PSP flOw

It has been officially confirmed that flOw is coming to the PSP. It is good news and if you haven't heard about flOw before, read on.


Wikipedia defines "flow" as "the mental state of operation in which the person is fully immersed in what he or she is doing". Jenova Chen (a very gaming name indeed) had the idea to create a game applying this concept. You can read more about it here, but reading is one thing and experiencing it is quite another, so the best way would be to actually play it on its homepage.

Then it has been announced that a PS3 version was being developed. The game received some graphical and gameplay enhancements, but the core gameplay remained the same. Now, PSP is about to get this enhanced version as a downloadable game.

Personally, I am very pleased that Sony is finally taking advantage of the PSP online capacity and expanding its downloadable content lineup. First Beats, now flOw, in future Echochrome - life is good.

PS. The only minor spoiler for me is the fact that I am having problems downloading these games to my Custom Firmware PSP. If anyone has a suggestion concerning solution other than going back and forth between Custom and Regular Firmware using Pandora battery - please share it with me.
