Flower review

There is simply no other game like this on any other console, Flower is simply unlike anything you've ever seen before. It's easy to pick up, it's engaging, it's gorgeous to look at, and it is simply beautiful.
In Flower, you're playing inside a flower's dream world of a more nature-like world rather than the urban ones we live in today. You control a little flower petal and eventually gather a hundred petals, and explore vast areas as well as saving the environment from pollution and littering. We've all heard this message about protecting the environments many times, but I've never seen anything like this; garbage is layed all over the place, and the whole place is deserted, and you really feel like you want to do something about this.
The graphics are very good. The environments are incredible to look at, especially if you fly low into the grass and watch a hundred grass petals moving in perfect sequence. And watching the gray and dull environments suddenly burst with color, it is simply a sight to behold.
The controls are very simple and easy to pick up; just tilt the controller to move around and press any of the face buttons to move faster. That's it. It's made for anyone to pick it up immediately and start playing. Some people complain that it's too simple and there's not much to it, and that's a very lame reason to miss out on something special like this.
The only complaint with this game is that's it is VERY short. I can finish it in only a few hours, and there's not much reason to play it again, but this is simply an incredible gaming experience that is worth the full price and it simply something no one should miss out on.
