    There's this "game", flOw, coming out soon. Supposedly, it's pretty cool. I'm seriously thinking of gettin this game. Only 8 bucks at the PSP Store (tomorrow, I think).

    Doesn't really seem all that special, just seems like a mad chill game.

    Could anyone tell me if it'd be worth it?

    Looks something like the beginning of the game Spore.

    I have it for my PS3 (Sixaxis controlled).

    It's ok.

    It's not like you'll ever get hooked on it. It's a game you'll play for maybe 30 minutes, an hour or two, then in a few days you'll play it for another 20 minutes and then in three months you'll be bored and play it again for a while.

    Don't get me wrong, it's an easy game (you can't lose), it's relaxing and will be fun for a bit and decently priced.

    I have it.

    It's not really a game, just something to fiddle with and chill out. I don't play it all that much, but I don't regret buying it.

    You'll like it better if you - um - relax a bit before you play.

    It looks like Snake, but without the boundary (!?); what's the point?

    There is no point. You just eat stuff and your guy morphs and you cycle back around to the different forms he takes on.

    Like I said, it's meant to relax you and may require a bit of horticultural assistance on the part of the player to get the full effect.

    Horticultural assistance, HA!

    What if I don't have a garden? I wouldn't trust myself enough to eat anything that I grew on my own!

    Yeah, I liked the sound of that when I read the review. A game of relaxation sounds nice. (Especially for the price of 7.99)
