Heavy Rain PS3
Amazon.com Product Description
Heavy Rain is an interactive, single player, action adventure game in which every decision players make influences the evolution of a desperate quest to catch a deadly killer poised to strike again. Featuring a complex and dark storyline meant for mature audiences, the game is a PlayStation 3 exclusive featuring a variety of possible endings, advanced crime scene analysis, replayable chapters, four playable characters and the ability to continue play as remaining characters in the event of your current character's death. Story
How far will you go to save someone you love? In Heavy Rain each player discovers their own answer to this question as they experience a gripping psychological thriller filled with innumerable twists and turns, where choices and actions can and do result in dramatic consequences. Spanning four days of mystery and suspense, the hunt is on for a murderer known only as the Origami Killer - named after his macabre calling card of leaving behind folded paper shapes at crime scenes. Even more chilling is the fiend's well established pattern of killing his victims four days after abducting them. The public is gripped with fear as the police seem powerless to stop the carnage, and another potential victim — Shaun Mars — has gone missing. Now four characters, each following their own leads and with their own motives, must take part in a desperate attempt to prevent the killer from taking yet another life. Discover how far you will go to protect a loved one as you join the search for the Origami Killer.

Heavy Rain is a single player, action/adventure game with a particularly strong emphasis on a player-influenced storyline as a means of facilitating the evolution of action towards one of many possible conclusions. The game features four playable characters: a father, a photographer, a FBI agent with a special skill set and a retired cop turned private detective. Each have different paths, means and motives to ending the reign of terror that the Origami Killer has imposed on their city. As players follow the path laid before their character of choice, they are able to explore, interact with and view their surroundings in a variety of ways using their controller's left and right sticks. At crucial times players are given a series of choices relating to how to proceed in various situations, with the outcome of these choices revealing both benefits and consequences. Benefits can be important to progressing through the game, while possible consequences can in turn pose a very real danger to characters, including death. But unlike other games, and because Heavy Rain features four playable characters that exist independently of each other, yet simultaneously within the same the story arc, this does not end the game. Players are instead able to play as one of the other available characters, with appropriate changes to possible outcomes due to the absence of the deceased character(s). Key Game Features - An evolving action-adventure thriller in which you shape the story with every decision you make.
- Action built around four playable characters that allows you to continue playing as one of the other characters if your initial character is killed.
- Savable chapters that allow you to replay the actions of the past, while maintaining the continuity of the events begun in earlier chapters.
- Mature content reflecting a realistic world setting that explores powerful themes.
- Stunning graphics, animation and technology that support an emotionally driven experience.
- Accessible gameplay via intuitive, contextual controls and interface.

 A great game, but could have been a classic... July 26, 2010
Mark Carson
Despite its flaws, I have to give Quantic Dream major kudos for Heavy Rain. I'm very pleased with its success, because it encourages developers to do something besides put us on a map and tell us to shoot everything in sight (not that I don' enjoy a good shooter). But...it definitely has its share of issues, which is why I can't quite give it 5 stars (if I could, I would give 4.5). It graphically does some of the best work ever seen on consoles, especially with detail in the faces of the characters and demonstrating emotion. At the same time, however, some characters and environments lack the same detail, which for me was jarring at times for a game that at its best is very immersive. I have no problem with a European developer creating a game based in Philadelphia, but just realize it does take away from the realism to hear some of the characters' accents slipping through. And honestly, is the pronunciation of "origami" really that difficult? The story itself is actually pretty good, but it does unravel a bit here and there. My only other issue is, for a game that offers so much in terms of how some story elements can change based on the player's actions, the individual "levels" (or vignettes or whatever) are for the most part very linear and don't offer much in the way of open exploration by the player, and I think the game overall could have been much improved with a little more of this. Even with these flaws, I greatly enjoyed Heavy Rain. I often get immersed in a skillfully realized game world, but I think in seeing what the character goes through I have at best what I would call a sympathetic response. When that character has an emotional moment I might feel sympathy but am not genuinely affected myself. Heavy Rain is the first game to evoke a truly empathetic response from me, and that says a lot for its merits. Some may call the gameplay boring, tedious, repetitive, etc., but I think it is an innovative, clever, and for me an enjoyable style. It's possible this game is the ultimate "love it or hate it" kind of experience, but I am squarely in the latter camp and am interested in seeing what David Cage comes up with next!

Excellent game. very different. I try not to play it too much cause it is a great game for if you were stuck home sick all day, or snowed in or somethin like that. Very good game though.

You can compare this game with other creations like movies, paintings or novels. David Cage the writer and director of the game had really alternative ideas about how the videogames for the matures should be, and his masterpiece "Heavy Rain" is the result of his vision. It is absolutely stunning and immersing with high class aesthetics and a deep dark story. Really you should play it because it is not a game! It is an experience!
