Forums - Sony Discussion - Journey (PSN) reviews rolling in - Highest rated PSN title ever?

Tagged games:

I hope you all have fun with it, but I seriously don't get these reviews. It must have quite a few positive aspects, but to ME (NOTE: IMO!) it looks sooo borrrrring!

I watched this video and I had to skip a few minutes to actual see something happening.

what makes this game unique? I played Splosion Man and loved it for being entertaining 2D plattformer, I played Braid and thought it was a great plattformer with really cool puzzle elements, I played Super Meat Boy and yelled at my TV whenever I failed at a level, but still liked it. Limbo had a unique atmosphere that really made it unique. I still have to find out what makes Journey a good game. Sure as hell it did not happen in these 20 minutes.

 

*edit* and if it is really 3 hours long, I just watched 11% of the whole game!

Based on your list of games you tried and enjoyed from downloadable services you have not played Flower, and this is the same kind of thing.  It's unique because it's beautiful and poetic.  Gameplay isn't their forte, it's all about atmosphere and they make some of the best.  

In the end it'll obviously have its detractors just like Flower did, but I'll enjoy every moment.  

 

OT: on the thread title, I don't think there's a chance in hell particularly if you include iOS games which get metas in the mid 90's quite often.

I get the feeling you never did play flOwer did you? These kind of games, you actually have to PLAY first hand to get a feel why everyone gushes.

I did not know this is a must-have to be allowed to play this game.

Those are some amazing scores. Can't wait to play this.

What he meant to say was, he didn't know he had to play ps3 games in order to talk shit about them.

And he's right. He has a right to talk all kinds of shit about something he knows nothing about so long as he writes "IMO"

As long as they don't produce the games I like, I don't even care. Why do you think I dislike the game only for being PS3 exclusive? Heck I don't even dislike it, I just think it looks boring. I do not dislike games that are not available on my console of choice so stop making this s... stuff ... up. Thanks.

Probably not it has to beat out World of Goo who is sitting at 94 for Wiiware. Though I expect it to end high 80's to low 90's either way I'll be picking this up after I finish Flower.

I hate you....

the iOS vesion of World of Goo is sitting at 96....

after saying that.. I once love you again..

yea both iOs version are at 96 metas .. with 6 reviews each

it's easier to keep a high meta with so few reviews
