John Williams did this in the soundtrack to Star Wars Episode III; the track "Anakin's Dark Deeds" is almost identical to the opening track for the first LOTR movie for the first 36 seconds, and he claimed it was a tribute to Howard Shore.

Flow wasn't really a game. It was a media demo. I played it, but I was never immersed into it. It was more "Hey let me show so people an interesting concept" but that's all it did. Contrast that with Peggle or any other casual game of your choice.
I agree with the how games are derivative and I'm glad people are trying to not conform to a one-size-fits-all formulaic approach. But I don't think that they should believe that their shit don't stink, or that gaming isn't better because of all the FPSs of yesterday.
It's almost as if people love flow because it some how legitimizes the game industry. "Hey we have deep innovative artistic titles, we can't all be degenerate obese kids." In reality, this game isn't much about anything.

Interesting profile on a team with a strong personality and a refreshing outlook on video games. The more success their games encounter, the more the rest of the industry will take notice and realise that sometimes, a little subtlety goes a long way.
Flower will certainly rank among my very best video game experiences of 2009, as Flow did back in 2007. Unlike most other games I've played this year, I already know for sure that Flower will stick with me for years to come.
