i’m not going to lie…i’m a little disappointed at the fact that they didn’t have a midnight release for Journey…..i stayed up just so i can play it, but they didn’t release it yet…..kind of makes the whole pre ordering thing pointless…if they’re going to let you pre order it, atleast have it out by midnight….i thought that was the whole point of pre ordering a game. -.-’

@ 42 Milagres_
Finally regarding exclusives, well i agree with you, that would create a more “balanced market” we would buy or not a console not for its games but for its quality, price and offers/discounts, however that would also lead to games produced in “bulk” games that are like CoD (no disrespect for the franchise) the same for every console and that cant exploit the limits of the console, so what point in having the best processor, the best graphics processing unit, 3d capabilities, move, kinect (yes I know this one is not Sony, but you get the idea) if the game devs will not focus on taking advantage of those unique capabilities but instead will focus on making a game that can run on every platform, exclusive games are usually the ones that push the envelope.
In the end every game would be like an EA game or a THQ one…
So yes exclusive games give consoles a marketing edge but in the same time force the developers in to producing games that will in most cases become instant classics
P.S. excuse my poor english, it is not my native language and I haven’t used it in quite some time.

Well I just finished the game for the 4th time, during this 4 journeys i have experienced a new game every time, the visuals are not the best out there considering the PS3 capabilities, however they are breathtaking, the game is to short that’s also true but I cant imagine it being longer imho it has the perfect length for the type of game.
About the price yes 15 dollars seem overpriced if you haven’t played it, but once you are done with it… well I can’t complaint (:

Like Flow and Flower, Journey isn’t the sort of game you judge by how long it is. It’s the experience, which is worth every cent. It’s flawless! I especially love the silent online interactions. Very well done.

I bought Journey the moment I found out that PS+ had early access and I don’t regret the 15 dollar price tag one bit. I’m usually not one to pay full price for anything but I knew I had to have this game. I’ve played through it twice now, sadly both times on my own. The game claimed i ran into someone on my first playthough but I never saw them, dunno if i just pick slow times to play or if it’s my internet causing problems (can’t do multiplayer on a number of ps3 games for some reason) buy it, buy it now!

“Gamers are the one who lose with exclusives, when you guys will realize that?”

In a brief moment of clarity just before death, of course! I’m thinking you’re in the wrong place if you want to find gamers that aren’t obsessed with console exclusives and overly-committed fanboy/fangirl adoration for a product.

@ Mr mcbuttz you said that Sony found Rockstar before Naughty Dog. Even though Crash was released a year before GTA 1 for PS1 which was also released for Windows and GB Color .Also if you have GTA 1 case lying around you’ll see they used a different name. They changed the name to Rockstar for the the 3rd GTA on PS2 which also released for Windows at the same time as PS2 later being made for the Xbox. So how did sony find Rockstar? Naughty Dog also released a game for the Sega Genesis called Rings of Power must of been 91 or around that time. Which sucked in imo and I believe even before that with 3D0 but I think they went under a different developer name.Again how did Sony find ND? Hopefully next time your knowledge of the Sony PS brand and it’s games are in fact true before posting ignorant statements. Good thing your no V.P of a company
