Default Heavy Rain



HEAVY RAIN REVIEWS

The demo was very interesting. Some different and new things for sure. It's going to be a rental for me. Anyone else try the demo or going to buy the game right away?

I've only recently came accross this game but am definatley interested as I really liked Fahrenheit, although for some reason never finished it...

Didn't realise there was a demo, may give it a look or just take a punt on it.

Played the demo earlier, it's awesome! Didn't want to finish it though so not to spoil the game too much when I get it.

My thoughts exactly ..One of my colleagues is playing it right now and i'm this close to buying a ps3.. must be because of the excellent name of the guy who created the game. David Cage.. damn what a handsome last name

That is a sign - go out & get your PS3 it's calling you...

I know very little about the game, despite having a PS3 that is begging me to use it... but the only game that nearly made me turn off Call of Duty was M.A.G

What is Heavy Rain about?

some people would describe it as an interactive movie with loads of quicktime events.. but it's far from that.. give Fahrenheit a try to see if it's your type of game. I believe it was in the downloadable original xbox games when i last checked my 360 ages ago.. The first scene in Fahrenheit was epic and the rest was even more if this epicness

Default Re: Heavy Rain

but it has a weird arse storyline about prophecy and stuff but its cool!

Heavy Rain is about the origami killer and you are trying to discover who they are through the eyes of several different characters [Fahrenheit] it reminded me a lot of tv series like CSI and 24 but its heavily stylised and quite a slow game I have heard this game is the same!

If you want to shake your hands while watching a movie go rent

Finally dusted down my PS3 to watch a film and thought I'd download the demo for this will I was at it. Now Hurt Locker is a two hour film, so I thought the demo would be at least 50% done. It was 4% done when the movie finished! Does the background download thing stop working half way through or something?!

Left it running since and now at 31%. Madness.

And then after all that it wasn't really worth it! Pretty lame demo.

I find it amazing that you can make such a claim when you haven't even played it yet.

If the demo is anything to go by, this game is like nothing i have played this gen. and one of the most innovative games of past decade for sure.

how can this game not be GOTY? aside from God of War 3 there is no other game this year that looks like it will come even close to this game.

Well I'm looking forward to Just Cause 2 and Crackdown 2. Splinter Cell, Alan Wake, Dead Rising 2. Several contenders, bit early to be shouting about GOTY.

Been playing this game over the past weekend. It's different, but I'm finding myself wanting to play it more and more as the story goes on. It's like an interactive movie. It's pretty cool. Very original in my opinion, but probably not for everyone.

I went to buy this game at Bluewater yesterday as I have a GAME giftcard, but it was still priced at £44.99! I immediately walked out.

It's suprising how this game is holding it's price, I'm waiting for it to hit £20 or less.
