Uh, it says in the OP that Flow and Flower are included.

PSP version of Flow can be controlled with the thumb stick. The PS3 version is controlled with Six-Axis. Six Axis = Bad.
Flower is controlled with Six-Axis, so I was never interested in it.
And I just never really paid much attention to Journey. Reading this thread has gotten me more interested in checking it out, though. I'll try the demo later on today and see if I like it.
seeing how the designer of the game left TGC (with many other who are involved in Journey ) I don't see this happening, Jenova alone without the rest of the talents isn't really good.
They should do this for Vita. It'd be sex for your eyes & ears.

That's a bit presumptuous.

I've owned Journey for over three months and I still haven't played it.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
they'd be fools not to have a variation of this fanart for the box cover, maybe with a flOw beastie in the sky:

I'd take just a US PSN release. I had it on my HK account but I can't remember my login.

Will buy. Throw in some nice freebies and I'm the happiest consumer ever.
Also, I don't mean to knock those who tried the demo and it wasn't for them, but if someone played through all of Journey and didn't think it was majestic and brilliant then I honestly think they played it wrong or something.

SixAxis works fine in these games. No need to avoid it simply because it doesn't use the analogue stick.

Actually I think it is totally unneeded for Journey and adds nothing to the game. Laying on my couch playing the camera keeps wanting to look up in the air. Not being able to disable sixaxis seems like an oversight to me.

I've only played Flower out of those three and I'm waiting to see if Journey gets a discount anytime soon. I'll probably just buy this CE, Flow will be like a "bonus" title.

Really? I thought six-axis was pretty janky with Flow. That's the only reason I never bothered to check out Flower. If it works well, I guess I'll give it a shot.

Sixaxis only works well with Flower IMO.

If most of the reviewers give the game high ratings and most of the users give the game high ratings, how does it make the game "overrated"? It may be a game that isn't for you, but if the majority of people who have played it liked the game, then the game is worthy of its score and "fawning".
above information is false,
true information is below

Own all of these digitally but will buy physically. I have friends and family that haven't bought/played any of these games so having a physical disc that I can lend out is great news.
Now I just want my CE Journey OST...

Yeah, not to diminish the contributions of all the very talented people that left tgc, but the only person that had a large role in the development of Journey, that has since left, is Chris Bell (who is working on Way).

Same boat as you jiggle.
Purchased all 3 games.
Purchased all 3 soundtracks.
Purchased the DLC for fl0w.
Completed all 3 games with 100% trophies for Flower & Journey.
Some of my favorite experiences this gen, but they'd have to offer up some new content for me to buy a 'collection'.

Agreed. The Sixaxis implementation in Flower is sublime, which makes it all the more bizarre that it seems to be so dreadful in everything else.
I've never before wanted anything like that... but I want that.

I loved Flow and Flower but Journey was just an exercise in futility. Pretty, and pretty dull. Traversing the world, which was the only thing to do just wasn't fun. Flow and Flower had fun on tap.

Really? I feel completely the opposite! By only the second level (the broken bridge one) you can have collected enough "scarf-ups" to be able to almost traverse the entire level without touching the ground by bouncing off cloth-fish shoals... I find it immensely satisfying. And once you've unlocked your white robe the traversal becomes just endlessly fun
Edit: Not to say that Flower wasn't ALSO superb, mind you - Flower was / is astonishing. Flow, I've yet to play... perhaps I'll feel compelled to pick up this collectors edition.
Same here. Still don't regret it.

unfortunately it sounds like you either: A. played solo the entire way, or B. didn't get a chance to 'journey' with anyone that made it interesting.
if that's not the case, well... :{
There's plenty of exploration (and reason for doing so) and the
more action-y & stealthy
Flower and Journey are both in my top 5 of the generation. fl0w was pretty cool, too.
Good-looking enough box and this will be, next to Diablo III, among the only two retail boxes I've pre-ordered in two years.
I've only played the game once - that first, beautiful play-through. I'm actually hesitant to ever play it again. If flower was "a poem" designed to be enjoyed again and again, Journey struck me as this experience that maybe is best only ever having once. Too many powerful memories that I don't want to risk losing their hold on me by experiencing again with non-virgin eyes.

In fairness to him, you have to set aside 3 hours of time and do it all in one go and unplug/turn-off your phones to get the best experience. It can be difficult to arrange.

This makes no sense. He is supposed to make his judgement from the demo on whether he would want to play the full version of Journey. Its the whole point of a demo. If he didn't like the demo then what makes you think he'd like the full game? If he thinks it is overrated from the demo, he thinks it is overrated.

The demo for Journey really, really sucks.
If I knew that that was what we were releasing, I would have tried my hardest to make it the three beta levels.
But, yeah, the demo really, really sucks.

John Nesky, the Feel Engineer, also left, and is working with Chris.
And Zia, yeah... You should look at this article, specifically where it says we have nine employees right now:

(We have hired at least two employees since Journey finished, including Vincent Diamante, composer for Flower.)

We violated Sony's policy and actually said something.
The details will be awesome, though.
Yup! I think you guys'll be just fine. Thank you for the link.
