I’m wondering, did you buy the Vita recently or did you buy it while it was still sold in stores? I’m seeing a big resurgence of handheld emulation and think it’s wonderful that it lets us play through famous older titles! I just bought a 3DS XL and am planning to play some old games I missed, too!

I was also a latecomer to this game (played it in college). The time jumps were crazy!

I stand corrected - there are versions for other platforms available according to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journey_(2012_video_game)

I believe it is still an exclusive

With the emphasis that they have done certain elements better: Brothers: A Tale of two sons (Show, Don’t Tell) , Dark Souls (silent companion), Shadow of the Colossus (feeling of isolation/scale). I might add some more if I find the time.

I had a similar experience. Funnily enough I love walking simulators, or slow burns with similar mechanics so I was exactly in the target audience for this game but somehow it didn’t click with me. I can understand which elements make the game great, but these elements have been done better by other games (in my opinion). I have great respect for the craft though.

I just hope they haven’t abandoned it completely. But it would be nice to hear from the mods about the issue you raised. Would be a pity to lose such an active community.

As for games, I started Earthbound, finally

I actually enjoy the fact that it’s not too overwhelming

This is just terrible. I love Deus Ex and was hoping to see a new game in the next 5 years.

Beat Saber. it was the Christmas time 2020, so during the pandemich, and I was living alone and had a lot of free time. Got myself a PSVR set. I maybe bough a game full price just once before. And Beat Saber cost me like 40 dollars. But it was so worth it. Played all of it, and even bought some DLC. An amazing game.

I am so happy for this guy. He must be so stoked!

I was just wondering - was there not a less ridiculous way available to increase revenue?

The first reviews are very promising! :)

Sad that there isn’t a physical version
