    I can't afford PS+ though I used to. Why I'm not a premium member here at the moment either(I will dammit!). On that, I'm spending my days biding time to play Journey. Any tips or should I just experience it?

    I say go in blind. You will be better for it.

    EDIT: Non gameplay related, but do be sure to play on a HDTV and use a good sound system or headphones while playing if possible.. Makes the experience all the better.

    I never understood pre-ordering on a console. Do you get it cheaper or earlier?

    In Journey's case, you get a free Dynamic theme. It's all about the preorder bonus content. That's about it.

    @ahaisthisourchance: Really? I did.... It was added to my download list at the same time Journey was. Do you use the NA PSN Store? It may vary from regions,I guess?

    @ahaisthisourchance: Might differ then. I don't know about the deal from there. Really I pre-ordered to show my support, and to get it ready for download as soon as it was out. It's not like it'll go out of stock or anything. Maybe in the future they could allocate more bandwith to pre-orderers...or something.
