Edge-Online: Flower Review

How did Lair manage to get it so wrong? Flower proves that Sony's Sixaxis is more than capable of expressing delicate, exhilarating aerobatics through motion control and, furthermore, achieves this while putting you in control of a piece of airborne plant-life rather than something more obviously given to majestic flight - like, say, a dragon.

Edge's wording and scoring are inconsistant, whats the big deal?
They never used to be like that.

I'm all for more intelligent/ thoughtful reviews, but seriously, you'd think that these folks work for MENSA.

Amidst all their flowery wording, they always seem to miss the point. Is it fun? Does it look and play well?

I don't care about:

"...Sony's Sixaxis is more than capable of expressing delicate, exhilarating aerobatics through motion control and, furthermore, achieves this while putting you in control of a piece of airborne plant-life rather than something more obviously given to majestic flight - like, say, a dragon..."

What the Hell is that? Oh and whatever your system of preference is, their review scores never seem to match the material in the review. How does:

‬"But if it is slight,‭ ‬then Flower compensates by being a very rare experience,‭ ‬both in terms of subject matter and the visual splendour with which it has been executed."

Equate to a 7/10?

I totally agree.

I saw the score, read the review and was like... wth?

The two don't match up, imo.

I keep hearing great things about Flower and it's got some really, really good reviews.

I was trying to see what it was that made Edge give it a 7, but they don't say...

If I was an EDGE reviewer life would be so easy. Here is how you review :

Playstation title = -1
Great Visuals almost revolutionary = -1
Fun = -1

Darkseider5565d ago

LOL! People still care about what they have to say? Edge has been proven to be a joke of a review site. A bunch of elitist fanboys who think they sh1t ice cream. I tell ya what, do yourself a favor and ignore Edge. Also remember that friends don't let friends read Edge.

Review - Flower (PC) | WayTooManyGames

WTMG's Leo Faria: "Flower is a gorgeous, well-crafted and relaxing game, but I have to say, I don’t get the massive love towards it. Its “story”, if you can call it that, is far from deep and thought-provoking as some say it is, its duration is borderline insulting for its asking price, and it just doesn’t motivate you to replay it after you’re done with its half a dozen levels. Sadly, Flower isn’t as meaty as it should be. A fair point in a way, given it’s a game about plants…"
