Quantic Dream has published some truly stunning Heavy Rain screen shots. Check them out at the link.
"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.
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.
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.
What exactly is the David Cage experience, and is it of value? We examine two classics, Fahrenheit and Heavy Rain, to find the answer.
Quantic Dream has announced a new video series to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of Heavy Rain. Check out the first part here.
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.
Still have my origami crane they teach you how to make when you're installing for the first time.
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.
Haha. Christian Bale in The Machinist.

Oh my God, those faces.....they look....real
It's starting to look like those hollywood crime dramas, like the Devils advocate or The Devici Code or whatever. Basically it's looks like a New York crime drama.
I really hope it has nothing to do with religion or supernatural. They say it doesn't.
That one guy has the face of a detective, and that other skinny guy looks like a typical junky thug or something.
Also, if you look as some of the screen shots of that one house, it's clearly an indication that there's a child involved, with the slides and things outside the house and the drawnings on the fridge.
I kind of see where this is going. I hope it's not as obvious as a kidnapping, and an investigation that follows and a father of the verge of loosing it, willing to kill, and all the typical drama that goes with it. We have seen it before in Ranson and John Q. David Cage promised a good story, so good that I couldn't figure it out just by a few screen shots, I hope.
I was more hyped by that pretty hot women, finding those stuffed bodies in the suburbs and then being chased by that bad guy. But it's starting to look too much like indigo prophecy now, where you played as detectives a lot, and it look place in the city life of New York.
And those aren't even screen shots, just drawings and concept art.
I hope this won't be pushed to 2010... 2010, sounds very futurey.
The mid aged, non dying looking one. He looks a lot like the guy who came out in 300.
