Heavy Rain for PS4 - The shocking announcement?

PlayStation Europe has released a mysterious image via Twitter. The shocking announcement

abzdine3809d ago

interesting, but i dont think the shocking announcement would be Heavy Rain for PS4 because Shu would have known about it since he is the boss of worldwide studios.
Doesn't mean a PS4 HR wouldn't be announced but i am quite sure the shocking announcement comes from a third party dev.

Mr_cheese3809d ago (Edited 3809d ago )

I'm hoping it isn't heavy rain 2 . I was really looking forward to a new IP or something that really was mind blowing, like a next gen sandbox.

Edit -

Could be AGENT and that's why Yosh was so shocked, because he didn't think it was coming anymore. Hahaha

abzdine3809d ago (Edited 3809d ago )

Maybe Kaz playable character in Battle Royale? :D

to the below:
Yes i know but Sony still edits the games so Shu must have an idea about what they are up to.

kneon3809d ago

Quantic Dream isn't owned by Sony. Still you'd think Yoshida would know about any major PS4 exclusive in the works.

DeletedAcc3809d ago

QD isnt 1st party, so...

abzdine3808d ago (Edited 3808d ago )

i came to think about something, didn't Sony announce a Heavenly Sword CG movie recently?

Could be a sequel to the game coming out featuring Kratos announced today? :D that would be definitely shocking.

sincitysir13808d ago

No please be something new!

FunkMacNasty3808d ago

What else could the image be related to though?? It seems to suggest something related to Origami.. only game that comes to mind is Heavy Rain

The Origami killer....

I could go for HR2.. loved the first. Still have yet to try Beyond Two Souls yet.

I thought Cage said he doesn't do sequels. Can't be Heavy Rain 2

Lord_Sloth3808d ago (Edited 3808d ago )

HE might not be doing it himself but they have a FED right there in the plot. Doing multiple Serial cases wouldn't be a stretch at all. Cage doesn't have to head the project, he may pass it on to another.

FITgamer3808d ago

I liked Heavy Rain, the only disappointing about it was it only took me less than a day to platinum it. If it's a sequel that would be cool, otherwise i'll pass.

HEAVY RAIN 2 FOR PS4! What else could it be?!

One of my favourite games of all time, from a single play through.

Edit: @Tripe

Damn, there goes that then. But as i said....what else could it be? Hmmmm.

core_53809d ago (Edited 3809d ago )

Quantic Dream says, they would not develop sequels. And no other studio can be achieved this game.

@Lukas_Japonicus

a PS4 Re-Release ?

GarrusVakarian3809d ago

Maybe, with updated graphics. I wouldn't buy it though, i don't want to taint the memory of my first playthrough.

Thehyph3809d ago

If they do a remake then I'd only buy it on the grounds of having a companion app with touch controls a la Beyond.
The girlfriend loves the principle and story of the game but she's not enough of a gamer to do quick time events on a dualshock.

mikeslemonade3809d ago

For its time I liked Indigo Prophecy better.

hellzsupernova3809d ago

i played it through eight times it was awesome every time

MajorAly3808d ago

I'm all for cutting pinkies in native 1080p/60fps. :D

I'd rather have Heavy Rain. Beyond was crap.

CGI-Quality3808d ago

I agree that Heavy Rain was better, but Beyond definitely wasn't crap.

tiffac0083808d ago (Edited 3808d ago )

B2S wasn't crap but it was clearly not Heavy Rain level. They just water downed the game play too much in B2S. It killed the thrill the game.

Edit: I would be disappointed if its only a port of Heavy Rain they are planning to announce and be surprise if its Heavy Rain 2 (which is unlikely as stated by Cage before)

Killjoy30003809d ago

I think it'll be a better announcement than that. And that's a pretty good announcement.

Starbucks_Fan3809d ago

Heavy Rain.....1080p edition remake?

Lol kidding

Ron_Danger3808d ago

At least we'd know it isn't a multiplatform game then...

ZING!!!

Any way... Now that that's out of my system... I really hope it's a new IP. There were too many HD remakes this gen (all consoles included).

Please stop comparing video games to movies

"Many video games catch not only great commercial attention but remarkable critical attention as well. We have seen games like Heavy Rain, The Last of Us Part II, and even entries in the Metal Gear series described as fantastic interactive experiences, even heralded in the same way as Hollywood's greatest films.

I would suggest that not only is this an unfair comparison but also a harmful one. Video games, by their very nature, are an intricately different medium and should be weighed against one another rather than another form of media," Phillip writes for GF365.

Yes, please stop. They're better than most hollywood drivel nowadays.

BLAKHOODe1250d ago

I think Hollywood films will becoming increasingly more like video games in the future, especially as the world embraces the "new normal" from the pandemic. It makes sense, as games like Spider-Man: Miles Morales showcase just how realistically we're reaching in graphical capabilities, as well as showcase extreme action sequences in spectacular ways. And as time goes by, it'll get easier and cheaper to produce such "art", as well as create new star "actors" that never age, never die, never complain, never gets involved in scandals, etc. Technology is amazing and we're only just getting a taste of what it'll eventually be.

sourOG1250d ago

No. Some games are like movies.

medman1250d ago (Edited 1250d ago )

No. For the money spent, a quality game provides far more entertainment value than a quality movie. Especially when looking at what is going on in the world, and how a studio can attempt to pilfer from consumers by charging 30 dollars for Mulan via streaming. Ridiculous. There is no comparison....games all day.

Have you played Detroit? While it’s my personal favorite, I fully understand many preferring Heavy Rain more. I’m glad you enjoyed Heavy Rain too.

bouzebbal1407d ago

def. one of my top 3 best experiences on PS3

ClayRules20121407d ago

bouzebbal

That’s awesome to hear! What’re the other 2 best experiences?

akaFullMetal1407d ago

Great game, need to get started on Detroit soon.

ClayRules20121407d ago

Glad you enjoyed the game! Yes, Detroit is a masterpiece of a game, and their best work to date “in my opinion”

ClayRules20121407d ago

Wow, 10 years...and yet, still one of the best/most emotional/thrilling gaming experiences I’ve ever had.

So grateful to Sony for believing in Quantic Dream’s vision for this game, and giving them a chance. I’ll never forget David Cage saying “We want to challenge the player, but not with the controller, but mentally, with their decisions of “How far would you go to save someone you love” Well, they broke my emotional gamer heart lol.

My teenage son refuses to play this game, because I’ve told him in little detail the emotional impact it had on me all those years ago. Maybe one day he will.

Z5011407d ago

Still have my origami crane they teach you how to make when you're installing for the first time.

C-H-E-F1407d ago

it's been 10 years? wow, that was so fast, I feel like this console gen went fast as well although it hasn't. I really look forward to the PS5 this holiday season though.
