Here's One for the Gamers


Here's a whole new concept in gaming. You don't kill anybody. You don't run anybody over or have sex with anybody. In fact,

Flower is barely a game in some ways. "There's no score, there's no time limit, there's no death," Santiago [Kellee Santiago, the president and co-founder of thatgamecompany, the game's publisher] says in the behind-the-scenes video.

Oh, and here's another review of Flower. Well, it's a poem, a song really. Anyway, it sounds really cool -- very peaceful, very zen.

Well, I gotta go. My herbal tea is getting cold. Peace and Love, kids.

Wow, This game is the epitome of being abstract. If you can imagine the scenario of being completely wasted in the middle of a vast field full of flowers, thats pretty much this game in a nutshell.

I think this game would be interesting to try... a nice change from a lot of those loud, graphic games out there, although sometimes those are fun too.

This game seems relaxing, and it's definitely different from anything else out there right now. The fact that there's no real objective kind of weirds me out though.

i'd be interested to try out this game just to see how it is and what'd it be like. however i don't think this game will attract the younger generation. This game looks like it'd be targeted towards old people.

I dont wanna "snark" this game or anything but i have to agree with connie. I think this seems more of an old people or stoner game. By that i mean a little too slow for me. It's at a good price though.
