heavy rain 9.5 from game informer

So if heavy Rain is an interactive movie, does that make ME2 an interactive book? Elutheria

It's the game representation of "Makeout Paradise" :P

Holy #%&#&$#$%#$%#

I can't wait. Mass Effect 2 + Bayonetta + GOW + FF13 + Bioshock 2 + now Heavy Rain??? I feel so lucky to own both systems + PC.

KristoffBrujah

yup, WE WIN!!!!! :D

Baahahahahaha that's what I thought! To all the haters out there saying that there are no credible sources that have given Heavy Rain AAA, well there you go! I'm so ready to play Heavy Rain, CAN'T WAIT!!pstripl3

[QUOTE="jasonharris48"]

[QUOTE="tbone802"] Those are my thoughts exactly. Didn't the dev say it was only meant to be played through once anyway? Not sure but I thought someone posted an interview that said that. tbone802

didnt know there was gonna be a day when gaming mags will start reviewing interactive movies. surely this is a sign of the death of gaming.

judging from buzz, this one has jumped from "kind of interested" to "must have" for me.

[QUOTE="zarshack"]

[QUOTE="nchan"] You mean you cannot wait to watch heavy Rain? I just don't see the appeal on this game. I bet many people would buy this game to find out it's not their type of game because of the hype this game get.nchan

It's more of a game than Monkey Island.

heavy rain 9.5? Reson to why i dont like Gaming Reviews that game its not out yet so that makes no sens marcos27pr

why is it EVERY big hype exclusive on the hd systems automatically gets 9.5+ rattings no matter of how good it actually is? I'm so sick of seeing 9.5's and 10's cause not one single game this generation with a score that high in last few years actually deserved it.

Illumination77

Are you really gonna say that after White Knight Chronicles, Dante's Inferno and MAG reviews? And after the sequel to Bioshock just got an 8.25 from them? :|

I guess this will have to do; watching you people being all bitter over your annoying cries for attention falling on deaf ears, drowned out by discussion amongst open-minded individuals enjoying a great addition to a rare genre. Hopefully you'll eventually give up.

Why is it so hard for you to accept that people like this game? You say you're fine with it, but you very obviously aren't since you're trying so goddamn hard to debase the game.

[QUOTE="Illumination77"][QUOTE="Ribnarak"]

super mario galaxy?, Little big planet, MGS4 ( ibelive its 9.5 worthy)....Uncharted 2 deserves it.

The lack os ps3 games in my sig is because ps3 gaems are largely terrible. I HATE HATE HATE Tomb Raider style games, and despise platformers. Personal taste but sinec Uncharted 2 sold basically nothing at retail comapre to its hype i think msot people agree iwth me that its not that good. If a game is truely as amazing as the hype train says it is it'll sell regardless of install base and peopel that dont live on message boards will be talking about it as well. Don't believe me? Remember the original Halo: Combat Evolved launched to an install base of zero, and sold consistantly well for several years in a row.

GI gives it a 9.5. Does amyome even take that rag seriously? Flop confirmed

XDDD your fanboyism cracks me .

think what you want, i am trying to download this game, went to the site and did the detective stuff to get the code and then registered for it since im a NA account and plugged it in on the redeem codebut its very very slow. I dont know why, maybe cause everyone is downloading it.

[QUOTE="Midnightshade29"][QUOTE="Illumination77"] Umm...no...Uncharted 2 is bad tomb raider rip off that brings nothing new or innovative of any kind to gaming, mgs4 has so many flaws and problemsi dont even know where to begin and Little Big Planet is just a bad platformer. GTA4 well...thats beating a dead horse. halo 3 was good but again, didn't bring ANYTHING NEW to the table. I could go on. games like heavy rain, uncahrted, resistence 2 get 9.5's not because they're awsome games but because if they don't fan boys will crash whole gamigng websites with nerd-raging complaints.Illumination77

because sales = quality and all the goty awards it got doesnt mean anything because you think the game was terrible and its almost at 3 million sold so i guess anything under 3 million is not good.

[QUOTE="Illumination77"]

[QUOTE="Midnightshade29"] I take it you didn't play any of those games hmmm... Going by the lack of ps3 in your "now playing:" sig and I know you haven't or you wouldn't be bashing all those great ps3 games.karsa-orlong

Don't even try to reason with him. Fan boys will always believe whatever they are brainwashed to believe, and thus miss out on great games generation after generation.

Yes, guys, all PS3 games are flops, and nothing released on the console has ever deserved more than a 7.0.

Will you sleep well tonight, guys? :)

Good to see it getting great scores, good for those interested in it, I'll pass on it though, maybe if they release an NA demo i'll try it, or if I'm feeling frisky I might rent it, but Heavy Rain just doesn't get my purchase.Im_single

Thats your opinion man.

And you'd know that Uncharted if anything, is a Indiana Jones ripoff. Anyways, practicaly all the games released with a 9+ score i agree with. Well GTA IV will be an exeption...

And yeah, half a milion copies sold in 3 months is absoloutley nothing...
Halo:CE sold cuz it was the only game worth buying for the Xbox for a long time...

Illumination77

why have i not gotten this issue yet?

Surprising. Really. I figured everyone would dog it for not being "a game". Which I think it is, personally but considering the general reception. I'm glad, I hope the score stays around the same elsewhere. Can't wait to get it.

If Heavy Rain was on the 360, would you still be thinking that?

So selling out and hyping an interactive movie is trying new things? If Phillips had Sonys approach, we all would of loved the CDI...
