    I've been playing it for a while now but dont fully get it yet.

    You eat the small things to grow, avoid the big fishy things (what happens when they hit you). You go up by eating the blue things and down by eating the red things. Whats the point of the game though? Just to get bigger???

    don't quite get it myself but it is addictive , played it for a couple of hours last night and the on screen character responds very well to the tilting of the sixaxis controller.

    Is there much difference between the PS3 version and the web version?

    The Sixaxis control makes the whole game quite surreal. Sort of like that episode of Star Trek TNG when that "game" with the thing that was like a visor that everyone got addicted to.

    You could happily sit at this for hours, gently moving the controller around. It's fantastic, very Zen-like! Calming audio also helps through surround sound.

    EDIT: Actually, I just put a Sixaxis in both hands, it is the most crazy thing I've seen in a long time. You feel like you are doing some sort of Oriental martial arts training with two controllers.

    I think it will take up to four people at once. There really is no comparison to the web game, although the graphics are absolutely beautiful 1080p and it has 5.1 sound, the control system is really a show off for the PS3. However, it doesn't use the acceleration detection feature, you have to press a button to get a boost.

    Very odd game... Still trying to figure it out. Tilt functionality is not good. Very messy. I hope it's not my controller...

    I thought that too at first - its just that its very sensitive, just takes a while to get a hang of it (tilt away from you/towards you, and/or to the left/right) - give the thing time to swim! I think its great - very relaxing/immersive experience, I could keep going for hours! Easily worth the fiver
