    Has anyone played this yet? I'm downloading the BETA now, looking forward to seeing what it is like. From what little I've seen it looks good. I was a big fan of Flower.

    Looks brilliant, guessing you got the code because of flower. Lucky you.
    Journey is the next exclusive PlayStation 3 title from the talented folks over at thatgamecompany. With Journey, they're trying something different with the online component as there is no way to chat, no matchmaking and you won't even see PSN IDs. You are limited in the way you can communicate with other players you come across in your adventure and it's totally up to you if you even want to work with others.

    It's an odd concept, but it's one you yourself can check out by grabbing a beta code right here (North America only). This beta is extremely limited and the only other way you can get in is through the PlayStation Blog and PlayStation Plus subscribers who were one of the earliest adopters of thatgamecompany's first game, Flower.

    The beta runs through July 12 giving you plenty of time to experience the game that easily blew my mind when I played it.

    I say that is right. I bought Flower the first day it came out.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,812 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Just looked at my download list, I bought flower on the day it came out (12th Feb 2009) and I didn't get a beta invite. Didn't get one for infamous 2 either when I should have, not happy. I have email notifications on as well.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,738 ✭✭✭Grumpypants


    Played through the beta, its brilliant but has anyone got any idea what its about ?

    Love sliding down the side of the dunes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,812 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    WTF is going on? :pac:

    Was actually really excited when I remembered this was out today.

    Then I discovered it was a week exclusive to PS Plus subscribers.

    Dear Sony: I hate you.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,812 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Just finished it, wow amazing game. Don't think game is the best way to describe it though


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,049 ✭✭✭unkymo


    I'll have to wait another week but will be getting it. Avoiding all videos,reviews and pictures until then!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    I want this game so ****ing bad, might go to PSN+ to get it today.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,265 ✭✭✭RangeR


    Downloaded this morning. Today dragged by. Might have been the LONGEST day of the year so far. Should have taken the day off work. Only one hour to go, though :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,645 ✭✭✭Daemos


    How much will it be without PSN+ ?

    It's the same price. PSN+ got it yesterday. Everyone else gets it next week.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,645 ✭✭✭Daemos


    ...and how much is that? :o No access to a PS3 right now


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,265 ✭✭✭RangeR

    €12.99. Premium PSN price...


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,983 ✭✭✭mystic86


    Just finished this game, unfortunately it only took 1 hour 35 mins.

    On the plus side... WOW, fantastic 'Journey'!

    First 20 mins I hadn't a clue what I was doing!

    The soundtrack is absolutely excellent, must try and get it.

    Graphics are excellent too.

    Most of all it's just one of those gaming experiences you don't come by too often, very very enjoyable.

    It's the gaming equivalent of just putting on a relaxing tune and letting yourself drift away. The graphics, the music, the sheer bliss of the game... it's just an essential download.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,265 ✭✭✭RangeR


    Simply Fantastic


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,645 ✭✭✭Daemos


    I know it's by the same people who did Flower so isn't a game in the traditional sense, but it seems an awful lot of money for not much gameplay. I think I'd rather go back and finish Flower [if I can get unstuck from where I stopped last time] and wait for this when it's in a sale

    Quality over quantity

    Everyone with a PSN+ account is banned until next week.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,812 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Our playstation mod doesn't even have a plus account? For shame


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,983 ✭✭✭mystic86


    I just want to comment on the price, while I kind of see that compared to other games 13 euro seems a lot for a short game, I have to say I have payed as much, more including travel, at the cinema that lasted around the same amount of time but were vastly inferior experiences to say the least - though I know it's far from like for like here. Also I can see myself replaying this game several times. Just saying... :)
