Edit: That is the PS3 version, don't know about the PSP version.

    I came this close to buying flow a few weeks ago, glad I held off. So far I like flow a lot, but then I played the hell out of flower so I guess this is right up my ally.

    I've never bought anything for my PSP, but this seems like as good of an opportunity as any. How do you go about using the online store? I've set up an account but have no idea how to purchase things.

    Edit: I just realized, you probably need official firmware to use the PSN Store, don't you?

    You'd think a co-op game would make more sense for Valentine's Day, but hey, free game! I don't care for the controls much, but it is gorgeous to look at and listen to.

    This game would be SOOOOO much more enjoyable if you didn't have to use the shitsuxaxis.

    I get annoyed by waggle after awhile. My hands were getting tired of moving the little guy around after an hour or so.

    Also, the PSP version is not free (7.99USD or so?). Just the PS3 version is free.

    The Sixaxis controls don't translate well to what is displayed on screen. To go up you must tilt the controller forward, go down - tilt your controller backward, and so on. It felt weird to me because I kept thinking I should drive the snake thing like a tank, but no, tilt forward is up, tilt left is left, etc.

    The download is IP monitored to US IPs only, but if you know how to use proxies, then you can get it easy.

    Ok, I guess my fl0w isn't broken, and neither is my sixaxis. I couldn't wrap my brain around it, and so I showed it to my fiance and she figured it out in a few seconds. My problem was that I didn't know pulling the controller forward or back controlled up or down movement and I hold my controller pretty far back from level, so it was always pointed back. I got it now.

    You can play co-op, it's 2 players.

    I was like "FUCK!" because I just bought the PSP version, but then I read the thread, and it turns out it's still cool.

    Ohh, i almost forgot to snag this.
    Also I didn't know they had the PS1 Final Fantasies up, including tactics...
    I'm tempted to get 8 so can play through it in a self torturing sort of way.

    Played through it. I didn't have any issues with the sixaxis controls after a bit, but I can see why some people would hate it. In fact, I'm not sure I would have played through it without the motion controls simply because the game would have been too easy.

    I had plenty of fun with it, but I really couldn't imagine paying anything for it. The PSP version for $7 dollars sounds a bit silly to me.
