flOw feels more like an art project than a game, initially started up as a Thesis, then moved on to being a Flash Game for PC & Mac and now THIS! flOw with just the use of SixAxis (yes, no stick control for you!)

But perhaps the most striking thing that flOw features (for this writer at least) is the visuals/graphics. I mean, look how tantalizing they are! It's almost like floating amongst electric jellyfish and you're seeing colors for the first time.

Add to that the fact that the game will run on 1080p, man, it doesn't get any psychedelic than this.

You control the big snake in the middle only by using Six Axis and eat all the small (and sometimes big) things by swimming around! Bloody amazing game!

Think of this as Snake for PS3 with multiple forms of snake and beautiful graphics. At first glance it does seem to be a "Yeah whatever.." game, then you get past the first level or 2 and you are sucked in to the game so firmly it is almost scary.

i love this game!
it's very close to slithereens (an old ambrosia mac game) in that you can only eat things that are larger than you from the rear.

sixaxis control is quite good although tilt forward doesn't depend on the way the controller is oriented (obviously) and is annoying sometimes

WiiMan: I had that issue too and I do have it on my PS3 due to the fact that someone in US shared their account info with me and allowed me to download it from their download list... (Each game purchased on the PSN Store can be downloaded up to 5 times)

PS. Anyone wanna organize a game sharing system? Where we will all share our purchased games???

I agree hope its free maybe belongs on psp cause graphics don't mean anything of the type of simplicity involved.

I bought it it's actually pretty nice, very relaxing. Sometimes you feel like chilling out after Motorstorm or Resistance. Besides $8.40 for a game if i get sick of it who cares at least adds to my collection. Good two player ability and easy to use good for young ones. Like snake on steroids, graphics are great.

I was thinking more like PacMan on steroids but snake's fine. Yeah I agree it's a nice game to chill out to especially after playing intense games or even if you just had a rough day.

The controls take a bit of getting used to but it shouldn't be long until you master the art of 'flowing.'

Bottom Line: It's whimsical and quirky yet surprisingly enjoyable.

I dont understand what the big fascination is over yesteryear retro arcade rubbish like this, there vintage and look crap for a reason, personally i think it should stay in the vintage years where it belongs, theres no room for it anymore with games looking and playing the way they do now, im betting im the only one who thinks this lol.

This game is kinda interesting. You use the six motion axis and basically swim around picking up little things and grow bigger. Just like that Snake game. Laid back chilled music and cool graphics make it a real relaxing experience. Not to bad
