Heavy Rain

[Mattroid]

My problem is that my budget doesn't allow me to buy games, so I get reminded of it every week or so.

But I wouldn't mind seeing a Console/PC Gamers sub-forum either. Then you can take your stickies there, too...

I can agree with this, if there is a demand for it. I will talk with the other mods and admins and see what they think. Maybe we'll take a vote or something, I don't know.

Planned on buying it on day one, but just preordered Battlefield Bad Company 2 so I will probably rent Heavy Rain. I downloaded the demo the other day but haven't got around to playing it yet. I think it will be a very good , yet very different game. Some people will hate it because you don't run around in circles blowing up as much shit as possible and others will praise it as the best game ever. I credit the developer for making something different though.

Exactly. I certainly wouldn't want all games to be like this, but it's nice to see a developer take a risk and make something different once in a while.

I haven't left the house yet today so I haven't got it yet. I'll probably go pick up some Chipotle in a bit and grab it when I'm out.

I played the demo of this the other day and it really made me want to get the game to see how the thing played out as a whole. Its like being in a movie and controlling what happens. I wanna go back to the demo and fuck some things up to see if the story changes. Might not do too much being a demo.

I didn't get it to really change much when I did that, but maybe there's some hidden shit I missed in there. The dialog changes easily enough, but the major sequences play out the same.

Done. It has been created as a subforum in the "Arcade and Amusement Machines" section.

Also, Heavy Rain has been good. At about 80% of the trophies now. Still trying to see all the different endings and a few other easy ones I need to get.
