THE BUZZ: One of the most anticipated upcoming PS3 exclusives is Journey, and subscribers to PlayStation Plus will have a chance to get the game early.

EGM’s TAKE: I absolutely, positively cannot wait to get my hands on a copy of Journey for my personal PS3 to play at home. I’ve played some of the game at the EGM offices, and I can tell you that it’s just such an interesting, unique, and different experience compared to most other games. The game’s name is very fitting—Journey is about the journey of the player, and experiencing that journey, versus simply fighting monsters or hunting collectables.

For those of you who, like me, are eager to get your hands on the game, IGN brings us news that PS+ subscribers will get the chance to buy the game next Tuesday, March 6th—a week before the game goes up to the general public. You won’t get any sort of price break on Journey, but don’t worry—it’s worth every penny.
