    The Good:- Very interesting narrative. Hooks you in. Like a good mystery detective show.- Voice acting is good- many of your decisions will impact the outcome. Not only the final outcome, but outcomes throughout your pla... Read Full Review

    Affects emotions greatly, and destroys your feeling of the game being so predictable

    Interesting concept

    After finishing an epic 100 million hours of playing Witcher I decided it was time to mix it up. No more sword slashing monster killing. So I decided to try something different. Heavy Rain looked like something completel... Read Full Review

    There's an age old question - can games qualify as art? That is a very subjective question as one needs to ascertain what qualifies as art. However, once in a while a game does show up that raises this very question yet ... Read Full Review

    Great story line and characters, although some shaky voice acting. Great twists and very engaging. Let down by unnecessary control issues. Violently shaking my controller repeatedly is the least fun thing I have ever be... Read Full Review
