This has quickly become my front runner for game of 2012. I just lost my first traveling partner and sat for ten minutes hoping they would come back. 
So did I. My guess would have been 3.
EDIT: Might have been 8 actually. I have a terrible head for numbers.

We've never said anything about going multiplatform. What we said is that we're looking for a larger audience than just that of the PS3.
We could go to another console, iOS, PC, everything, or a mix, but nothing's been said yet.
Well, except that the next game will have a large online component:

this game is so fucking good.
so fucking good!
haha this just happened to me as well. funny cause the first time I waited a bit, they actually floated up to me.
too bad theres no quit game or anything. I almost felt bad just using the PS home button to leave the game.

Just finished it even though I downloaded it even before the store front was updated. Beautiful game and worth the price.
Just finished it. Oh man, that was such an awesome game... if this game doesn't win awards, I will have to kill people.
I only met one person, and if you're on GAF, couldn't have asked for a better companion. I salute you psypher... something... whatever your name is.
Doesn't look like the PS3 records who you play with as "players met". >_<
But this is still an awesome game, and the ending had me screaming at the screen too.

They don't show up there, but they do show up in the credits.

Couldn't agree more.
The name shows up again in the credits? Didn't notice.
Wish I had the hindsight to write down the player's name... wanted to friend him. ^O^
You can see their name while playing?
yea I actually missed my laundry time because I didn't want to abandon my travelling buddy.
many parts of the game I was either smiling or drop-jawed. The way everything feels organic and smooth...simply refreshing and inspiring.
damn good work thatgamecompany and santa monica studios!

Holy shit is all i have to say. Wow
When you beat the game,
when it shows you how many companions you met, it tells you the PSN ids for each one.
Unfortunately, it doesnt look like PSN records it as a Player Met, so if you thought your companion was awesome, make sure to write that name down so you can friend them later.
PS+ 1-week early access
I lost track of time when I played it, but someone mentioned about 2 hours? The length of the game does not detract from the experience.
1.5hrs
It's a 50 hour game................if you beat it 33 times.

Just beat it, went through ten companions even though I didn't even notice. Beautiful game. Amazing game.
Masterful! I beat this game in a night and don't regret a thing. I'll play it again tomorrow, and about a dozen times after that.
I meet 8 people on my first Journey. It's amazing how you can communicate without words. The way we played off of each others actions. It just felt so right.
Flower, and now Journey... ThatGameCompany I salute you.

I had the most wonderful co-op experience with this one guy. We got all the way to the last level (gorgeous btw) and I lost him.
I sat by the end of the area barking and hoping he'd show up but he never did

Just finished my first playthrough. Had the same companion for the majority of it. Such a unique and resonating experience. Absolutely gorgeous, incredible sound design, and a very lovely soundtrack. I don't think I'm going to plunge into another trek so soon, as much as I desire to. I want to just think about this game for awhile. Well done to everyone at TGC.

Yup, definitely my game of the generation. I've never played a game grinning from ear to ear throughout like I did with Journey.

Yeah, Sony is really dropping the ball by not extending the contract with TGC. Honestly, they should be on their hands and knees with offers to keep them exclusive.
Just played it all the way to the end. Speechless. I could have sworn I was with one person the whole time but at the end it told me I had been with 4 separate people. Possibly the best Co-op experience I've ever had with a game, especially towards the end.
Not a single second was wasted. Cannot say enough good things about this game.
So unbelievably good.

Did anyone else have trouble exploring in this game? My companions usually just charged straight ahead, and I didn't want to be left behind.
