flOw coming to the PSP Store...tomorrow?

It just might be that flOw is coming in a downloadable game format for the PSP as soon as tomorrow. Shin-Ra found this and shared on thatgamecompany's forum:

Release date is January...and tomorrow be the last day, and also the PS Store update. Hmmm.

When asked, John from the thatgamecompany team said:

So...who knows, but this seems way too definitive to be a mistaken entry at Playstation UK. flOw PS3 has it's own entry too, so it's not a mislabel:

Hmmm...

Bought if true.

Custom soundtracks would be nice.

Rodeo Clown · (01-30-2008, 08:18 PM)

That would be rad, but only if the PS3 version I already bought transfers over.

What what what

Nah, it probably wouldn't work like that. PSP Store prices have been good so far, so I don't see how this would be any different.

Can you gameshare PSP downloadable games?

It would be weird. from SIXAXIS to nub control.

yeah but it would get the job done

So do I have to buy it again? I'd like to see them patch in remote play support to regular flow. Also, did the last flow update ever come out in Europe?

Maggot9 · (01-30-2008, 08:43 PM)

I liked flow and all, but I won't get this.

Agreed. I'd like to see Sony show some leadership on this.

Freeply · (01-30-2008, 08:45 PM)

*looks at screens of PSP and PS3 versions*

And apparently they got it to look exactly the same on both platforms.

Definite purchase for me, but hopefully I'll only have to pay once for our two PSP's.

I remember having to download a patch last time I played it, dunno if that was the update you speak of tho.

Wow, flOw for the PSP? I'd probably get this as long as it's got a good price tag on it. The PS3 version was great, although I still don't have the flOw expansion pack yet.

Yeah, that would be great if they could offer the PSP version for free (or at least at a discount) for people who already bought the PS3 version. It wouldn't be a dealbreaker for me if they didn't do this, but it sure would be nice if they did anyway.

I also agree with theBishop, that it would be great to see Sony lead the way and start offering original downloadable games (not just PS1 classics) that can be purchased once and then played on either PS3 or PSP. I don't mean via Remote Play, either--I mean actually having a PSP version of the game reside on the Memory Stick.

Rule of thumb ; dont ever listen to what the UK Playstation site says.

vagabondarts · (01-31-2008, 02:42 AM)

sooo bought if true.

Polari · (01-31-2008, 02:47 AM)

This is the one PS3 game that has piqued my interest. Sold.

the-iek · (01-31-2008, 07:20 AM)

what firmware do i need for downloadable psp games?

Phthisis · (01-31-2008, 07:21 AM)

I am so there. flOw and Everyday Shooter are my two favorite PS3 experiences. Glad I can now play the one about microorganic life from the warmth and comfort of my own bed.

spindoc · (01-31-2008, 07:29 AM)

Are those really screens of the PSP version? I find it difficult to believe that they got this looking exactly like the PS3 equivalent with no aliasing! Must be bullshots...

Game page has been updated to March 2008 now and SCEE confirmed that it is indeed coming to PSP (and no I seriously doubt those were PSP screenshots)

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has confirmed to Eurogamer that a new version of flOw is coming to PSP.

flOw sees you controlling the evolution of an organism as it floats through a trippy underwater environment. It was originally released as a PS3 download in April last year, and Rich rather liked it.

Now news of a PSP version has popped up on SCE UK's website. According to the gamepage it's out in March and will feature ad hoc play for up to four players.

"We can confirm flOw is coming to PSP," a spokesperson told Eurogamer. "We will release more details shortly."

That'll include price, hopefully. The original flOw cost GBP 3.49 so it's probably not necessary to start saving.

Someone should probably change the thread title :/

That's coming to the European stores...

So at this moment we are totally confused about the release of Fl0w on PSP. Some repots says January 31st while others says March, which is it?

A release list two weeks ago said Jan 31st, and now it doesn't.
