Man, I really wish Journey was on PC. I've heard so many good things about it, but have never been able to play it.

I am glad FTL won some award but I am not too sure about Kentucky route Zero. The review people that I use and respect for my opinions said the game was a little too artsy fartsy and that nothing entirely mattered and the whole system of that they are doing episodic releases but they dont have a release shecedule and no real plans unnerves me.
