The game flOw, if you don't know, is a game you download through the Playstation Network. The game is 7 dollars, but the bundle (which is what I bought) is 9 dollars.
The game had some good reviews, so I bought the game, and well, I like it too.
In FlOw, you play as a fish, and you swallow other fish.
Yeah, thats pretty much all there is to it, its simple, yet a good game, and something great to have if you simply want to relax from a stressful day.
The game is controlled entirely by the Six Axis controller, so if you have a DualShock 3, your out of luck.
It is really responsive, its the most responsive and probably the best use of the Six Axis I've seen yet.
Though, the only buttons you use, well, are every single one, but they all only do one thing.
All the buttons do a 'boost' or 'special power' your fish has, and depending on what one your using, it can help you a good amount.
The game is easy, because the game is programmed to fit your style of play.
Say your doing bad, the game will set the difficulty lower and lower until you get passed a certain objective.
This is good to set the term of low frustration, which is what the game aims for, so if you want a challenge, your going to need to look for something else.
Though, the thing that makes this game too easy is the dying, you don't die.
All that happens if you loose all your health is simply going up one stage.
This in term makes the game only possible to fail is if you either suck at games entirely, or if your 2 years old.
Though, theres not really a complaint you can make to the game except for difficulty, the only minor thing I see wrong is the pause and screen shot feature.
For pausing, you go up to the top level, and the fish is still moving, this is ok I guess, but it can be annoying if your gone and the fish moves into the circle causing you to go back into the game.
Also, the screen shot feature, as far as I know, isn't optional.
It takes screen shots every few minutes, which makes the game lag quite a bit when its taking a shot, and if you want to take a screen shot at a certain time, you cant do it.
If you dont want it to take screen shots at all, it can be annoying to go to the saved date and delete every picture taken.
Though, overall, the game is good and for the price, you cant really complain about much except for little things.
So I say if you have some extra cash in your Playstation Wallet, go buy the game, but then again, you can always buy my favorite game ever, Super Stardust: HD, but thats another game review for another time.
