Abstract: Video review: February 25 $119.95 MA15+ PlayStation 3 Brushing teeth, shaving and nappy-changing may not be your idea of a fun videogame, but Heavy Rain is no ordinary console title. It goes against all traditional norms; no run-and-gun action, sci-fi themes o...
Superbly crafted story, believable characters, expertly evokes an emotional response from the player
Some may not be willing to accept the breaking of traditional gaming concepts
An emotionally engaging thrill-ride from start to finish, Quantic Dream's Heavy Rain is a superbly crafted interactive experience, told expertly through its stunning visuals and believable characters...
Fantastic story, and a successful achievement as an interactive movie. Graphics are very impressive in certain scenes. Emotionally engaging. Some of the tenses moments I have experienced in a game. Replay value if you want to see all the different outcome...
Some very bad voice acting. Realistic graphics can make some characters look strange. Sound, camera and graphical bugs. The story has a few major plot-holes. The early levels are a bit too slow, which may stop some players from getting into the game.
Abstract: So is it a movie, or ain't it? If the whole damn world can't decide, then how should you? Well, you could start by playing it. We wrote in our hands-on preview for Heavy Rain that "it's a game, not a film," but after playing the full version, it seems ...

die leider winzige Logikfehler aufweist, teilweise schwache, deutsche Synchronisation, zum Teil Tearing, hin und wieder Steuerungszicken
Die Frage des Gewissens schwebt wie ein Damoklesschwert über den Köpfen der Handelnden, der Schweiß steht auf der Stirn der Entscheider und das Herz schlägt in vermeintlich ruhigen Situationen spürbar bis in den Hals. So mitreißend war ein Spiel selten...
Ich bin hin- und hergerissen. Einerseits habe ich mich gefreut wie ein Schneekönig endlich neue Inhalte zu "Heavy Rain" spielen zu können, andererseits wirkt dieser separate Spielschnipsel wie eine kurze Demo des Spiels und ist vorbei, bevor man wieder...
Heavy Rain fällt beim Gameplay sicher aus dem Rahmen – aber die Atmosphäre ist einfach klasse! Wer erstmal angefangen hat, der kann kaum wieder aufhören. Ein interaktiver Film der Extraklasse und technisch einwandfrei in Szene gesetzt. Kaufen! Wertung:...
