Honestly, I expected it to be pretentious garbage and Journey is legit a fantastic experience and a fine game. It'd be one of those games I'd seriously consider if I was told I could only play one game before I died. It's worth picking up, although I am not confident the graphics will carry over to PS4 without some technical issues a la Shadows of the Colossus.

It's not a port. It was redone in 1080p @ 60 fps. Or so I understand. They worked on it for almost a year.

The game is on the PS3 and runs around 15 dollars and it came with 5 other games+soundtrack+Digital Artbook if you bought the Physical release.

It has gameplay, I promise you. It's not particularly complex, but there's a part where you have to gather up some glowing objects to make a bridge and other points where you have to avoid a roaming danger. It has more gameplay than Dear Esther or the Stanley Parable, for instance, but less gameplay than Braid. Overall, though, the gameplay works REALLY well and Journey could not exist in the same manner it does if presented on any other medium. It's a good game.

VVV--Yeah you really should. I'm being vague because the game should be experienced as blind as possible.

I thought it was very true.

e: but only if you play it online because the experience is based around sharing the journey. It's still interesting alone but loses what makes it special.

I wish they had made a new game instead of visually updating an old one, being on PC would definitely allow the online component to last longer.

it's pretty lol that everyone thinks the PS4 is some ground breaking piece of technology and that cross platform games are holding what is essentially a 5 year old gaming PC back from the next level of gaming or w/e. Aside from Bloodborne half the loving games on it are HD remakes with the only substantial one being GTA V (first person, more animals, more radio). Oh man I'm so glad I bought a $400 console so I can play Destiny without load times and rebuy all of my favorite games from 2 years ago

This isn't true at all.

Look how the PC handled the new Batman game.


Oh wait it couldn't because it crashed upon loading....

Also all the PC exclusive games are lovely mobas, lovely MMos, and garbage indies. What's holding the PC back is the PC itself.

PC guys want it to be like the 16 bit era again where PCs were phenomenally more powerful compared to consoles, but consoles have caught up and you're not going to have that major a difference in performance again. While there may be slight differences in performance as afar as frame rate and draw distance, you're not really going to suffer much by buying a game on the PC that's also available on the console.


Also even given the option most PC Devs wind up making poo poo for Android and IOS now. That is the future and legacy of PC exclusive gaming.

Journey is a great game.

gently caress the PS4 for holding the PC back though. Also gently caress 8gig of GDDR5.
