Review of PS3's Flower

[KampfKiewi245]

I only bought a ps3 because of thatgamecompany (the developers of Flower). Can't wait for Journey btw.

[HoofieBerry]

Why did they have a camera zoomed in at his shoe?

[Beefy707]

Does it have co-op?

[Tekedon]

Played the demo, loved it :) games like these are good for people with stress related problems.. I'm one of those people.. I have IBS so my stomach isn't working properly most of the time.. it's really frustrating.. this game helped me calm my nerves.. and made me feel better. Anyone who calls this game gay needs to grow up.

[reddeadauto1111]

xbox 360 is only war related games, but this game is truly amazing even though i only played the demo.... LOL

[gusto1978]

my wife saw me playing this and she was like OWWWW this is nice... ":) little did she know i was SOOO HIGHHHHH flying with the petals LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

[JOHNNYSxMONKEY]

I love this game. Makes you feel stoned.

[DJF411]

Everyboy has their own thing, when you say that this game is awesome you actually offend someone who thinks it's a steaming pile of shit; and of course visa versa.

I personally remain neutral, I would go to my friend's house to play it just out of curiosity. However, I wouldn't purchase it for my system. I'd rather get Trine, Braid or Fat Princess.

[MrFutago87]

We need more colour in games. I'm sick of all these steelgrey and shitbrown games these days. I just bought this game and fell in love with it right from the start.

[LightLink1992]

probably fine game but all of this you actually already saw on the wii ._.

[mabrumbach]

Wow, watching gameplay of Flower makes me wish i had a PS3 (even though i do strongly believe that the Xbox 360 is a better system)

[LaughingMonkeyBomb]

...

[ThatAlastairGuy]

It's a great game, anyone who says otherwise is colour blind or close minded.

[interpretop]

oh god. Why the frick would anybody make a game like this... is there like a hidden message in it? lol?

[capiti1234]

by the way, this "game" should be called a "interactive screensaver"...

its definally not a game

[capiti1234]

stupid game

it should be free

not worth 10$

[SuizitKomando]

did you played this game before?

[capiti1234]

yes, i bought it and totally regret

[magagnomagagni]

this game is gay.Who defends this game...if you love nature so much..exit from your house and go in campaign hugging real flowers and trees.

I return to shoot zombies with a rocket launcher!

[GlouwBug]

lol... Thats not the point. Flowers the first game to utilize all 7 PS3 cores. When you're fucking around with zombies, do you see 10 000 fully rendered blades of grass on screen each altered by the game's physic engine in some way? No, I didn't think so. Get off the internet.

[ffgamera]

I agree that the game is graphically awesome, but that's completely untrue. Flower does NOT use 7 of the Cell Broadband Engine's elements.

[Rporta94]

@GlouwBug k

[jonteet]

@magagnomagagni i can just say: exit from your house and go in campaign shooting zombies with a rcoket launcher, not so easy right?

[NabsterHax]

whoever calls this gay is frankly an xbox nerd who can't appreciate the beauty the ps3 can produce. You're so busy playing all your 'brown' shooters that at the first sign of colour you have to fight it. You're losers if you can't appreciate it.

[djarnexus]

I kind of had to lol at what you said... because I had the same argument a while back that I retain...... Since Gears of War every fps on the 360 and nearly all around the board are desaturated... which is a cheap way to make the graphics seem more unified.... it works well but is getting annoying... we need more colorful shooters.

[itachifan275]

i agree 100% with you

[buffalosiam]

this game make for peachful and relax such creative game XP

[xbox360nerd1]

he sounds gay + hes playing that game

[MellowMadnessRMX]

smoke the plant.. game over.

[bigfootstolemypuppy]

I  don't get it. How is it gay?

[Spontaneous415]

well to me the game is pretty dumb, but the land you play on the game is so MASSIVE. and like this shows how powerful the ps3 can be by MASSIVE landscapes of the 3d grass, bigg ass bulidings, and nice coloring, but its like sitting in a beach, but its beautiful and its indoors lol

[artman40]

In the meaning of "happy" perhaps.

[Group3Step]

kinda reminds me of LittleBigPlanet in the sense that its not about taking some gun or sword 10x the size of some big burly tattoo'd guys body and blowing the shit out of a rabbit. its unique and different. makes your mind actually think (omg i know rite, video games making you think? god forbid)

[chocalatecocoloco2]

this game looks like crap looks boring all u do is fly through wind dont get it

[PhilippeSlayer]

Weed+Flower=

[XTruth]

shows over ppl. flower proves games are art. not stupid games. only flower is art.

[jeans1515]

lol its the exact same technology. Its an accelerometer.

[ratchet24x]

wow dude you are so stupid. just because this game doesn't involve blowing people to bits with RPG's (and i know what im talking about, im an FPS fan) doesn't mean its not a good game. i might actually buy this just cause it looks so freaking relaxing.

just because you wanna play a game that involves something calming and scenic and somewhat beautiful doesn't make you a homosexual, it makes you a GAMER.

in my opinion, to call yourself a gamer, you have to dabble in different game types.

[OrganicTastesBetter]

whats your problem? your only what 12 years old? yeah come cuss to me when you know how to.

[hardvibes]

jimijames57 you are USELESS

[imFatSmilEy]

dude seriously i finally found someone who thinks the same as me :)

[Vorallem89]

why only for ps3 -.-

[SILLYBOBO112]

Because only the PS3 can handle the game.

[electrobodyboarder]

hey guys, just 1 question. ok my tv can run 1080i and 720p. on what resolution should i play flower? thanks

[rayzor6]

Go 720p. With the fast motion, you'll have a better picture because your screen will refresh faster. Just my opinion.

[chrgrfn]

lol definately 720p

[SamChambo333]

after i completed this i couldn't be bothered to get the secret flowers cus i got bored

[L0LImAnna]

Can someone tell me where to buy this and how much it is..?

[Doofirtle]

PSN....? $10

[chrgrfn]

Access the PlayStation store from your XMB and you can download it to your hard drive for 10 bucks.

[cucumberawesome]

it looks cool. something different is always good..so many games are more or less the same. Id pay my 10 dollars

[jpablo100]

this game kicks ass, its not only relaxing but its really really fun and the graphics are mad

[PSXBODY]

This game is so great, the best 10 bucks I spent on PSN!

[pnoyguitar]

I'd play this for therapeutic

[mollyrulz9999]

it's a good one to play when you need to chill out on a stressful day too. :)

[SplittingAt0ms]

Jamin says: "It's the same technology the Wii uses." which is a completely false statement. There is absolutely no IR tracking involved with the SIXAXIS controller. I think we all get what he's saying, but he's reporting for the Wall Street Journal, not the Chuck E. Cheese Network.

[Doofirtle]

I agree, he really doesn't seem to know to much about anything...

[LiamWadey123]

anyone want to gameshare this with me

i offer cod4 maps farcry 2 addon r& c quest for booty

PSN: killa324324

[Arcamea]

It looks good, for only 10 bucks, calmness and serenity while playing a game? Why not.

[alchemistEXE]

I might buy it, but 10 bucks for this? 5 or 7 maybe though.

[Wootnezz]

Don't be cheap lol.

$10 for a game is cheap already.

[alchemistEXE]

I know but this is basically 10 bucks admission for a roller coaster simulation >.>

[agltbialik]

It's kind of like Flow, only much better with its overall art direction and design. The sprawling backgrounds and environment is breathtaking, and opening up new areas to populate is exciting to watch.

[freeweed]

game is great!!

[PiranhaFish101]

To buy or not to buy? Its cheap, but i dunno???

[OMGJEEPERS23]

reminds me of okami except without the demons

[Totalidiocy]

In other words...it doesn't remind you of Okami at all.

[skateboard4zero]

666s view

[painkiller234]

DEMON GAME! lol it looks really different but you have to be open minded to appreciate it. I would certainly like this but it would have to be free:(

[skateboard4zero]

haha

[Warlordbuus]

WONDERFULL GAME

[PappaPanda]

Great Review, think i might buy it now.

[adamjrb]

when will it be released

[zman1512]

feb 12

[CandyHam]

Nice review. This is a definite purchase. After building frustration from playing WipEout HD and the soon-to-be-released Killzone 2, Flower looks like an excellent source of immediate relief

[horridbitch94]

that plant is like me at school =P

[zacattack214]

Good job.
