SPOnG Review: Journey

SPOnG: "It’s very difficult to write a review about Journey without indadvertedly sounding pretentious. But in an industry where Hollywood blockbuster storylines are shoved down our throats, big burly musclemen with incredible superpowers are our heroes and the holy grail of online multiplayer is a shotgun to the face followed by a celebratory teabagging, ThatGameCompany is the unintentional ‘hipster’ of the game development world.

The indie studio, led by game design genius Jenova Chen, has a history of creating artistic interactive titles that set themselves apart from the rest of the crowd. Flow and Flower both contained messages of evolution and nature, using simple motion control mechanics to control objects and creatures in a minimalist setting. Journey is an even bolder, and much more personable experience than its past releases." (Journey, PS3) 10/10
