Forums - Sony Discussion - I am mesmerized with Pixel Junk EDEN!

Just my thoughts on a very unique, original and gorgeous PSN title that I am currently addicted to. Basically it is an artistic game that has platform elements, gorgeous colours, fantastic style and AMAZING music, [some of the best I have ever heard in a game and over 100 min of music too]! U basically are a bug that needs to grow 10 beautiful gardens, [10 levels] to complete the main garden of EDEN. The art direction and music all merges fantastically together to create intense colours and beats that are trully spectacular. Each garden looks very different and they all change colours dramatically when u collect the 5 Spectra in each level. This gives great re-play value too, as u really want to see what's next in each garden. The game has huge re-play value in the form of trophies to collect. There are 20 in total, 19 bronze and 1 silver and is the first new game to have trophy support from launch. A must buy for any fans of fast, quirky and addictive PSN titles that u can pick up and play anytime. 9/10

Tell me you don't have the music in the first level stuck in your head as I type this :D I sure do XD

Pixeljunk Eden is a steal for $10 ^^



From 0 to KICKASS in .stupid seconds.

Its a great game but some of the latter levels can be hard / annoying when your aiming for 5 spektra / all seeds..

Or attempting to get 100k pollen or 0 wasted pollen is a pain...



It's really addicting. I've definitely got my money's worth for the $10. I was #5 worldwide on the leader boards 2 days ago and have since slipped to #9. Trophies also add to the addiction factor

OT: I wonder how much of a sales spike SSHD saw from being the first game to support trophies.



@HideoK

That's a good question! I am thinking at least 25%.

The music is so good in EDEN that I was playin' last night and a new tenant from down stairs knocked on my door with a 6pk ready to party! He couldn't believe that the music was comming from a game, hehe.

I do find the gravity levels on stage 7 and stage 10 to be somewhat annoying though b/c you no longer have complete control over a jump. And when gravity changes at the worst time it is frustrating. Only got 3 spectra on garden 7 and only 2 on garden 10 so far.

100k pollen was a challenge but zero wasted pollen was actually really easy.

Here's my tip for zero wasted pollen: All you have to do is jump into the pollen prowlers and hold down X when you jump into them. This will net you all of their pollen immediately. Just don't combo too many then this tip won't work. I did 1-2 at a time. It works best going for 1.

That's hilarious! Did you end up partying?



Yeh, but strange way to meet someone!

I'm definitely enjoying this game also. If you guys haven't tried it out yet definitely give coop a try as it adds a whole new aspect to the game. I've only done 2p so far and I can't imagine how tough it would be to coordinate 3 players heh. Definitely a great game!



Just got this game and love it. Definently worth $10.

Kinda off topic: what are all the games that have trophies now?
