Journey or Flower?

[WhyWasThat]

At first it seems like a no-brainer: Journey is more expansive, more ambitious and has online gameplay.
But as much as I enjoyed Journey, I can't help but think back to the wonderful surprise that was Flower when it first came out... the gorgeous music, the eye-popping visuals, the remarkably simple yet precise motion controls that made me realise Sixaxis could actually be put to great use after all (it hasn't been since). Not to mention the zen-like serenity I slipped into while playing it.
Which did you prefer?

I liked Flower more. It lacked the online component of Journey and became a bit preachy towards the end, but it was more playful and cheery, and I liked the levels more, especially the first 3.

Journey

Flower was fun for the first 2 or 3 levels, but then kinda became abstract and stupid.

Journey was fucking amazing from beginning to end.

I agree. My favourite Flower level remains far and above the very first one. As you said, it got a bit too 'out there' towards the end, but remained interesting nevertheless.

Anyone who enjoyed Journey owes it to themselves to play Flower.
flOw is... an optional extra.

Never played Flower.

I have played Journey though as you can probably tell by my avatar. (At this time) And it is amazing.

I'm sorry Captcha, are you trying to predict when I'm going to die?

Honestly, Journey's soundtrack is really what won me over.

Yeah, I've got that on my iPod.

It makes walking through the city so much more epic
