Flow is free on the NA Playtstation Store today.

Wow, talk about false advertising.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #2 on:** February 13, 2010, 01:23:08 PM »

Hey, it's free. So even if it's crap, at least you didn't spend money to find out.

You know what a fool I am? I bought the fl0w DLC a couple years ago and I hated the fucking game......and I use the word "game" in the loosest form of the definition. It's like I just wanted to throw away some money.

I'd rather given the 5 bucks or whatever it was to a bum.

I downloaded this and thought it was boring. At least flower was pretty and had a feeling of flying for a bit until you got bored.

Hitler Stole My Potato · « **Reply #5 on:** February 13, 2010, 02:27:09 PM »

Flower is/was awesome. I have no real desire to go back and play it again but I definitely appreciated it for what it was. Next to Shadow Complex it was my favorite downloadable game from last year.

I think I'd have more fun building a spreadsheet in Excell than playing Flow.

cool breeze · « **Reply #6 on:** February 13, 2010, 02:33:23 PM »

that's what I'm saying. you play flower, marvel in the presentation and all that, then it ends soon enough and you don't want to play it again. I don't think it's awesome or anything, but it is something worth checking out, at least. I don't know how finished flower and was like that "man, I need to jump in and play that again".

How much is Flower? Is it cheap? Like, $5 cheap?

Hitler Stole My Potato · « **Reply #8 on:** February 13, 2010, 02:39:24 PM »

I thought flower was something like 10 bucks, but it could be cheaper now. PSN always seems to have a lot of sales.

Just looked on GAF for the hell of it and saw a huge thread about Flow being up for free....and people are excited.

Yeah, that thread is pretty stupid. I like free stuff, but I never claimed Flow was good (hell, I've never played it).

magus · « **Reply #10 on:** February 13, 2010, 02:46:03 PM »

isn't flow that game where you eat up stuff? i'm pretty sure it was a flash game or something...

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #11 on:** February 13, 2010, 02:46:31 PM »

Yep, started out as a PC flash game.

Bought flOw and the expansion long ago. It's a nice little experience for what it's worth.

duckman2000 · « **Reply #13 on:** February 13, 2010, 03:15:48 PM »

Flower somehow feels like a full experience. Flow is amusing enough, and it's certainly unique, but it should have been free all along. The motion controls are also spot on in flower, but it feels clunky in flow.

Himu · « **Reply #14 on:** February 13, 2010, 03:16:36 PM »

I dled it.

This is pretty bad.

You assholes just don't understand the message behind flOw. Go back to playing your generic war games as your minds clearly cannot handle the sophistication that is flOw.

Played it for a couple minutes. Got a trophy. Pretty crappy controls.

It was free, oh well.

You don't have a US PSN account, or is it really IP locked?

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #17 on:** February 13, 2010, 11:58:46 PM »

I liked Flower, and I will probably play it again someday. In fact, definitely.

Flow is absolute shit though, not even worth 5 minutes of play or its half hour download.

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #18 on:** February 14, 2010, 12:02:00 AM »

why are the controls so bad. why can't i use my analog sticks

haha, you're lucky! it's actually dropped to $5 for today (Sunday)

Hitler Stole My Potato · « **Reply #20 on:** February 14, 2010, 09:00:25 AM »

5 bucks for Flower should be a no brainer for anyone. Automatic purchase.

ferrarimanf355 · « **Reply #21 on:** February 14, 2010, 10:36:31 AM »

I dl'ed it, it's free, so if it sucks, at least I didn't pay for it.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #22 on:** February 14, 2010, 10:40:53 AM »

Does flow have analog controls? I can't stand the motion controls and I haven't figured out how/if I can switch

Tucah · « **Reply #23 on:** February 14, 2010, 05:37:41 PM »

fl0w is so bad.

Flower, however is fantastic. I've played it on a friend's system but I might have to pick up a copy for myself for $5.

Went to download it, but it's already back to $10.

I'll give you my Flower code for $5 - if the code still works
