So... Recently, Quantic Dream released an interactive... Drama? Story?
Something. Well, the game is called Heavy Rain.

I've been looking at it and 've been watching a few LP's of the game.
The game plays similar to Indigo Prophecy, which is also known as Fahrenheit, and when I mean similar, I mean REALLY similar.
Like... When you are talking to someone, you can do different things which affect an outcome of a situation.

For example. there's a specific scene where someone attempts to rob a store, and depending on what you say will either get you shot, make him leave peacefully, or make you have to knock him out.

I'll explain a bit more later, but I don't really want to spoil much.
So... what's everyone's thoughts on the game?

I've tried out the demo for the game, and it REALLY impressed me.

The plot is some of the best I've heard in a very long time and I Fahrenheit was an awesome game as well.

It seems very dramatic, the father(and I hope I'm not spoiling anything)has to cut his finger off to save his second son.

It's amazing if you like story driven games, I'm playing it now and it's worth buying.

Okay, so I've watched 2 full Let's Plays, All of the Endings, and have not yet bought the game.

Now, as there isn't too much reason for me to buy the game,
(I stupidly watch before buying, then feel bored because I know what'll happen.)
I still think other people should play this game.
If you don't have a PS3 or don't have the money, get a few bags of popcorn and watch it.
The entire game is REALLY LONG, as the person I watched had 49 and 60 10 minute segments.
As you might be able to tell, unless you're an avid gamer, this is not a game you can beat in one sitting.

PLOT OF THE GAME -
You play as four different characters throughout the game, switching after specific parts.
The main character of the game is Ethan, a divorced man who's second son is taken by the 'origami killer' (Or Ory-gam-e in the game) when he has a blackout, and he has to go through five different trials to save his son.

The other characters consist of Scott, a detective hired by the families of the victims of the Origami Killer,
Norman Jayden, An FBI agent on the case of the Origami Killer,
and Madison, an insomniac/journalist Ethan meets while on the run (who helps him)

Quite basically, you need to find evidence/clues on who the killer is, and you need to help Ethan save his second son.

If someone gets killed, the game continues, as there is no true game over in the game.
If I remember right, Ethan and Scott can't be killed until the end of the game, but every single character can be killed (even all in the same playthrough).

There's a lot of different endings, but most of them are variations on the main endings.
Endings are affected by gameplay, who dies and doesn't, and if you screw up badly.

It's a really good game xD

I really liked this game... It's very original and innovative in the way it approaches gameplay. The sense of making the characters react to my directions in almost real-time matter is very appealing.

My biggest complaint of the game was from my first play-through. I played the whole game and the story was going in one direction and I think I may have missed something because my ending did not match up with the overall story at all. It upset me so much I didn't play any video games for about a week!

My second play-through was a lot better and the ending was in-line with the rest of the story. This is a game I would highly recommend to any gaming lover!

Yeah I had the game and beat it for my first ending. It's a different style from what people are use to and provides a new element to the world of gaming. The graphics were nice as well and it was well written on a storyline basis. Definitely will be a classic for years to come.
