    Playstation Exclusive.

    This is a very beautiful game. It can actually be awe striking on how the environment is presented to you.​
    The game is very minimal with its controls, two buttons are used for interaction: circle for creating a bell like sound and "x" using your cloth powered jumps, and you are automatically thrown into multiplayer with the chance of interacting with only one other player. Since the game is focused on exploration and achieving that one goal, player interaction has become a unique experience. Would you travel alone or with this other traveler? Your character is also given a unique symbol that represents your name. That's right, your PSN name is not displayed till the end of the playthrough.

    I have finished my first playthrough that took a little over 2hrs. Not a really good bargain for $15​
    if your decision is based on game time ,but I strongly believe that because of its unique multiplayer experience, you would be playing this game more than once because each encounter with another player is different. I have only met two players online. One of them died. :(

    Heh, I was just looking at this game again when you posted this! :D
    Very disappointing that it's probably never going to move off Playstation, what with Sony being Sony. D':
    I hope I'll get a chance to play it some day, as the more I read about it the more I think it cant just be hype. :)

    Yeah it does suck that it won't go out of Playstation, but this is the last contract game TGC is making for Sony. I need to do some research if they will stay with sony or not.

    The trophies are pretty interesting. One of them requires you to play it after a week from your last journey. That's what i'm doing now.

    I really like the idea, but what's point exploring? Just wander and see how looks locations, or just like find anything, fight for you life?

    PS:I hope it will be on PC :c

    Spoiler Alert!
    It's not exploration, it's a journey.
    You journey to find and recover a lost civilization , the mountain contains the key for doing so.

    No, it won't come to PC. I already asked about it on their main forums.

    Any chance this is playable on Vita? I know a lot of PS3 games are supposedly playable on Vita, and I'd rather drop for a Vita than a PS3 (Even if Vita is nogaemsportable)

    The vita looks f'in cool. Unfortunately, it won't be ported to the vita. I wouldn't drop for the PS3 this year too. Word is that Microsoft and Sony are holding back on the new gen consoles just so that they could make more money off the current gens. So the next gens are around the corner. I'd suggest to hold yourself back on buying a PS3 now and see if the new PS is worth buying. If not, then for sure the PS3 would go down in price.

    I on the other hand might port to the PC, coz PC has a ton of more games than consoles. Nvedia GTX series, you are a few paychecks away. :>:(:
