^Flow was release in 06-07. How old were you then?

Dabbled a bit with the flower demo when it was released a few years ago. I guess the idea was to offer a unique experience using the Dualshock's sixaxis gimmick. The game, IMO, has a very polarizing appeal similar to that of an art movie. The demo was interesting but much was left on your imagination to interpret the story. The major problem is the premium Sony charges for these download titles. It is quite a deterrent while wanting to try out such games.
 
And since these were only out on PSN before, I did not want to download them thanks to the hazy connection here. I'd rather get myself a disc instead.

Flow is quite an old game isn't it? I played it when i was a kid.

You must be referring to another game perhaps?
 
Played the game last night and it was absolutely amazing , the soundtrack is too good.
 
Completed the game and must say it was absolutely fantastic journey though it lasted only for 4 hours but it was truly worth it.

Now back to AC 3 :P
 
Had the chance to play Journey. Mesmerised by the stunning graphics , pleasent music. Absouletly love it!.
 
Started the title and it is absolutely fantastic! I just loved the whole concept - something which seems to be very unique. And the background score is mesmerizing! Damn thing feels like a pilgrimage to nowhere. Played for some 2 hours and called it quits. Shall resume it today and possibly complete it.

Fortunately the Collector’s Edition lets the player download the artwork and soundtracks of the titles to the PS3’s hard drive which can then be copied to a pen drive from the XMB. This disc has been a worthwhile investment. I don’t think I am going to put it for sale anytime soon.

Journey is on a disc now? Great. I bought the PSN version when it had come out. What a game!! Though I havent completed it. Its just beautiful and will definitely bring a smile to your face.
 
Indeed, now the three games Journey, flOw and Flower are bundled along with three of the devs' unreleased titles as Journey Collector's Edition. Requires a mandatory installation to the console's hard drive but the goodies are worth it.

The disc hasn't been released in Asia as yet; just hit the UK markets couple of weeks back actually. Got a friend's dad bring the disc from the US - bought it through Amazon. :)

Oh wow the game has finally hit Indian shores! That is a very good price actually. I got it for almost double the price - 1.7k odd. But that was during April 1st week - it wasn’t available here at that time. :(

Anyways, completed Journey yesterday. It’s a very short game - took me 40 mins. or so to complete the remaining parts so may be 3 hours tops. Brilliant game it is. The two things that stood out were the visuals and the soundtracks. There isn’t much to write about gameplay here. I would love to give it another shot sometime later after connecting the console online. Felt completely different - a perfect game to unwind oneself after a day’s tiring work. Good job thatgamecompany! :)

Began Flower immediately after that and I can confirm that soundtracks and artwork for the remaining titles can be saved to the console.
 
It was 700 Bucks when I bought it off PSN too this was at least a year ago.

And credits to Santa Monica Studios collaborative development, too. I always thought this and sound shapes were Santa's games.
