  • It may sound weird or aloof
  • But much of the emotional punch may be missing if you don't have children
  • A few subplots seem to peter out to nothing. at least in my
  • Heavy Rain is too filmic
  • One has to wonder why they didn't make an animated film instead of a game

  • Abstract:  Så er ventetiden endelig ovre! Heavy Rain er endelig kommet og det har ikke tænkt sig at skuffe nogen af de hungrende fans. Af et spil, der lover at være mere end et spil, er det meget sikker i sin sag og leverer en førsteklasses oplevelse uden s...

  • Den lækre stemning, karakterernes ansigtsudtryk. Den filmiske oplevelse.
  • Ikke for alle. Kræver tilvænning.

  • Abstract:  Regnen falder massivt, men solen skinner alligevel på Quantic Dreams seneste udspil, der leverer en filmisk og gribende oplevelse.Med et manuskript på over 2000 sider, 70 skuespilllere og 170 dage med virkelige optagelser, er det vist ingen skam at sig...

  • over at Heavy Rain indfrier forhåbningerne, og at man tør at lave et så anderledes film, og sætte så mange ressourcer bag at få det resultat frem på skærmen som jeg nu er i gang med at gennemføre for 3. gang.
  • Lidt over et par stereotype stemmeskuespillere, over nogle malplacerede kys - men egentlig overordnet kun over at der nok går en del år før noget i samme stil kan opleves igen.

  • Abstract:  En seriemorder, en privatdetektiv,en hotshot FBI-mand og en familiefar i sit livs krise er hovedingredienserne i et ganske modigt spilprojekt. Heavy Rain er anderledes, meget anderledes end noget vi har set hidtil. Det er smukt, forførende og sp...

  • Immersive storyline full of great plot twists that suck you in,
  • Floaty controls and bad button mapping is frustrating.
  • Heavy Rain is a game with a great storyline, amazing graphics and a vibrant game environment. It is worth the play, but you might sacrifice a controller in the process....
