards becoming a Concept Artist, or something similar eventually so the Art of Journey in book form sounds freakin' amazing.
