Review | Journey [Default Prime]

When was the last time a game took you to a faraway land that seemed organic and real from the second you set foot in it? When was the last time you grew to love a digital companion, especially one whom never once uttered a single word? When was the last time you felt elation, fear, serenity, and sadness from just a few presses of one or two buttons? When was the last time a game experience was just so magical, so unique, and so visceral that you even forgot that there was a television separating you from a world? For many gamers, Journey sets the stage for an emotional tour de force that games have not seen in a long time.
