Journey - Collector's Edition - [PlayStation 3] (Video Game)

Customer Review

I bought a few months ago and Journey had today feel the need to play again. Just running the credits and the feelings that I now carry with me, bring me to submit a review.

First of all: The Collector's Edition has three games, but I would like to hereby express only to Journey. Why? I admit to have the other two games (Flower and flOw) only alluded to, but I maintain, however, that they can not compete with Journey to mile - because Journey is not only a graphic, but also an emotional masterpiece.

In Journey to play a nameless character with a red (or, if you're a bit more experienced white) sheath that awakens in a desert and nothing could be further than jump in and give melodic sounds. One does not know at this moment, where you come from or why you are in the desert - we know only the goal of a mountain in the distance. So order to break his journey, a journey that will be probably not soon forget.
You can learn on this trip that there are creatures who help one and as creatures and want to hurt themselves this. Although everything is kept very simple and stylized (the creatures consist only partly of glowing pieces of fabric), you start but slow to bond with the allied beings as well as the 'enemy' to fear. Gradually we learn even more about the history, while leaves much freedom of interpretation, but each is likely to touch because it tells something that occurs well known to every man (but details I do not want to run, that is freedom of interpretation;)).

"Fair enough," you can now think "but well worth it for ever to play the game online?"
The simple answer to this question: yes!
Journey would be only half as impressive, if not for the online access. While you can meet on his journey more than one person, but at the same time, only one of them. This is simply throwing dice and you can not communicate, except with the tones that can be of the figures - and yet you start with this stranger to enter into a community that are otherwise nowhere will.
It suddenly feels obliged to help each other. Moreover, you help WANTS him, because you do not want to be alone. I still remember, as a game partner has suddenly disappeared during my first run and left me alone. I suddenly felt an emptiness that I, before he met me, had not noticed. And suddenly, a while later, I heard a familiar sound in the distance. The happiness that we obviously felt both is indescribable. We have encircled us angesungen, jumped - joy that one would otherwise share with anyone who is a completely foreign. We both have us then no longer separated and the entire game and finished it together, what has brought me both one of the most beautiful and berührensten hours of my life, and a new friend in the PSN (whose name, incidentally, but not until after graduation the game gets).

Although it is a short game, but it's perfect to play it every now and then in between. Even after months, I always come back happy and you always learn again to know new people - and new opportunities to close the game.

In short, Journey is an experience. Journey is an adventure. Something that is difficult to describe - you have to play themselves. One has even feel this sadness of losing someone whom you do not know and the joy that is simply someone nearby. One has even feel this sense of relaxation and satisfaction when the credits roll and you think about what you have just experienced since.

In my opinion: One of the best games ever made and a true work of art that you will always be happy to hand.
