Product Description Experience a gripping psychological crime thriller filled with innumerable twists and turns, where even the smallest actions and choices can cause dramatic consequences. the hunt is on for the Origami Killer, named after his calling card of leaving folded paper shapes on victims. Four characters, each with their own motives, take part in a desperate attempt to stop the killer from claiming a new victim. From the Manufacturer Heavy Rain is a dark, immersive and emotionally-engaging experience; one that expands upon the innovative ideas of 2005's acclaimed Fahrenheit to create a noir-thriller where decisions are charged with importance and actions can have drastic and unforseen consequences. In Heavy Rain you don't watch the story – you play it. the dynamic narrative unfolds through the players actions - not cut scenes - and every action has a consequence. the choices you make and the way you interact with other characters have repercussions throughout the storyline. With unprecedented responsibility over the fates of the game's characters, Heavy Rain is an emotional experience unlike any other as a mature game for a new world of adult gamers. From the team behind the critically-acclaimed Fahrenheit comes an even darker and more adult thriller, set to test the boundaries of video game storytelling. the story revolves around the hunt for a serial killer called the Origami Killer by four very different people: a FBI profiler, a private detective, an architect and a journalist.If one of them dies the fact is simply incorporated into the story and you carry on playing with the remaining characters until either the killer is caught or the game ends in failure. Although the story and characters are paramount the game still features plenty of action, playing out via quick time event sequences similar to Fahrenheit - where you have to press the buttons indicated on screen within a time limit. the game aims to be the most cinematic and emotional video game ever made - could this be the start of the game noir genre?

... dreams creates a narrative environment which makes you feel like you are the character you play
Studio Quantic dreams creates a narrative environment which makes you feel like you are the character you play. Their games are less games and more interactive Cinema. This game is an essential on PS3.It takes you to the darkest places of your psyche. It forces you to question yourself on things you would normally consider insane. Would YOU sacrifice everything for the ones you loves. Would you sacrifice yourself for the ones you love. Would you sacrifice others for the ones you love. These question hammer on you. The game seamlessly puts you in the shoes of individuals and makes you live their lives.I have played their previous work Fahrenheit( Indigo Prophecy) and found this game far more enjoyable. The control mechanics however do take some getting used to.The way emotions are portrayed is also brilliant. You can feel the stress of the characters in a life threatening situation as if it were your own heart thumping away. The divergent plot lines also make the game entertaining. It makes replaying the game a different story each time. Often you find that small changes in your decision compound in a butterfly effect way and leave far outside where you expected to be,The highs lift you, the lows crush you, the suspense thrills you and the emotions strike chords you didn't know you had.Play this game, it is so far Quantic Dreams Magnum Opus.
