"The controls and interaction with the game world are suspect at best and downright awful at worst. And even looking past that I still come away disappointed. The script is weak, the characters' interactions/motivations are often left unexplained, and the voice acting is mediocre in some places and bad in others. The only thing Heavy Rain really has going for it is the composition of some of the individual scenes, and that's not nearly enough to carry the whole game on its own. So in the end we don't have much of anything except the spectre of what might have been." ... Read full review

The bad reviews you see are...ridiculous. Any of the reviews that give this a 90 or lower I just cant respect. I know we're supposed to respect other people's decisions (and i normally do) but in this case, I simply can't respect anybody that reviews Heavy Rain and doesn't give it a "good" score. This game deserves all of the praise it gets. Congratulations, Quantic Dream. You have made me feel more emotional about a video game than I ever have before.… Expand

I don't normally vote, but I am truly wondering if any of the people who are trashing this game have actually played it for any length I don't normally vote, but I am truly wondering if any of the people who are trashing this game have actually played it for any length of time. I'm about 60% of the way through the game, and I have been on the edge of my seat the entire time. Without giving any spoilers, the story is fantastic, and you are often forced to make split-second decisions that have lasting repercussions throughout the remainder of the game. This game is action-packed, albeit interactively, so there is no Halo-style shooting or God of War-esque button-mashing. The action contained in these scenes, though is frantic and fast-paced, and the story will continue on if you fail and your character dies. Lastly, the voice acting (which seems to be a major complaint) does sound a little strange, but you have to consider the fact that these are not American actors. Overall, a fantastic game with a thrilling and tense story. Well worth the price of admission.… Expand

I played it from beginning to end in around 15 hours. This game is a who-done-it story about a child killer and the hunt to both find them and a missing child. Yes the game is based on Quick Time Events, some people bash the game for this - but isn't every game is about, pushing buttons to react to whats on screen? This is just done a little differently to most games. It's about decisions, while some will have little impact on the story or character others will have a larger impact - in fact i managed to kill one of the characters on my first play though though a decision i made. Graphics very nice, as are most of the animations. The game's biggest let down is some pretty average voice acting - this really should have been alot better for a game that is all about story and believable characters. In short I recommend renting this game first, as it will not be for everyone, but for those of us that enjoy this type of game/entertainment then it is a hugely enjoyable and unique experience!… Expand
