I couldn't help noticing Flower. I took a quick glance in the PSN store at it too, read at it, since half the people who where online where playing the game.

I read the first line:

Ride the breeze and brighten up even the greyest day with the fantastic flower. PAUSE..... now i really do miss the golden era of gaming of the 1990s.

The game seems quite interesting, but for $12.95 AUD, there always the option of having compression sessions in the back shed of your mates house to get into that zen kinda state for the same price. if you know what i mean:lol

So tell me guys. What is this game like?

Loved it, already got 100% trophies, but i'll happily play it when I need a good chillout.

[Darkdrium777]

How can you have 100%? It hasn't been out for a week.
You trickster. :P

Yeah the game is amazing, everyone and their pet fish should play it. I don't have all trophies yet (And I won't get the trophy for a week until a week later, unlike someone... :D) but I'll keep playing and playing. It is beautiful. :)

flOw is also very good, if there is a promotion going on you should grab that one as well (Make sure you get the expansions, you get multiplayer + ingame screenshots and new creatures).

Oh snap. :lol

Downloading it in a few minutes! Can't wait to play!

[micky1984]

Kigo dont be put of by the artsy babble, behind all that there is still a game and and a beutiful one at that, i understand that the concept wont b for every1 but if ur the slightest bit interested in it then i think u wont be disappointed, at first i thought the price was a bit steep but personally after playing i think its worth it. Also at points did anyone else think of ico or shadow of colossus when looking at the large landscapes, to me it evokes the same sense of calm and serenity . . . . . . (im sensing the loss of several man points due 2 that last sentence lol )

[KIGO1987]

I should check this game out, it looks interesting since i probably do need some form of activity to chill out on, this might be good.

Ive been downloading stuff all day off the PSN store. Since i have a really slow connection i had the console on all day. Every few hours i came back home to check how much the download has progressed and if the PS3 hasn't overheated and burnt down the house. And every time i checked i saw kyoto was still online. He has being playing the game all day, that is why he has all the trophy's already:blarg

[djKyoto]

Nah, nothing to do with that.

Theres a bronze trophy that you (stupidly) get, if you come back to the game after a weeks break (Welcome back), so naturally it would be impossible to get 100% in the first day.

But I could'nt be bothered waiting a week for it. :lol

[infoxicated]

I downloaded the trailer, but it looked more like an interactive screen saver than a game. Maybe I'm missing the point...

[micky1984]

im afraid its one of those games u wont really understand whats its like until u actually play

[b4p]

i was afraid of that

[Darkdrium777]

*SPOILER*
DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT PLAYED

Highlight to read.

->calm, creative, amused, fearful, cautious, vengeful
->This is what I experienced on the first playthrough. It really moves you.

[micky1984]

Dito that sums it up for me 2 Darkdrium by the end i was smiling so much i must of looked like a proper gimp i wont say anymore dont want to spoil anything for anyone who intends to play

[zeeZ]

If you play through any of the "dreams" again you really get a screensaver at the end :P

I'm a leaf on the wind. Watch how I soar! Swoooosh!

[Darkdrium777]

No, that screensaver always was there I think. Just don't press any buttons and it will keep on scrolling AFAIK. (Trophy to obtain like this btw)

I got 95%, now for one week (good timing since it is coincidental with the school year and I have 1 full week of school) and I will have 100%.

Not like someone here who changed system date :g

[LOUDandPROUD]

Started playing it yesterday...I'm through the first 3 levels...all I have to say is, wow, what a beautiful game.

[eLhabib]

I've only played the first 2 levels so far, and I really enjoy it for its calmness, freedom, and pure beauty. Now if - as some of you guys are hinting at- there's even a great story element to it, I'm even more impressed.

Rob, interactive screensaver is far from summing up what this game is like (although you could, technically, use it as a screensaver). I dare you to try it, it's well worth the little money, especially if you've got a stressy lifestyle.
