- Heavy RainOkay, it is guaranteed that this game is a completely unique experience so any kind of comparison is out of the question. I agree with many other reviews that this is not a game for everyone, if you are looking for an action packed, explosive megafest of blood, gore and violence look elsewhere.
Indeed, I think this is best described as a movie game in which the player is the director. You choose what to say, how to act and what choices to make - all of which effect the outcome of the ... Read More

The gameplay is fun and depending on your actions can supposedly affect the story outcome, but to be honest most of them don't make any difference at all. ... Read More

- you either love it or you hate itOne of my fellow reviewers has hit the nail on the head with his description, it is a "marmite game", you either love it or you hate it. Personally, I love it although I recognise that it won't be to everyone's taste!
I was fortunate enough to stumble across this game's spiritual predecessor, a great game called Farenheit. The stories are in no way linked but the "interactive film" approach used in Heavy Rain was first tried in Farenheit and later nearly perfected for the second game. I ... Read More
