A new video about Heavy Rain, what's your take on this game? To me it looks pretty intriguing.

o_o Wow, it looks great. Now, so long as Mr Cage dosen't pull an ending where the story practically goes doo-lally like Indigo Prophecy did, this game'll turn out fine I think ^^
"we'd lol u in an office". Yes, my dreams don't make sense at all. xD

After seeing the walk through my view has changed a bit. It does look very interesting and mysterious. The visuals look great and it does have an intriguing story. Besides that though, is it going to be fun? Great story or not, I don't see the fun in playing the game itself. It looks like a very good movie with QTE's. How long is it going to be? I think this is a rip-off if it's priced as a full $60 retail game. The average price for a Blu-ray movie is around $20, which is essentially what this game is with but with player interaction and some story choices. I'll still be renting it because it does look very good, but what's the point in paying $60 for this?

SOME story choices? There are literally hundreds of possibilities with over 2000 pages of script, so there is a lot more than just some story choices. ;) I also do believe that David Cage(CEO of Quantic Dream) has said many times that the entire game is not just QTE and that it's more than that. We haven't seen a whole lot from the game though, probably because every bit they show is a spoiler.

Well the first review is in. 9/10. Here's an interview as to why he believes it's 9/10. It's from OPM, but OPM doesn't just rate PS3 exclusives high because they are exclusive. They have given PS3 exclusives low scores and are generally harder on them than regular publications.
