Interesting. I've just been using a Y adapter with the AV out cord from the PS3 and plugging in some earbuds.
You're right too, good sound is necessary for this game NECESSARY

You should just be able to turn forward the clock on your PS3 to one week from now, and you should be all set to get the trophy. Just remember to turn it back when you quit the game.

I took advantage of that a lot when I kept replaying the level to get that last symbol.

Definitely. Just watched the Musical Journey video that's in the OP again, and I wish I could buy the soundtrack.
I needed a wireless headset for comfort, and because I tend to play games and watch movies late at night, which used to be a problem when my girlfriend had to wake up early. Not anymore. =) Too bad the virtual 7.1 sound doesn't work with movies, from what I've heard.

We'll have the soundtrack up on the PlayStation Store after the game comes out, but I can't say for sure when. We'll announce it on our Facebook and Twitter pages as soon as we get the info.
(And I really need to get my surround sound system fixed!)
It was a dream hearing Tina Guo and the Golden State Pops Orchestra playing Woven Variations, aka Journey Suite 1.
So, as a Day 1 purchaser and lover of flOw and Flower, I've been dying to play Journey and avoiding all video of it (and most pictures in the last 6 months).
I have the house to myself this Saturday and am thinking it's the perfect way to dive into it. But, I'm not a Plus member so I'm resigned to the fact that I'll have to wait. But, I figure, just for fun let's see how much it would cost to get it early. So, I jump on the PlayStation Store and look at the Plus packages. I'm immediately trying to talk myself out of buying Plus just to get Journey early for this weekend. I think I've talked myself out of it since it would more than double the price of the game just to play it 3 days early, and that, of course, is ridiculous. I decide to turn to GAF in the hopes of confirming that I can wait the measly 3 days. I find this thread and jump straight to page 4 where the post at the very top of the page is:
As others have said, you guys aren't making this easy.

Great to hear that. =) And thanks for the amazing experience, which I need to re-experience soon.
oh man, I don't have an email from them even though I'm on their PSN and PS Blog mailing lists. I hope I didn't delete without realizing it.
Anyone have any codes left they can part with for a fellow Journey/thatgamecompany fan? It would be most appreciated! Please PM.

WTF @ the OT. You had me going...almost too much since I thought this game had tie-ins with the rock band and immediately had me put off from looking further.
Hello travelers, I've been doing a little trophy hunting, and two things have alluded me, would anyone be kind enough to direct me to their locations?
Here's what I'm after...

I'm not sure if I should be doing this, but I got myself some codes from Sony's Facebook Journey Avatar Promo thing. Apparently they're multi use:

Could have gotten 100% a while ago, I've just been "speedrunning" and beating the last chapter over and over to see my outfit change. I've probably put 4-6 hours into it.
Yes you will.
This is the only game other than Beyond Good & Evil that I've gotten all Trophies/Achievements on this entire generation.

Wait your clothing gets more patterns really?
I've beaten it 5 times already lol I should look like a flying oriental carpet at this point.

I know this sounds stupidly superlative, but my god, absolutely incredible game. I just finished it in one sitting and am absolutely in awe of the experience. The lead up to the end was so beautiful I welled up a little bit. Chills.
Love the co-operative element, I didn't even realise I'd been playing with multiple people.

Post a pic of your outfit. Would be interesting to see how it looks!

Me neither. I played with 6 people on my playthrough, and I only counted 2 unique people. And that's only because I saw the first guy drop out

Just did my part (spoilers ahoy):
After getting the white suit, I started a new game from scratch and helped out a new guy that I met in the first level. At first he was reluctant to follow me around, but after persistent chirping, I was able to lead him to all of the hidden glyphs and glowing symbols (even showed him the hidden flOw creature). Near the end of it, he refused to leave my side and we got to the top of the mountain together

I beat it with 7 people. It's weird because I thought the one person with me for 3-4 areas was the same person but I guess not. AMAZINGLY OUTSTANDING experience here.

Been trying to download the game for about 2 hours. PSN is at a crawl.

Absolutely not. As it is, it feels just right. Not that it couldn't go further with more sections but it felt just right to me. I've got far less with other games I've payed more. Especially when you consider what this game does to you in certain aspects. I would rather let it be a surprise for people but it's a very special game.

If anything, I think the short length adds to how great the experience is. You ride a real emotional rollercoaster in the span of 2 hours. Any longer and I think the impact wouldn't be as great.
No Jeff, how do I shoot?
It was more than enough for me.
Except now I want to play it again and again and again, hahaha. Just to relive it.

In the very last part of the level, where you sit down to meditate, there's a ledge on the structure near the base of the stairs. Take the left route and you'll see it as you wrap around the building. I was stuck on this one forever as well.
No offense to those of you who want to make wise purchases, but you're coming at this game the wrong way.
99.9% of the time, you'd be right. Why should you spend X amount of money on a game that's over before you turn around?
But in this rare case, the game is not a storage shed for your accomplishments or abilities. You won't understand until you play it, and no, it can't be demoed.

Just finished it. I feel it was a *smidge* too pricey for the length of the experience, but not enough to dampen the experience. Really enjoyed it. Stunningly beautiful. It feels more like an interactive silent movie with amazing cinematography and art direction than it does a "game".
