I was summoned to Jim Sterling's review by these comments:
Letters numbers and spaces are ok wrote:Invalid review until more more capable reviews come out, due to the fact that these guys made flower, basically a flight sim for retards.

You suck and you have no idea what a video game is, http://insomnia.ac/reviews/playstation3/flower/
http://www.destructoid.com/review-journey-223030.phtml
and ended up skimming it for a bit. It's surprisingly well-written, and the bits that I read at least are reasonably well-argued, but he didn't quite sell me on the game. At least not on the 9/10 rating. At best, I'd say 3/5, which, if that's indeed what I'd give it, would be quite an achievement for the people who made Flow and Flower, and for "indie" bums in general.
We'll see. I am sure I'll tackle it at some point. It's going on the "indie" scene list in any case.
On another note, I really hope they price this sort of stuff at 5 to 10 bucks... Certainly no more than a goddamn movie!
