EDGE: Journey Review

Journey is an experience that – like Dan Pinchbeck’s ghost story, Dear Esther – pushes at the boundaries of what you consider to be a game. There’s an objective of sorts: a mountain looms over the horizon whenever your shawl-covered wanderer is outside. But bar the odd collectible, there are few distractions from this pilgrimage, little in the way of mechanics to learn, and only the most cursory of puzzles to solve. Journey doesn’t really want to be played. It certainly doesn’t want to be mastered. It wants to be experienced. And, most importantly, it wants to be shared. 8/10

I'm in between surprised & not surprised.
.
Among all the amazing scores of 10s & 9s, also some 8s, EDGE gave this game that score.

Good score nevertheless.

Sorry EDGE, Journey is a solid 10/10 metatric

The hell it is, lol. Judging from the reviews so far it's as light on complexity, challenge and content as its spindle-legged, tea cosy characters. All it shows is Chen can basically release anything at this point and idiots will lap it up as 'art'.

Haha someone on a different review already guessed an 8/10 from edge! Not a bad score, edge are boring, because you know a ps3 game is either 7 or 8

[ginsunuva]

That would be me.

Edge always subtracts 2 from the average score for ps3 exclusives.

[Daver]

edge are not gamers, Im not saying that because of that score in particular their scores in general never result of the games worth.
