Games Worth Remembering - "Flower"

This is a video essay about Flower, a game that is also a work of art. It conveys a worthwhile message that relates to human experience. It communicates is that there can be a harmony between seemingly dissonant things, and it does so through the use of a subtle narrative told through the eyes of a flower. This is a creative, original experience that is worth remembering. Available on the Playstation Network for $9.99!

Thanks to Jenova Chen, the creative director at thatgamecompany, for explaining the philosophy behind Flower's development clearly.

I'm graduate at language and literature in my country (Brazil) and actually I'm seriously thinking about making a thesis about art in medias like books or movies,in comparison to videogames, and man, you really gave me so much ideas of which games to talk about!

Really, thank you, you are doing an awesome work.

@Goukeban That's terrific! It's a very relevant subject, one that I'm interested in myself (obviously). Good luck writing your thesis, and if you need any other examples just let me know.

Wow should I buy this game? It looks beautiful I´m a fan of those games who look like art that´s why I´m such a big fan of the okami it looks like the whole landscapes and trees and flowers are painted on japanese scroll with those brush things.

@dameronWolf Okami is a beautiful game, just like this one. There's no reason not to buy it, it's only $10. It's always listed alongside the PS3's best.

[TheGameLocker]

@Ebzey You BET I am!

[Goukeban]

@dameronWolf I really have to agree with those gamrs that ask "Why everythink has to be grey and brown?"

Even Gears of War could have more colors.
