WTF happen to the graphics this game look like an early ps3 game.

GiantFriendlyCrab6224d ago

this from an early alpha build, this game is coming in 2010. That video you watched last year was a showcase for what ps3 can do.

NMC20076223d ago

Well let's hope they make the PS3 do it, because it's obviously not doing it here.

Man_of_the_year6223d ago

QTE's do not show what the PS3 can do. Games like Dragons lair used QTE's several generations ago...QTE's can be done on any platform...It is not a game that can define what a console can and cannot do. I will take Dragons Lair cartoon animation over any other kind of of QTE game that mainly focuses on QTE's.

heyheyhey6223d ago

QTE's are only one part of what Heavy Rain is about..

Man_of_the_year6223d ago

QTE's may only be 1 part of the game...but they are the majority of the game since it is the most interaction with the game the gamer will be doing. The rest is story.

TheBand1t6223d ago

So you've played the game, Man of the year?

ViceKingz6223d ago

It's a nice change from all the running and gunning nowadays, wouldn't you say?

Man_of_the_year6223d ago (Edited 6223d ago )

I agree. I am actually very interrested in the game. Mostly the story. And i like how your decisions will have an impact on the overall gameplay and experience.

@TheBand1t - With all the recently released info about the game...do i really need to play it to understand the mechanics? It is all pretty much explained to you from the 1up articles. So give your head a shake would ya. Going by your rational i shouldn't get excited about it or any other game if i haven't played it yet.

WOW...looks like a movie.

Edit

I like the pic on the car.

Nambassa6223d ago

yea i hope you get to drive the cars. if any of u hav watched the new footage from gttv don't u think it looks a little TOO much like a movie? u barely ever got to move around urself. only when walking up to the black guy. then the rest of it was one huge qte sequence. i hope the whole game isn't like this...
i gotta say though, the graphics are amazing!

Ellessdee6223d ago (Edited 6223d ago )

well thats just a clip, who knows how much real movement is in the final game. they said there would be a lot of investigating, so your gonna be walking around locations and looking for clues and figuring out secrets. this game isn't focused much on real "gameplay" per say, at least not by modern standards, but more of just telling an interactive narrative. its a suspense thriller, not an action thriller.

anyways, i gotta say i find that main female character to be extremely attractive. now they're saying there will be sex scenes? hopefully shes in one, they're already showing her dancing in skimpy pantys in those clips :D cant wait to see that hahahahahah. (im so pathetic)

360 man6223d ago

looks very average.

if this is supposed to take on alan wake, youve gotta be kidding me

Panthers6223d ago

Wow 360 Man, no one said it was supposed to take on any game. It is simply supposed to entertain. But you wouldnt know because your too busy worrying about sales.

OmarJA6223d ago

does Alan Wake even exists ?

ultimolu6223d ago (Edited 6223d ago )

Get a life 360Man and stop trolling this article. There are people who actually care about games here.

Nobody mentioned Alan Wake at all and you had to be off topic as usual.

WhittO6223d ago (Edited 6223d ago )

No, Heavy Rain isnt supposed to take on Alan Wake... Uncharted 2, God of War 3, Rachet & Clank ACIT, Trico, inFAMOUS, MAG along with the rest of the incredible upcoming PS3 games, as well as Heavy Rain... are meant to take on Alan Wake (in which we have barely seen ANYTHING and what we have seen has not been for the 360 but for PC!)

Also, this looks like its JUST my type of game, its a "Heavy" story game which are my favourites.

Love the idea of playing through this story with 4 different characters which each have their own paths - which cross some time in the game. Also like the idea of when you die, the story changes and adapts to your actions and play through the rest of it as another character.

Even if this game was like 5 hours, the replay value would be triple (or should i say quadruple) that.

SevWolf6223d ago

@kionic

Please stop comparing video games to movies

"Many video games catch not only great commercial attention but remarkable critical attention as well. We have seen games like Heavy Rain, The Last of Us Part II, and even entries in the Metal Gear series described as fantastic interactive experiences, even heralded in the same way as Hollywood's greatest films.

I would suggest that not only is this an unfair comparison but also a harmful one. Video games, by their very nature, are an intricately different medium and should be weighed against one another rather than another form of media," Phillip writes for GF365.

Yes, please stop. They're better than most hollywood drivel nowadays.

BLAKHOODe2028d ago

I think Hollywood films will becoming increasingly more like video games in the future, especially as the world embraces the "new normal" from the pandemic. It makes sense, as games like Spider-Man: Miles Morales showcase just how realistically we're reaching in graphical capabilities, as well as showcase extreme action sequences in spectacular ways. And as time goes by, it'll get easier and cheaper to produce such "art", as well as create new star "actors" that never age, never die, never complain, never gets involved in scandals, etc. Technology is amazing and we're only just getting a taste of what it'll eventually be.

sourOG2028d ago

No. Some games are like movies.

medman2028d ago (Edited 2028d ago )

No. For the money spent, a quality game provides far more entertainment value than a quality movie. Especially when looking at what is going on in the world, and how a studio can attempt to pilfer from consumers by charging 30 dollars for Mulan via streaming. Ridiculous. There is no comparison....games all day.
