Each one is noticibly more ambitious than the previous one. Flow was a 2D games. Flower took it to full 3D with a very original premise (and also a great game) but then Journey was up there with any AAA blockbuster for me. It really was an experience.

I hear it is a great game, but isn't it also a very short game with simple premise and controls?  I am not knocking it, sometimes simple games are the best.  I am just saying that in terms of scope, this doesn't seem to live up to even a mid-tier game.  It would seem they have a way to go to get to that level.
