Crappy next-gen game

Looks like you won't be able to play Sony's PlayStation Store title just yet. Apparently, thatgamecompany couldn't deliver fl0w in time and the game has been delayed for a couple of months more.

This means that until its 2007 release, you still have time to get your hands on one of Sony's next-gens. I know that many of you were eagerly waiting for fl0w to come out, as the PS3 version received some major enhancements, but you will have to wait some more, according to IGN.

PS3 fl0w was enhanced with motion control and improved visuals and audios, not to mention that the overall story of the game has been expanded. thatgamecompany also plans to release further updates for this game, updates like new layers and a multiplayer mode. But first, they should release the game itself.

In fl0w, a player begins as a small white, worm-like microorganism, probably a single-cell organism. The game doesn't have much of a story as your main goal is to survive and evolve, by eating and defending yourself from enemies. As you advance in the game, you will see that the strength of your enemies increases, and for you to progress into deeper waters, you have to defeat each and everyone of them.

Currently, the PC version of fl0w features two levels of play. In the first so-called level, you have to evolve into a multi-segmented worm. After defeating the boss located at the bottom of the level, you go to surface and turn into a jellyfish. As a jelly fish, you have to replay the same levels. It sounds really boring to me, and frankly, I don't see why they would want to make it a next-gen title, may it be PlayStayion Store material of whatever.
