I still have not picked up my copy. Stupid empty bank account.

K it was worth it

Well I got myself a lovely little glitch. Feels like Far Cry 2 all over again.

:mad:

What happened

ClockShot 02-26-2010 09:16 PM

SPOILER: show
Well, I just finished chopping off my finger, and me and the girl are running from the cops. I get caught in the subway station and stopped playing for the day there. I go load it up today and it keeps freezing up. Can't replay old chapters or nothing.


Kinda like in Far Cry 2 when I hit the 67% glitch.

I bought it and played it for a few hours and then returned it the next day. I really couldn't be bothered to "play" the game. It was by no means bad, but I do feel it's getting a wide berth by video game "journalists" because it's so different from most titles. I respect what the dev team did but I don't see why they didn't add some good adventure game puzzles(maybe they do latter in the game) and I also don't feel as though the narrative couldn't be told in a more traditional game genre, I also feel that if your going to have a story driven game then the story should be superb which isn't something that I think the game achieves(keeping in mind I didn't beat the game).

The biggest let down to me however was that the decisions made in the game seemed to have little to no difference in the way the scene plays out. It's more regular novel than choose your own adventure.

Some of the good points are when the action picks up and there's a fight scene or action scene and also at making you feel sympathy and various other emotions for the characters. I really loved the P.I and felt depressed for the father when everything falls apart for him.

Again, the dev team deserves kudos for making a great looking game and for trying to push new genres but in my mind the game isn't worth full price.

No probs mate.

Finished the game, not sure what i think about it yet. Read about the other endings, and mine seemed to be one of the better ones. The last 4 or so hours I played straight through as things really picked up. I still do have some unanswered questions though that could be considered plot holes maybe. But overall fun to play through.

This game is crap. It's all about the graphics that is it basically. Stupid game will be taking back in the morning.

CSL 03-10-2010 12:35 PM

Trade you it for Modern Warfare 2

moonface 03-10-2010 01:06 PM

Done.


Was starting to get a little bit excited when I was the big fat guy, he was going seeing jonnys mum who's a hooker :D but no, not even a rape her button :(

will carry on playing till the football comes on. I'll let you know if anything good happens ha.

Big Fat Mike 03-10-2010 01:31 PM

lol "not even a rape her button"

moonface 03-10-2010 02:30 PM

"why the fuck is this game so fucking depressing"


Seriously, his kids dead, wifes a hooker, live in a dingy house and is emo fucked to death.


Omg this game.

moonface 03-10-2010 02:31 PM

Worst game ever.

moonface 03-10-2010 02:33 PM

If I was depressed I would be seriously considering "offing" myself right now.


Luckily I'm not, time for football :)

D Mac 03-10-2010 02:36 PM

lol moonface

Finally getting to play this. Fucking great story. You get into it and want to fucking play more to find out what happens.

D Mac 04-11-2010 11:50 PM

Finally beat it. I was pissed when I found out who the killer was. :mad:

Had the good ending, saved the kid. Everybody alive, except for the obvious one.

The ending definately sets up a sequel.

Quantic Dream designer David Cage had said in a Gamescom 2009 interview that a sequel would be unlikely:
“I’m not sure there will be a Heavy Rain 2. I’m not a guy who does sequels, because, when you work on a story, you have something to say. It’s a response to a moment of your life and what you want to express.”

D Mac 04-12-2010 02:34 AM

It's all about the money, and this game did very well so I'm sure they'll make one.

...how?

Anyway, G and I finished this game recently. I liked it. I'm sorry that Moonface, Metal Gear Yoshi, and Icess didn't. Some of the voice acting was off. Sometimes there was a Boston accent and then the next sentence, he was British. All of the kids sounded weird too. The music was boring also. I think there was two or three themes that continually played throughout the whole game. It was still a fun game though. I'm going to look at the other endings and see what changes.

Um,

SPOILER: show
After you beat it and get a good ending with the chick alive, at her book signing some guy tells her she needs a better "challenge". And you can't see the guy's face.


Or did you not get that ending.

So did the poison in the final challenge actually kill Ethan? I drank it and then drove to the wrong address (even though it was 825 Theodore Roosevelt Road, which was the right address) and he just got out of the car and was just like "a restaurant? a fucking restaurant?" and then it faded away and I had to control another character.

In the ending, it showed Ethan and Shaun looking at a new apartment, obviously with Ethan alive, and with all of his fingers, even though I made him cut one off. What's going on there? Was that Shaun's dream or something? A bunch of things didn't make sense at the end of the game.

Oh, I guess in that video Ethan is missing part of his pinky. Dunno if I just missed that or what.

Ultra Mantis 09-21-2011 12:55 PM

SPOILER: show
It wasn't really poison, it was just a test to see if he was willing to sacrifice his own life to save Shaun's.
