That description of the game makes me want to buy a PS3 just for flower.

That description of the game makes me want to buy back the PS3 I sold just for flower.

May I ask, what's the point of the game? What do you do? I've seen this game before but I have no knowledge of what it's actually about.

I want.

Where is this game on the Playstation Store? I've been looking all day and nothing.

"Where is this game on the Playstation Store? I've been looking all day and nothing."

Fine! Fine! I'll buy it. Gee.

Cool. I am getting it. Like now.

I don't know if I'm even going to try it. I hate how so many PSN games leave you with the option to either buy, or just not play...Why can't they just give me a demo?

Damn. I bought a PSN card today just to download this (plus I'll have enough for Noby Noby Boy when it comes out), and it still isn't up on the store! I wanna play it so badly.

PSN is being janky on me. It won't recognize any of my cards.
And yes there is money on them! :P
I used it yesterday to buy some Rock Band songs on my 360.
Between this and the fact that my PS3 won't play my copy of Crank I got in the mail today (Isn't Blu-ray supposed to be region free!?), I'm really pissed at my machine now.

Downloading.

This game did look very interesting from the Giant Bomb video of it.

it really does feel like a poem in motion. I really am enjoying it.

"This game did look very interesting from the Giant Bomb video of it."

Just downloaded and played for about 20 minutes. I loved every second of it. It's beautiful, soothing and fun to play. All my expectations were met.

Now if we could only get those damn PSN cards here in Canada...

I don't think you were literally blown away...

True. there should be a demo."

"no i don't think so. flower isn't the kind of game you need a demo for. the demo may contain just the first level, but that could easily be enough for people to say that was cool but i don't wanna buy the whole game just for that. they wouldn't have a clue as to what would happen throughout the game and how amazing it really becomes. and also, LOTS of PSN games have demos. nhl 3vs3 for example just came out. "

I wanna play this game... but I don't want to spend $10 on it...

"I wanna play this game... but I don't want to spend $10 on it..."

I hate this game for existing...I know I'm going to end up buying it even though I can't try it out first. Hmmm, I lasted one day without purchase. How much longer can I last before I give in, or will I be able to fight the urge to play this game...I am at a crossroad and don't know what to do, but this could also be due to a lack of sleep this past week. What was I talking about again?

"I hate this game for existing...I know I'm going to end up buying it even though I can't try it out first."

GetSammy, you should tone down the hyperbole a bit, you're doing the game a huge disservice by hyping it as severely life changing."

The Giant Bomb video review shows pretty much all you need to know; the game is rather simple. The only thing left is whether you find the controls fitting, and while I can't answer that for you, I can say that I find the SIXAXIS works well for it. If you've played flOw, you should have some idea how it works."

The problem is that I hate Flow (and I own it) ...but I've heard that Flower controls better and feels better. I would love to try it out because it looks beautiful and looks almost like a Snake-type game, but since there isn't a demo I don't get the luxury of trying it before buy it. I bought Flow on faith and what I heard and felt screwed...I don't feel like going through that again."

"There's actually more to it than the GiantBomb video. Not gameplay wise, and not in a big deal, but narrative wise there is a big contrast."

There's no demo what so ever? I really want to play this game but I have no idea if it would be something I want to buy or not. Its a bit ridiculous if there isn't gonna be a demo at all.

I downloaded the game a few hours ago and man...it's incredible. I only played the first two levels but I don't remember any game that made me so relaxed, amazed and just feel free.

Incredible game, definitely one of the best this generation.
I'm gonna call something: flower will by my PS3 game of the year, unless InFamous is equally incredible.

InFamous definitely won't be from what I've seen. I mean, it looks like it could sure be a lot of fun, but Prototype looks like its going to blow it away honestly.

played it last night and finished it. wow, i can't remember the last game that gave me so much emotions (sadness, happiness, fear, anger, adrenaline, even a feel of redemption near the end) like this game did. no dount it looks gorgous but the game offers so much more than its graphics. i recommend this game for anyone who like to try different things for once, you won't regret it.

Was it like a ham sandwich for your knees?

No...It should have a demo. Every single PSN game should have a demo. There shouldn't be a single game on PSN that forces me to either buy it or not even get to try it. Every single XBLA game has "demo" (trial version) and that's what I want from PSN. I want to try Everyday Shooter. I want to try Flower. I would love to give those games a shot and possibly buy them afterwards, but I don't like having to place a purchase solely on faith. If PJE didn't have a demo...I probably would have bought it and definitely would have regretted it. I know people will probably say "Yea, but it's only $10" ...well $10 does add up in the end."

"May I ask, what's the point of the game? What do you do? I've seen this game before but I have no knowledge of what it's actually about."

So you are saying flower is better than a good six pack of beer? Yeah, I'll consider it.

"dude, the majority of psn games are cheap as shit. read some reviews and if the game looks cool to you, just buy the damn thing. i don't think every single game NEEDS a demo. NHL 3vs3 didn't need one, i would have totally bought that because i know i like arcade style hockey games. 

all i know is, that if you want to try everday shooter and flower, (even though you try to point this out though) just fork out the measely 10 bucks man. these games are soooo cheap. i buy some when i'm not that interested.

"

This game is simply amazing. It's one of the best "games" I have ever played, and in my opinion, it has unmatched visuals.
Just got 95% of the trophies, I only have one left which is to stop playing the game for a week, and believe me, this is the hardest one.

Magnificent and majestic game.

Just finished this game yesterday and yeah, it's pretty great.  Not too long, but it's designed to elicit a handful of very strong, specific emotions, and it does so masterfully.

I just finished the game, and Flower is very hypnotic. The first few levels are much more standard while the last few bring it to a whole new level.

I think Blu-Ray games are region free, not Blu-Ray  movies.

Glad everyone else seems to be enjoying it as much as I did. It's scoring really well too.

Hope more people check out this game.

I just beat it. I think you made a good call there, sammy, because I absolutely loved this game. It was beautiful, fun and thoughtful. I haven't had a similar gameplay experience since Braid (though Braid still has a better narrative, in my opinion). Nonetheless, flower is a great game. GO BUY IT!
