Interest Renewed

Despite having some minor issues at first, I have been enjoying that which is the PS3. As a matter of fact, I haven't really even turned my Xbox on since getting that shiny piece of gaming power. While the Xbox does have it's advantages , the types of games on the PS3 have been nothing less then refreshing to me. For starters, the game on PSN called "Flower."

Flower can't ever claim to be the most complicated game ever made. It is so very simple, you just tilt your controller in the direction you wish to go and your flower petal will fly in that direction. But that isn't the allure that makes this stand out in my mind as much as it does.

The atmosphere of the game world and the choice of music, collectively, is just so calming and relaxing. It is unlike anything I've ever experienced in a video game before. And graphically? It is absolutely nothing less then beautiful in my honest opinion. The colors are vibrant and there are no hiccups in the frame rate at all. So if you are adversely affected by motion sickness, beware; this game flows as gracefully as the wind you command.

Next up is Little Big Planet, the evil drug that is cute as it is addictive.

I knew I wanted to play this game from almost the first time I ever heard of it. And I knew I would probably have fun with the level creating stuff. But what I didn't know was just how engaging and downright addictive this game could really be. My first attempt at making a level, which I named "Burn Baby Burn" may see the light of day.

What amazes me is what people have created in their homemade levels. I mean in the short time that I've had with the game so far, I've played through a pretty close recreation of a Mirror's Edge level. Plus I've even experienced a Ghost Busters level too and that was creative and equally interesting.

The last game I'll mention is Disgaea 3 or at least I would like to but there really isn't all that much to say. For the little time that I have spent playing it, it plays and feels and looks no different then the previous 2 games. My official verdict for the game may come a but later on, whenever I get around to actually putting in some time in the game. I am hoping that there is more to the game then it seems. I have always liked the Disgaea series, but change can be a good thing sometimes.
