Wooo, a pointless, pretentious semi-game to add to the steaming heap of pointless, pretentious, semi-gaming shite that is commonly referred to as the PS3's 'gaming' catalogue.
Might as well pack a fucking kaleidescope in the PS3 box. It's more interactive than the PS3. |

farticusmaximus - The epitome of 360 fanboy. We get it. You don't like it or the PS3 in general. I'm sorry.

In all honesty I've had a lot more fun playing with the packaging my Xbox was shipped in than all my PS3 playtime combined, and the packaging has been 100% fully interactive for all it's play time. |

"in the eyes of "the audience of pretentious fawning fops that have turned the PS3 into the equivalent of a f***ing beatnik poetry bar", as one of our readers put it when we previewed the game in January. However, the result is pleasantly innocent and uplifting, and perhaps unexpectedly its best qualities are those of a very good videogame."
i.e. stop being so dreary |

I'm not surprised, seeing as your game collection on EG doesn't have a single PS3 game in there, do you actually have any PS3 games to play, or do you sit looking at it hoping it'll do something of it's own accord? |

£6.29 really does not seem expensive...
Has my sheltered student life protected me from the harsh realities of the credit crunch more than I though? |

Lol, I'm a gamer, I have no reason to own a PS3. I do get to check oujt new releases and demos on a friends PS3 every few weeks though. Sometimes it's worth keeping switched on for nearly a whole hour! |

Shame about the price, don't think I'll be picking this up unless Sony snip a couple of quid there. Which is odd, because they're usually pretty fair with the pricing.
@farticusmaximus You like to play with empty boxes? Funny, so does my 3yr old nephew. You seem to have a lot in common, I'll introduce you. |

That certainly sounds like something I'd part with 6 notes for. I might also point out that there are any number of ways to express amusement in prose. Choosing to use "lol" makes you look a bit of a twat.

"beatnik poetry bar"? have we been transported back in time? surely, in this day and age, you mean East London jazz recital?

If everyone just ignored farticus, life would immediately improve. A troll with an audience loves every second of it, a troll with no audience is just a frustrated idiot.
Do it, make it the next thing you do. Hit that button. Its worth a thousand times more than calling him a cock. |

"In the words of developer thatgamecompany, Flower is a "videogame version of a poem, exploiting the tension between urban bustle and natural serenity""
Makes me want to throw up :) Seriously keep these people away from my PS3 Sony! I REALLY hate the "games are art crowd". Bunch of adults who don't want to except they are grown up and still like playing videogames if you ask me! / hides |

"Seriously keep these people away from my PS3 Sony! I REALLY hate the "games are art crowd". Bunch of adults who don't want to except they are grown up and still like playing videogames if you ask me! " Pet peeve, but it's 'accept' not 'except'. But that's more me being a pedantic arse than anything else... Whats wrong with 'games as art' if it fulfils a market? If you don't like them, don't buy them. I love games like this, that are different to the usual type and enjoyable to both watch and play. And before anyone thinks I am the sort of person who only likes arty games, my two most played are World of Warcraft and Fifa 09. |

@ Thornhillboy (and grammar police)
Christ you're right to pull me up, schoolboy error alert! And, of course, you are right everyone is into different things....I...just.....HATE it!!!!! Games are games, books are books, movies are movies. I never played Asteroids, Space Invaders, Head Over Heels, Skool Daze or Jack The Nipper (just to name a few old arcade/home games) and thought such nonsense about "art". I don't know where or when this "art" bollocks started (amiga era maybe?) but it is so far up it's own arse I can't find it! Still if people are actually out there in our world that can find an unmade bed artistic, there are twats...er sorry....people who think ANYTHING is art..... |
