pro
Journey is heartbreakingly beautiful. The amazing music is mixed in with utter perfection to create an atmosphere that tugs gently at your heartstrings with each place you visit along your way. In combination with being one of the best looking games in a long time, you have to feel moved at least once during your playthrough.
pro
It is a looker. From the vague golden dunes to the red hot scorching sand and further into your adventure, everything looks amazing. The marks left in the sand and the waves as you surf down a sloap shows an attention to detail I wish I had seen more often in other games.
pro
Playing Journey with a stranger proves that you don't need mics, text or to even know who you're playing with, to have a special and fun experience. The limits in communication and the fact that you can't choose who you meet, provides a co-op experience unlike any other, and it deeply enhances the aforementioned atmosphere that the game already provides. Helping each other out with the mere hint of body language and sounds is addictive and fun.
con
If anything, some might find the game to be on the short side.
