Got this game as a gift a few weeks ago, and just got around to playing through it. Beat it a few minutes ago, and it might be one of the best things I've ever played, and not only because it frequently references Shadow of the Colossus.

There is no way I'm the only one on this site whose played this.

I played this game last night. It's amazing. Anyone who has a PS3 should buy and play this game. It's only $15 on PSN.

It's short and sweet, you can beat it in 2 hours, so it's not like you're making a long-term commitment to the game.

If you've played Flower (a game by the same studio), then you'll like Journey. The mechanics in Journey are very reminiscent of Flower, but it's a much deeper game.

Journey has been heralded by almost everyone as a masterpiece, but I have yet to play it.

It is on my to do list, but not anytime soon. Probably.

Nah, there's just a reference here or there to the game itself. But you should finish it regardless.

Kind of wish there was more to it. It was cool, but it wasn't worth the price.

I'm going to guess you aren't the type that sits back and enjoys sights and sounds.

That would have been more worth it. 15 to hold forward for two hours and spam the circle button was not. It was cute, it was neat, it was overrated and overpriced.

I've heard it's a masterpiece, but $15 for 2 hours is a no for me.

DVDs/Blurays and CDs are also about 2 hours of entertainment for $15.

That's because they have replayability that allows you to discover things that you might have missed before. Journey is no different. There are secret items to find and costumes to unlock as well as the fact that journeying through the game with different players makes the experience different every time. It's worth it for those times when you just want to relax with a zen game.

When i see a movie, I don't care to see it again. Django: Unchained has been the only movie I've seen twice. Still didn't buy it on dvd.
