This 'game' is so good it deserves its own thread.....really. Yep it was originally a flash game and a good one at that, but the changes on the ps3 version warrant its mere £3.49 asking price.

This morning i played it for around an hour and was totally engrossed by its simplistic yet capturvating gameplay. The music is also fanstastic and when you eventually evolve eating others causes strings and 'blip' sounds on the screen changing its colours and sounds you know just how good it is. The sixaxis is flawless in this game, just move it!

Details can be found here (http://www.us.playstation.com/flOw/)

Enjoy

Looks pretty cool, but not usually my sort of thing, VF5 just arrived from the rental place so I might give fl0w a bit of a download when I have played some of VF, I think I have like £4 left in my Playstation Store wallet.

Then youre not playing it right!

It takes ages to evolve but when you do everything around you changes be it sound or colurs!

Yep - it wasnt due to the 6th April in the official playstation magazine..but i must have spotted it early as i couldnt see it on again. Might have put it on early like sometimes they did with XBLA games.

They do or will have trials aswell as demos..remember you dont pay for this service!

And to be honest i have 34 xbl arcade games on my profile and not one can match Tekken 5 DR for £6.99 or 800MP (£6.82).....by the way flOw's still the best buy!

I don't care if you have to pay for the service or not.
You still can't just go commiting your money into 'Arcade' games without knowing what they're like.

So I just got Flow yesterday as I was curious about it and its on 'sale' till the end of this month. Must say it is different and after almost an hour i've got my moneys worth I think! After a few minutes of wrongly trying to steer the character with the sixaxis instead of telling it the direction of were to go, I kinda knew what I was supposed to be doing.

Question is...can it be completed or is it open ended? Do you just go deeper and deeper until you change into a new character type and do the same again? How many characters are there?

Answers on a postcard...

I think its a bit of both.....i have four different organisims i can choose from now and all have different colours and sounds when you use them. You start small and eat everything that you can until you grow larger and larger and eat the ones you couldnt before...to a point where you carnt evolve anymore.

But i honestly dont know how many levels etc there though
