Heavenly Sword.

But if I had to pick: Heavy Rain. Anybody who picks Mass Effect is a n00b who hasn't seen the Heavy Rain trailer.

Isn't that Heavy rain shot from that tech demo they did for their engine? And not actually connected to the actual game at all?

Nope. Can't hide your fanboyism lol

You won't even experience Mass Effect in all its HD glory. Judging games but you play on SD :roll:

Are you kidding me? Heavy Rain's facial emotions take leaps over what any game's rigs have accomplished today. When you see a character talk in Mass effect it looks quite bland compared to the rather accurate and subtle facial expressions of heavy rain. No contest, Heavy Rain.

For now I'm going with Mass Effect simply because it's graphics have been proven to be in-game. Heavy Rain is still too far from a final product to know wether the final engine will pull those graphics off.

in terms of sheer realism:

heavy rain by miles..."mary smith" felt likea real person. Bioware are very good at creating really asorbing storylines, and universes, but they're characters are just flat archeytpes a helluva lot of the time. nothing realistic at all about them.

if someone's ill-tempered that's pretty much them all over.

The TC said facial expression, not facial details. Could you tell me what that guy is feeling in that pic of mass effect? Case closed, Heavy Rain is much better at showing facial expression.

Failure. It was a showcase of an engine for all consoles. No longer for 360 now.

No you don't have an HDTV

what makes heavy rain more realistic is that it has the smooth skin. Mass effect has noticible bump mapping which gives it a graphical look.

Was Heavy Rain actually real-time though? On PS3 hardware? In a gameplay environment?

If not then its a stupid comparison.

Even with the technical glitches with Heavy Rain it will still look better than Mass Effect.

Mass Effect. Heavy Rain doesn't even have an actual estimated year of release yet. We know everything about Mass Effect and nothing about Heavy Rain. Technically, the Heavy Rain target render looks superior, but that's because it is a target render.

Mass Effect looks leaps and bounds better IMO

Also it is a real game, and real in game pics, not a vaporware without any in game pics or videos yet, but some bull videos and billshots only
