Lol, taking looser seriously is silly, I just like to prod. As a whole that level of trolling is so beneath me, where the hell is our PS3_FTW level trolls?

Same

$15 just sounds like way too much

Not necessary. Journey is one of those "artsy"games like Dear Esther, Flower, The Path, etc. It really depends if you get suck into it. Might be worth it if you are suck into the world of Journey and will explore it alot.

I tend to appreciate art a bit more when I don't need to pay for it.

Or when at least has some variety

Journey seems to lack in variety, it is only 2 hours of walking in a desert, the art is nice, but is not the best i have seen, not be a long shot

People told me LIMBO was art but the game was piece of trash and probably should've been those $1 iPhone games. I finished that game in 3 sittings, 30 minutes each.

See. This is why it baffles me when these games get such high scores.

I mean okay.. they're different.. have cool premises.. but if they're not FUN what's the god damned point?

Attempts at being artsy lol. They are good games that sometimes get way too high scores for what they actually are.

Again it really depends if you get suck into it by say the presention, world, atmosphere,etc.These games are definitely not for everyone and varies. And Limbo was pretty nice. It had some nice puzzles and a great and eerie world to go through.

Puzzles in LIMBO? It was all trial-and-error platforming. The idea of LIMBO's world was creative, but it was utilized terribly by the developers. The game has no story, the only "scary" thing about the game is the spider, and it has no thought/meaning put into it. What a wasted opportunity. Thank god I bought it on sale for 600 MSP because LOL @ anyone who paid 1200 MSP. When people say "all flash no substance" they probably think of a CoD clone, but all I can think of is LIMBO.

I admit the trial and error nature of this game got annoying at times but it wasn't terrible overall. And it does have a story it just not thrown at you. It a story that leaves it to the player's imagination to figure what it is world and who is the boy or that girl at the end. As for being scary well I don't think it was meant to be scary, at least I didn't think it was.

This. This. 50 times this.

Hypocrites. I thought downloadable games don't count? And I'll bet most of the people in this thread creaming their jeans won't even buy it.

you cry too much about cows, way too much

No, those don´t count. Nobody is fighting against it

And the remarks like Heil´s one are just to annoy people, and damn he is good at it just to see post like this =/

I don't like hypocrites, no matter how much people are trying to play it off like they aren't.

Just pointing it out. Don't worry, I don't care about it as much as you think.

Hmm, I tried 5 minutes of it at Eurogamer Expo last summer, and didn't really think much of it at all - so my interest has waned. Granted it was only 5 minutes and I wasn't sitting down, but maybe will check out a trial if there is one.

Another blow for the 360.

tenaka2

Sure, a 2 hour game that also costs 15$ is a real big blow

Its an AAAE :D

360 has nothing except family kinect games, all its core exclusives are gone. Your anger and jealousy over this game is very very obvious.

PSN

2 AAAE
7 AAE

XBLA

2 AAAE
16 AAE

I was under the impression PSN/XBLA games don't count in the metagame.

It's reviewed by itself and not compared to other games (Since it's unique). Look at Dear Esther.
