Flower (PS3) - it's almost here!

A few months ago, I wrote about Thatgamecompany's forthcoming PS3 title, Flower.

Well news reached me today that this PlayStation network title will be breezing its way to Europe on February 12.

I'm delighted that we're getting it so early, as usually, Europe has to wait considerably longer than the US and Japan to get downloadable titles.

In Flower, the player controls the wind using the Sixaxis. As you breeze across the landscape, you sweep up a solitary flower petal. You then guide the petal across a beautiful landscape and if it comes into contact with other flowers, their petals join yours and are accompanied by a musical note.

It looks gorgeous and could be the ultimate chill-out game. I can't wait.

To whet your appetite, check out the latest video below. Sit back, relax and enjoy
