Acclaimed Fahrenheit developer Quantic Dream has bought the latest motion capture technology from Vicon for its top secret PlayStation 3 exclusive. The studio has already been installed at Quantic Dream, with the developer hard at work on four month's worth of motion capture for the Sony title.

Ben from Netto's Game Room takes a look at 7 video games where dying doesn't mean the end, as the story and world simply continue on without you.

We present a list of horror games with depressing endings, each known for its unique experience and storytelling.

"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.
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.
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.
whether mo-capped or drawn up. Procedural generation is the way to go if you ask me, it's infinitely more dynamic.
I dont know if most of you have played Indigo Prophecy (Farenheit), but Heavy Rain can be either a sleeper hit or a potential blockbuster title depending on how Sony markets this.
Indigo Prophecy was an excellent game with fresh and innovative concepts, but the game was clearly rushed and you can tell by the unspectactular ending. I would like to think that with Heavy Rain being exclusive to PS3, Sony will make Quantic Dream delay the game if need be to ensure that the game is good.
I for one am anticipating this game very much.
Whatever happened with Xfire partnering with Sony to bring Xfire to PS3?
The trailer or rather tech demo certainly looked good. Mo-Cap made the cutscenes in Heavenly Sword amazing, for how few that there were, I certainly hope this is longer then HS, lol. HS certainly set the standard for Mo-Cap but it can definately be improved on.
can't wait for even more info on this.
" Director David Cage noted that Heavy Rain "will be a very dark film noir thriller with mature themes", without any supernatural elements.
The game will feature a story that is interactively "bendable", similarly to Fahrenheit.[3] It's been told by the creators, that "the character control mechanism is an essential part in playing Heavy Rain", and is different from the system used in Fahrenheit. The player will be able to control different characters in the game"
