[Question] The Gamingforce Game of the Year 2012: Results now in!

The only game I played this year that didn't want to make me pull my hair out:

JOURNEY - 40 Points



There is nothing about JOURNEY that isn't beautiful. It's a gorgeous-looking game that doesn't hold your hand but that's because it doesn't have to. It's a concisely-constructed game without a single word of dialogue spoken throughout but tells an immense story in its sheer simplicity. The game relies purely on its visuals and music to tell a tale, but it's seamlessly done through the symbiotic relationship between its near-perfect transitions between "stages" or the way score morphs into different movements to match the atmosphere and mood. It only took me 3 hours to finish the game but it's a jaw-dropping experience you'll want to experience over and over.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
