26th Feb - Heavy Rain

Heavy Rain
Publisher: Quantic Dream
Developer: Sony Computer Entertainment
Platform: PS3
Release date: 26th February, 2010.

In Heavy Rain, the gameplay and the storyline will be equally as important and every action that you take in the game - and every interaction with another character - will have a consequence that could send the storyline spinning in a whole new direction. One thing that Quantic Dream has teased us with is that Heavy Rain will "tackle subject matter and themes rarely touched upon in video games". What this means we’re not entirely sure, but we believe that through its cinematic experience and depth of characters they hope to engage us fully and emotionally into its immersive storyline. Indeed we're promised "an emotional experience unlike any other."
