Flow: In the trademark thatgamecompany style, Flow keeps controls very simple and learning how to move around and figuring out what you are supposed to be doing is part of the experience. For the most part, you are just tilting the controller to move your little water creature around, which is a fun and interesting way to play! There are several different creatures to play as, and you progress through each stage with each of them until they get to their largest size and you take on a "boss" creature of sorts.
Flower: Help light up the environment one flower at a time with this very fun and simple game! You're free to just wander about, as you are basically controlling and moving as the wind. You brush flower petals by each other, which will cause them to release a petal and then there are more petals floating around in the breeze with you. It has great visuals and a great soundtrack, which seems to be a staple for the trio.
Journey: So much praise has been given to this game, and rightfully so! From the story to the music to the visuals, this is such a work of art. I really enjoyed the minimalist style of learning and storytelling in the game; it was still very easy to learn how to play and figure out what was going on in the game. The soundtrack is thematic, so as you progress through a stage the music will often change with the pace and accomplishments. The visuals are absolutely stunning and serene. I only wish there were a way to take screenshots, since I enjoy looking at the backgrounds, but it gives me incentive to play and see them again. You can wander around a decent distance, but there are restrictions and the wind will force you back into line if you try to go too far away. It can be completed within about two hours or so, once you are familiar with it, but you might take much longer the first time just to soak everything in and figure out where hidden symbols and/or glyphs are. If your console is connected to the internet, you will see random players (one at a time, max) appear and join you as you make your way through the game. It may seem strange that you have no control over that, but I believe that was intentional feature to tie-in with the metaphorical aspect of the game, which you will discover when you play!
I just finished my first playthrough last night, and it was truly on of the most beautiful experiences I've ever enjoyed, not just in video games but in any artistic medium. Trying to sum up Journey in a few words feels both easy and difficult. It is so simple yet so incredibly rich and stunning at almost every moment. The game design in particular is simple enough for anyone to pick up and thoroughly enjoy whether they have never played a video game or are a veteran, yet it never loses that element of wonder and rapture as it draws you further along in completing your journey. The graphics are phenomenal, and I do not mean in terms of realism but just raw artistic beauty. From the way the sands glimmer in the sun to the flow of your scarf and cape with the winds, you cannot help but get drawn in to the sprawling world laid before you.
One of the best gameplay elements is integration with other lone wanderers along the path. With nothing more than a musical note to communicate, there is a wonderful bond that forms with a complete stranger in this beautiful yet connected world. This is the first time I've found myself waiting for a complete stranger to catch up, have someone help me across a difficult jump, and the first time I've found myself searching for my partner and them for me when we get separated. Whenever I needed help or they did, we immediately rushed to each others aid. This is the first time on any game where I have enjoyed forming this brief but powerful relationship, and it always felt natural. I knew that we didn't have to help each other, and we could have gone our separate ways but we didn't. My partner became the first playstation 3 player that I've added as a friend in years.
What deserves particular note for helping this game truly connect with me was the soundtrack. It is truly on another level, and is well-deserving of the accolade in being the first video game soundtrack nominated for a Grammy award. I am listening to the soundtrack in fact as I write this review, and has a way of teasing out and evoking such strong emotions as you lay back and enjoy it. This is probably the second video game soundtrack I plan to purchase for myself - the first being that of Flower. Overall, I cannot recommend playing Journey enough, it is absolutely one you will never forget and certainly one you will recall very fondly in the years to come.
Flower
The previous title by thatgamestudio before Journey, and it does not disappoint either. Flower tells the story of a flower petal as you help guide it along its way to connect with other petals in the land. I know that at face value it seems incredibly simple with no real story to tell, but there is so much more to it if you give it a chance. The gameplay is built around fully utilizing the six-axis aspect of the playstation 3 controller, and it is the first true implementation I've seen of that feature. It makes guiding your flower petal feel both natural yet engrossing, and without knowing it you'll find yourself being drawn further in as you try to keep building your trail of flower petals.
I was trying to figure out what key element really brought Flower together, and that is the soundtrack. I first played Flower after a tough day at work when I was feeling frustrated, and within the first few minutes I could feel all of the tension melt away and felt like I was in a blissful state. The soundtrack goes a long way to help you transition to this state, and is exactly why I purchased the soundtrack for this game - the first time I have ever done so for a video game. I never expected a game about a flower petal could be this involving, but it was and it made me more optimistic about where video games can still yet go. That this work led to Journey is very evident, but Flower is a wonderful game in its own right that you should absolutely play and enjoy on its own merits aside from its relationship with Journey.
Flow
Have yet to play Flow, so I won't comment on it until after I do.

Flow - The first game made by the developer - it's interesting but a bit childish.
Flower - A beautiful game. Play it with headphones for the best experience. The aim is to sit down and relax and like the game, get carried along in the breeze for hours.
Journey - Can a game be a work of art? Yes indeed and this game proves it. You can complete the entire game in about two hours, but the visual experience is incomparable to anything i have ever played. It's less of a game and more of an interactive canvas - a painting which you can be part of. Sign into the play station network and suddenly another player pops in. But you cannot talk or chat - yet you are companions on the journey helping each other and providing silent companionship. A beautiful concept which has never been seen. Once again, play it with headphones and on a HDTV for the best experience.
En cuanto al juego, no puede ser mejor, contiene los tres juegos desarrollados por Thatgamecompany para Sony, un juego simple (flOw) en el que evolucionas a tu personaje comiéndote a otros, a mi me toco jugarlo cuando recién salio en flash y me encanto, después me entere que estaba para PSP y PS3 pero no había tenido el placer de jugarlo.
Flower del que solo voy a mencionar que me recordó a Okami en cuanto a la mecánica en la que tus acciones en el juego modifican el entorno y aunque al principio paresca algo sin sentido o demasiado simple cobra mas vida en las secciones finales del juego.
Y Journey... ufff!!!... no se que decir, merece ser jugado por todos por lo que logra transmitir en tan poco tiempo, de una a una hora y media de tiempo para una persona que ha jugado juegos antes y dos a tres horas para alguien que jamas ha tocado un juego.
Los juegos de Thatgamecompany me recuerdan a los de Team ICO, si has jugado ICO y Shadow of the Colossus, no hay pretexto para no querer jugar Flower y Journey.
El juego en sí, es una joya con mayúsculas. No sabíamos si sería un poco raro, y nos ha enamorado por completo, ya lo hemos jugado tres veces.
Es una preciosidad visual, pero también de emociones. La historia es muy bonita, y el sistema de juego es muy cómodo de usar.
Recomiendo está edición porque los otros juegos son muy relajantes y agradables, también, merece mucho la pena
