The re-release of Journey for PS4, like the game itself, is a thing of minimalist beauty. The re-mastered version of the game arrived on the PlayStation Store this past week with little fanfare, a modest $14.99 price tag, and for those who owned the original PS3 digital version, the new version is completely free—a welcome change in a gaming landscape plagued by a glut of over-priced remakes and remasters.
Developers have started reporting they have been laid off from the company.
Twisted Pixel was one of my favorite developers before they got bought by Oculus and went VR only. That run of 'splosion Man, Comic Jumper, Gunstringer, and Lococycle was legendary.
This stinks but they knew who they were getting in bed with when they took the bag of cash.
That's the reality.
When these dev studios allowed themselves to be purchased it was well documented what Facebook/ Meta were all about. I don't advocate anyone losing employment, but they knew who they were dealing with.
bummer about Sanzaru. Sony should have acquired them after Sly 4 but I guess sales weren't that good for that and there was no real incentives to buy back then and the series ended on a cliffhanger. I love Sly4. something was amiss in their effort to introduce their own ideas on the IP but I still love it regardless. a 7.5/10 for me and I was excited for the sequel that never came!
Shaz from GL: "The way Journey evokes emotions through its narrative without using traditional storytelling methods is something no game has been able to replicate."
BY JOHN: As winter approaches, I find myself searching out "cozy" games that I can play when I need a break from the high-octane action and intense competition found in most modern games. If you're feeling a little jaded by mini-maps covered in icons and a list of quests and side-quests a mile long, I have the perfect game for you. A serene masterpiece for those looking for a port in the storm.
That game is Journey.
just finished this game x2 on ps4 lol
Game is generic imo. Bought it on ps3 and wanted a refund.
You obviously didn't stick with it then... I thought the same thing the first 5 minutes.. By 20 minutes in, I was mesmerized... Course, maybe you're different, which is fine too.. ; )
Well looks like this will be the highest rated remaster this year. Good job.
I missed this the first time around. But I have another chance!
