If you have a PS3, ’s PSN page">buy it immediately, I say! If you don’t, convince a friend to — Go in on it with them if you have to. (That’s what I’m going to do.)
Congrats, Jon! Can’t wait for the PC version.

As reported by Tim, thatgamecompany‘s latest project for PS3 was revealed today during Sony’s keynote speech at the Tokyo Game Show. The game is called FlOwer, and, true to form, it looks quite evocative, although little is known about how it actually plays. You can view the trailer, along with the other PS3 trailers, here.
The rumor now is that their third title for Sony will be titled deFlOwered… and by playing the game you will experience the emotion of losing your virginity.

N’Gai Croal’s “Level Up” blog is increasingly becoming a place for juicy exclusives. This time N’Gai (awesome name) reveals that Jon’s sensational musical shoot ‘em up, Everyday Shooter, is hitting the PS3 to join Jenova Chen’s fl0w. There’s also an interview with Jon before he headed to E3 (now one day in and counting):
The best part is that I can totally hear his voice the whole time I’m reading the interview.
No word yet on the fate of the PC version of the game.
thatgamecompany‘s flOw is hitting the Playstation Store on February 22nd, according to Kotaku. It looks quite beautiful! Although I’m still skeptical about whether the gameplay is compelling enough to keep me playing for very long.
