Journey (PSN), from thatgamecompany!

[myskaros]

I almost made the mistake of getting the LE edition with the extras. It looked sweet, but the cashier knew his stuff and convinced me to get a better game.... I forget which game though.

Apparently neither game was worth it then

I haven't finished Flower yet. Every couple months I'll bust it out and beat a level, then lose myself to philosophical contemplation. Don't get me wrong, I think it's an awesome game, but a hyperactive guy can only take so much serenity before needing to resume filling up my explosions quota.

Well, maybe it takes two hours to complete, but you can have fun playing it again for a long while. :s

I'd say that replaying it and finding new people online might be a great replay factor for this game.

[leinaud]

Well look at it this way; the price of movie tickets are steadily going up and for a premium showing time, they are going to be pushing $15 (it already is at that here in Japan) for just a mere 2 hours of entertainment.

It's all relative really.

Well, there's numerous ways I could pick that apart, as although things are relative, this isn't a relative length:cost ratio for a game.
You could compare to to cinema tickets, but games also require an upfront investment in the form of a platform to play the games on in the first place, therefore you effectively spread that cost of the console amongst all of the purchases made for it. Going to see a movie simply doesn't have that, as you don't have to pay for anything else before you can there that will be reused for future purchases.

I've probably not made it very clear, but it's difficult for me to explain for some reason. I'm not getting the right wording in my head.

I see what you are saying and although I would love to get into a great philosophical and consumer debate, I would not rather derail the thread and will simply acknowledge out differences

For me, I personally don't see the value in a2hr game whether $15 or $5 IMO.

@ Leinaud:

What is the samurai chick from? Looks familiar, almost reminds me of Cloche from Ar Tonelico 2. Same artist?

[leinaud]

It is one and the same Cloche and it was found from the artist てるみぃ on Pixiv. I do believe that they drew it and not Nagi but it is really hard to tell but I have never seen anything directly from Nagi that is close to this. Check out his/her work, it is all REALLY well done IMO.

Huh, I thought so. Now that I remember, I think that was one of her costumes from the game.

The game will be available tomorrow for PS+ subscribers. More details:

[Shizuka]

It's now available on the US, EU, JP and BR PSN Stores for everybody! Enjoy!

[PringlesXD]

I'd buy it, but I don't feel like it. I guess I'll just buy it later.

[raspberrylicious]

I want it, but it's so much money!

[Shizuka]

If I had enough money, I'd get it right away, but with ToGF and $50 PSN Card for Vita games, I can't afford it right now.

[PringlesXD]

Oh well, I've seen a few videos, and I'm buying it.

[Shizuka]

That was fast.

[PringlesXD]

Yeah. Downloading it now. I should have bought Flower instead, since it's more relaxing and perfect for me right now, but oh well.

I could not even get through the review of that game it was so boring. It looks like one of those "so deep its good" type things that if you do not like it then your not cool enough to like it crap.
