| First of all i dont get how can Sony Underhype such a huge IP ! A game which is having a pedigree of Indigo Prophecy/farenheit ! I mean how can this game be ignored ! No demo during the press confrence ! I am a bit pissed ! | |

| Can someone explain to me what this game is? All I've heard about it is that it's an interactive experience in which your choices change the outcome of the game. I don't know anything else! | |

| The best explanation I have is that it's the video game version of those old "Choose your own adventure" books. It's basically like watching a movie, but every action you do or do not make changes how the story unfolds. So story-telling is no longer linear, and the plot can unfold completely differently each time you play the game (assuming you don't make the exact same decisions and actions every time). | |

| this is in my top 3 anticipated games. But it isn't coming to 2010 so that is bad. But I can't wait for this game. It deserves a lot of respect. | |

| I bet sony were dying to show heavy rain and ratchet at their E3, but they couldnt fit everygame.
They still had a demo at E3 but not in the conference, look on youtube or something. | |

| This is going to start the re-rise of Sony. Microsoft may have won so far, but Sony's back and better than ever!! | |

| I am not saying that. I am just anxious for a game. And also...time does not equal polish always. In this case, yes, but not all. And it wouldn't be a bad game. They already have at least 2 characters complete out of the 4. So you would get half the game but with the same great gameplay. They have already showed some of this off. But to the point. I am just anxious for it. And I am also trying to get to the point of saying...I am tired of companies hastling the earlier releases then post-poning it. | |

I will have to save up to buy both of them...but they are BOTH a MUST HAVE! I am a God of War fan but I am a big plot guy when it comes to games. So if I had to choose one though...I would choose Heavy Rain because of it. | |

| But the fan following for the GOW III is huge ! I am afraid that heavy Rain might be overshadowed.! | |

| i guess this time again, it will be proved that sales don't actually represent how good the game is. | |

And Ninja Storm isn't going to make another one. They don't like Sony or something? | |
