Games to download onto your PS3 revealed!
- Blast Factor: Sony's (well, Bluepoint Games') overwhelming, far cooler-looking answer to XBL's Geometry Wars. Arcade space shooter action in 1080p with full SIXAXIS support -- use the controller to move the floating cells around the play area, but some may not react as planned... also of note, self-adjusting difficulty depending on how badass you are at blasting evil cells. Just look at those crisp screens! Who needs other launch titles?
- fl0w: Another 1080p madhouse! This time, imagine a version of Snake where you not only eat other organisms, but grow and evolve! You can upload your critter onto the global network and see how everyone else is coming along with their nasty little buddy.
- Go Sudoku: Pretty self-explanatory. Sudoku, but the go means frantic, or rushed. So... do Sudoku quickly. Go!
- Lemmings 2: Direct your little suicidal/fearless buddies in a multitude of tasks to get them where they need to go.
- Swizzleblocks: Your guess is as good as ours. If swizzle is like "sweet", then we imagine a game that lets you create blocks of candy which the PS3 magically manifests for you to enjoy. Not really, but that'd be a great selling point, Sony!

I think that it's great that they will have downloadable content day one. But the whole "I think it's better than Geo Wars is a sorry attempt to get PS3 owners excited, from what I saw I was'nt to impressed!!!

I actually saw Flow a little while back in Flash form when I was told at work, "We need you to learn Flash for this project". It's actually a nice easy flowing game. I think it might pick up the more mature crowd.
Blast Factor looks ok. There was a game similar to it on the 360. The 360 game (which name passes me at this time) didn't look as good though.
Lemmings 2 huh? That might be a little fun. I really only ever played the first couple Lemmings games and this one looks to go back to that? (ie: it's not Lemmings Paintball)
Swizzleblocks: Need more info. :p

I would deffinently buy Blast Factor if I could actualy afford a PS3. It looks fun, but I'm not to sure about it being a Geometry Wars killer... I guess only time will tell.

Hmm, Hopefully they do packages like... $10 gets ya 4. I'd do that, paying $5 for those, I unno. And I heard Flow was free, I guess I heard wrong.

Flow is a free flash game. However, flow for the ps3, is much longer and has be graphically overhauled to be a little more visually pleasing. Its a pretty addictive game, and with an online element and tilt controlls, its sure to be one to buy.

"use the controller to move the floating cells around the play area, but some may not react as planned... "
sounds like they couldnt get the controller to work right.
-its not a glitch, its a feature!
