Seriously, this is absolute top notch visuals and sound
may be middling play, not sure yet
the multiplayer element is fascinating

haha im not really playing anything atm it just this game looks v studio ghibli which is nice and all but is sorta shoddy as a game i guess

Lamp, Thursday, 8 March 2012 07:09 (1 year ago) Permalink

might check it out if i get a moment but good god that reviewer is an irritating cock, sounds like he's right out of qvc. "you can have all this ethereal gameplay for not 29.99, not 19.99, just 9.99, that's right 9.99! call now with your credit card details!"

We need a forks report asap.

EZ Snappin, Thursday, 8 March 2012 16:46 (1 year ago) Permalink

and 'great visuals, middling play' doesnt sell it for me

nor does fascinating multiplayer concepts

that review video was super super annoying, like to the point where I was longing for Adam Sessler

Vaseline MEN AMAZING JOURNEY (DJP), Thursday, 8 March 2012 16:47 (1 year ago) Permalink

I did read it's like 2 hours long or something.

EZ Snappin, Thursday, 8 March 2012 16:48 (1 year ago) Permalink

the review video?

by the way, check out the IGN video review if you want to bark a little in your mouth.

EZ Snappin, Thursday, 8 March 2012 16:51 (1 year ago) Permalink

haha no way, I watched one IGN video review by accident once

Suck it up and feel the pain. You'll love Gametrailers forever more.

Hello my friends. Let's talk.

oh my fucking god you weren't kidding

I told you...

EZ Snappin, Thursday, 8 March 2012 17:00 (1 year ago) Permalink

i'm hella busy for the next few days but I really do wanna play more
here's the thing: it is NOT drastically different than Flower. It's just better looking, more ingeniously designed and there's a Demons' Souls style multiplayer element. So it's almost intrinsically not the most interesting game. The puzzles I beat were fairly easy and logical and not taxing. But simple and fun and good to beat with a new voiceless friend.
So if you want a great game, this probably isn't it. But as an interesting EXPERIENCE this is a must play.

Pup Shalom Dog Costume (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 8 March 2012 18:52 (1 year ago) Permalink

not a motion controlled game though, right? (Fuck a Flower motion control shit)

EZ Snappin, Thursday, 8 March 2012 18:57 (1 year ago) Permalink

It's either motion controlled or thumbstick. Or you can kinda do both. it's a vast improvement

Pup Shalom Dog Costume (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 8 March 2012 19:02 (1 year ago) Permalink

phew!

EZ Snappin, Thursday, 8 March 2012 19:03 (1 year ago) Permalink

I am not gonna lie, I would be more interested in this game if it the soundtrack was "Lights" and "Separate Ways"

(or if the lead character suddenly turned into Arnel Pineda

This was fun! Absolutely beautiful, one of the best co-op experiences ever and engaging enough to warrant occasional revisits. Incredibly short, but worked well as something to play in one sitting. 2 hours or so.

EZ Snappin, Friday, 16 March 2012 18:46 (1 year ago) Permalink

holy poop, fun experience

gonna say it got *slightly* monotonous - yeah, even within it's near abysmal 2hr timespan - but there were certain moments where i couldn't believe how beautiful the games shots were, and the fact that it was interactive made it seem so, so, so much more engaging. $15 was something i wasn't easily willing to part with but i couldn't imagine this dropping in price within the next 4 months so it was a very 'fuck it' purchase, one that definitely made my decision to stay home this friday night much more worth it

i tagged along with a dude for near the entire game but think i glitched during the mountains & carpets end-game scenario where i flew entirely off to the side and started cascading down mountains that never were intentioned to be anything but backdrop. funny thing was, i tagged along with this guy near the *entire* time, almost never lost him.... when the game ended did it tell me that i had actually spent all that time with 5 dudes O_o

sat down and played this top to bottom and just was blown away.
lovely experience, really really engaging. hardly a game but I'm having a hard time holding that against it.

I've been thinking about how much I enjoyed this and want to give it another go. Thought I would be more sated than I am.

EZ Snappin, Monday, 19 March 2012 16:51 (1 year ago) Permalink

it's performative? I want to share it with a few people so they can experience it with me.

Wesley Crusher: Teenage F#ck Machine (forksclovetofu), Monday, 19 March 2012 16:55 (1 year ago) Permalink

can't wait to try this out

TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Monday, 19 March 2012 16:56 (1 year ago) Permalink

I would absolutely sit in a room of friends and watch this being played.

EZ Snappin, Monday, 19 March 2012 16:56 (1 year ago) Permalink

the parts nearer the end where you have to suffer and then are redeemed are really really effective

Wesley Crusher: Teenage F#ck Machine (forksclovetofu), Monday, 19 March 2012 16:57 (1 year ago) Permalink

that slow climb!

EZ Snappin, Monday, 19 March 2012 16:58 (1 year ago) Permalink

i bet if you did the climb with a partner it would go MUCH easier and i wanna try that

it is glorious to watch the heat bloom between you, and the ice melt off the scarves. SO DAMN SPECIAL!

Tom Chick rained on the Journey parade. :(

I think I liked Flower more than this game. Very pretty though. Amazing sand effects.

A Little Princess btw (s1ocki), Wednesday, 30 May 2012 18:39 (11 months ago) Permalink

def liked it better than flower. not much of a game of course but a really great experience. i've had a few Journey dreams.

the miniboss that just laughs at you while suffocating you with bees was way too hard i thought
