I just read parts of the review in OPM. Game got a 5/5 and the Editors Choice award for the month

The demo really got me more excited for this game. Seeing game video's is one thing, but actually playing it and seeing how responsive the controls was assuring to me. It was my only question about it going in. Can't wait for the 23rd.

I just played it. The fight scene was intense but fun! I dont care if the game is QTE bc its done effectively and the animations are great. I also liked the use of the SIXAXIS controls. One thing I dont like that will take getting used to is having to hold R2 in order to walk. Id rather use just the analog stick for that and R2 for looking around. I also wish you could run.

Im REALLY impressed with just how great the graphics are. The character models are up there as among the best on any platform. Add in the fluid animations, amazing sound, good voice acting, intrguing storytelling and you have one spectacular cinematic experience

the URL referenced above is for England as the end of the URL is for GB. I found this out by trying to several times to redeem the code and it not working. I changed the end of the URL, signed up, went through the clues again, got my code, and I am now currently downloading the demo.

 

[uchiha_itachi]

Cheers man!! im downloading now...in 77mins ill be playing haha

 

[KALEL114]

Your welcome.

The wait is worth it though.

 

[uchiha_itachi]

I hope so. Ive been waiting for some sort of demo for ages just to see if i like the style of game....or even what that style is lol

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I believe the technical term for Heavy Rain's style of game is "awesome."

 

[uchiha_itachi]

Haha 52mins to gooooooooooo lol

Caved and got the demo on the DL, I've already played the Shelby/shop mission back in October so I thought I might as well.

I've got high hopes, I really do.

 

[uchiha_itachi]

So i played it.................I need it lol 100% converted to this game now.

great news and thats exactly what a demo should do. Its reassuring that its putting some people's fears and misconceptions at ease. I hope it becomes a success. Only 2 weeks away

I love that it has such high replay value. You will have to play the game multople times just to see how different characters react to different scenarios and interactions. I only played the demo once but I will go back to see how things change up depending on the actions I choose the next time

 

[Superhero 101]

I can't wait to play the demo in a few days

Awesome! The demo is so fun. I think I have it played 4 times already.

 

[Electro UK]

Eh... I still dunno. I had hoped I'd warmed to this control style by now, but things like holding down buttons to step past a garbage container, or having to stop and flick the sick just to move under the police tape still really put me off.

I'm not saying it was bad or crap, it's just not exactly what I look for. When Nate puts his hand against the wall to squeeze through a tight gap or something in Uncharted, by simply walking up to it, that makes much more sense to me.

Also, Jayden's glasses really put me off, as they completely contrast the rest of the game's excellent noir feel.

I'll still get it, the story completely intrigues me, just not sold on it.

 

[Benstamania]

I've kept myself completely in the dark for this game...I know next to nothing about it and I like it that way.

 

[Nathan]

Nice demo, I just wish it could've been a bit longer.

 

[Electro UK]

Played it again and prefered it a bit more this time. Dissapointed in the lack of ways the Shelby scene could end though. I just watched him get the crap kicked out of him the 2nd time, and it all ends the same. The only real difference is just walking off without saving her.

It does seems somewhat out of place compared to the detective segment, but I didn't find it all that off putting to the noir feel.

 

[uchiha_itachi]

The FBI thing was a lil....oh right? ok? but im not bothered by it tbh.

To be fair, there's not really a lot of ways that situation could have ended. The only other way I think it could have been altered is talking the guy down, but I doubt many horny, drugged out losers would be in the mood for talk.

I'd say that ties into something that will happen later.

 

[uchiha_itachi]

I think Walking away or beating him up is the choice there. no need for anymore. especially with such a small part.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Well, after playing the demo again I have to agree about what was said earlier in some previews about the voice acting. It seemed pretty flat in a lot of places. Selby and Jayden didn't seem all that bad (though nothing great), but most of the other stuff seemed kind of dull
