Maybe preview is the wrong word since they only really interviewed someone and were shown a slideshow of the game but it’s still a fascinating read.
Heavy Rain is one of the oddest games to come along in a long time, and it’s exclusive to the PS3 which seems to be making a habit of publishing odd games.
Heavy Rain isn’t actually a game, it’s more like a dramatic interactive movie than anything else and that is what David Cage (Director) seems to be heading towards.
The part I am personally worried about is that Heavy Rain is going to be nothing more than a long string of annoying quick time events interspersed with cut scenes. But after reading the interview I feel that David Cage is also worried about this happening and is doing everything in his power to ensure that it doesn’t happen.
I can’t say that I am overly excited about Heavy Rain yet but I am getting more interested the more I hear about it, it feels like it could be something really groundbreaking if it works properly when released.
