Re: Heavy Rain (PS3)

Awesome game, can't wait to keep playing, especially once things pick up more!

I'm just after the park scene...

Spoiler

I wanted to yell at the kid for running across the street, how stupid. Then Ethan's life after is just a shell of what he had, pretty sad. The little investigation stuff I encountered was fun so far. Oh, Ethan has bad luck, his first kid dies, the 2nd kidnapped lol. I look forward to when there are actual big choices to make, so far I'm just in the "setting up the story" part I think. Should get more into it tonight.

Re: Heavy Rain (PS3)

Did any of you actually set there and watch TV? It seemed like a pretty cool cartoon. lol

Yeah, I sat there for a few minutes watching the cartoon. It was rather interesting.

The first thing I did was drink the beer in the fridge.

I had a few swigs of the beer and then placed the bottle back in the fridge.

Spoiler

I think he was talking about the guy shower scene at the beginning.

Biohazard don't read this spoiler yet, lol.

Thanks guys for warning me on the spoiler..........yes, that is the scene I was referring to at the beginning of the game. LOL!

I want to get home and play some more of this, I am anxious to see what happens next. I am so glad that we are going to have new DLC chapters to extend the experience.

As you progress through the game, do we get an explanation of what happened

Spoiler

during the 2 years between Jason's death and the divorce?

Pure conjecture/guessing since I'm not far in the game:

Spoiler

Ethan was in a coma for 6 months, I'm sure the coma combined with losing a child was too much for their relationship...they get a divorce and have to share custody. It would be interesting to learn more though, you gotta figure she is involved somehow. I also wonder what Ethan does for a living now...

Spoiler

I am very interested to see how his wife figures in all of this. How cool would it be too if you were able to save Jason from dying, that would be some nice replayability.

I was wondering the same thing about his occupation since he was an architect before and now he is living in such a poor looking neighborhood.

Spoiler

I was kinda pissed, at the beginning when the wife gets home you can talk to her and get her motor going, but she says wait til later cause she's getting ready for the party. Only there was no later lol

LOL! I know, tell me about it. I even missed the opportunity to lay a kiss on her too because I had looked away for a second and by the time I hit the button it was gone. I would love to see a game like this taken to the next level with no scripting, it would be insane. When she asked me to get the plates out of the cupboard, I took a bit longer finding them and she kept nagging me. The best was when I slammed the first plate on the table and she started complaining that they were her mothers so he must be gentle with them. I just couldn't stop laughing.

There have been a few times I wasn't paying full attention and missed a button push...nothing big, but gotta pay full attention during every cutscene, never know when it may be interactive.

The combat I've experienced has been pretty fun so far too...didn't seem too difficult, yet wasn't boring or too easy either.

Will be interesting to see how it is when you have decisions that impact things big time one way or another, haven't encountered anything "changeable" yet...

Re: Heavy Rain (PS3)

I can't believe some of you beat it already......LOL, I wanna pace myself..

I wanted to as well, but it's kinda difficult to pace in linear games like this.

Re: Heavy Rain (PS3)

After playing for about 3 hours this game is amazing. Its really tough to stop playing once it gets going. The fight sequences are edge of the seat stuff

Spoiler

the trials are awesome. did anyone else find the dead body in the tunnel with glass?

Re: Heavy Rain (PS3)

Game is sold out everywhere! I've checked 6 stores and none have it!

I agree + if I had more time last night, I could have totally continued playing this game it sucked me in so much.

hmm.. nope. Did you wander in different directions or did you just follow with the matches?

Re: Heavy Rain (PS3)

Just "finished" the game. Going to play through it again, to make some different choices. I really hope that more games are made like this one. I know it isn't for everyone, but I really enjoyed the experience. It really leaves you breathless.

Spoiler

I really do need to play through it again. I didn't do too well, lol. Only one character survived, and it was the Origami Killer. I freaking loved every minute of it though.
