  • This video has spoilers :(

  • This is one of the best games I've ever played. Any suggestions of similar games? 

  • Comment removed

  • @Laosohood Thanks but I only have a PS3

  • @lizzellotte It IS on ps3....

  • @mikecrevil I searched for Indigo Prophecy and only found it for PS2 and Xbox not sure why you're telling me it is on the PS3

  • Scott Shelby reminds me of Eddie Valiant

  • This is why I'm sad to not own a PS3.

  • @111matterman it is on the ps3 and its only 20 bucks now

  • Looks interesting, but i do not own a PS3.

  • The best ps3 exclusive IMO

  • What the fuck is this shit?

  • @p7byrd one of the greatest games of this generation. 

  • ?/10..

  • This gave me Shenmue teas.. anyone else??

  • JASON!

  • this game is awesome its got like 22 different endings sad its only on PS3

  • 1:33, i didnt now that guy woulb be in two great games, this and condemned

  • Wish they could make a movie based on this game,

  • Shooting a ball was never in the game :s

  • @PlatinumGX ye sit was go outside ethans apartment and you can shoot hoops

  • 3:34 i never played that scene:S

  • $15 on newegg

  • wish they would make A 2ND heavy rain

  • this game should've been done with LA Noire's face technology thing...

    would've been soooo much sicker

  • @pashapistolsoltani no, fuck no.

  • That woman in underwear...she's attacked by ninjas all the time o,O

  • this is worth getting a ps3 for

  • @MRmt1217 What kind of game is it? Is it action? Or slower pace action game? Or something else? Please reply.

  • There was a really trippy game that was alot like this released on the ps2/xbox years ago. Anyone remember the name? It played very similarly and had a weird name.

  • @JEFFTHEWRIGHT Fahrenheit 

  • @JEFFTHEWRIGHT fahrenheit/indigo prophecy but i dont remember it was released for xbox

  • For a game that is based on your decisions, I'm surprised it has low replay value. I would of thought u would be able play it over and over because u can rake a different route every time.

  • @JP8940 the issue with that would be that there is a central connection. without the origami killer or any central focus, the story won't have a gripping story to tell without boring you with the events leading to the different routes. it's also time consuming to construct multiple routes as well as figuring out a way to seamless implement them.

  • actually this reviewer got to attached to his character. This game has extremely high replay value. I think what he is trying to say is this game forces you to make choices you would make in real life if you was caught up in the same situations. In that sense in order to replay the game you have to make choices other than what you would do. I'm a good guy and my brother is narcissistic. I replayed the game and made choices he would make and the game was so disturbing I stopped playing it lol

  • Why?

    Why can't they just release it for PC and/or the XboX for more people to enjoy and appreciate?

  • THIS IS THE BEST GAME EVER WHEN THE ENDING GAME I WAS REALY SHOCKED

  • Who cares about systems... I own an xbox, but beat this game at my friends house. Its one of my favorite games of this gen actually. Just shut the fuck up you guys. To each their own.

  • There should be more games like this

  • @septimus005 try Cause of death on iphone. It's not as engrossing or emotionally gripping as Heavy rain, and mostly just involves reading as there is no voice acting, but the storyline is still pretty good and your outcome still differs.

  • @septimus005 I know but, I think if every game were like this, it wood become rather boring

  • @MrLolmaster101 he said more games not evey game

  • this video is EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!! 

  • @septimus005 Cart life is an intresting game like it, but its 2d and doesnt have a very good story

  • The flashouts of ethan are because he went in coma when he tried to save shaun...

  • 0:46 "i wished i had lived long enough to look into the eyes of the man who killed my Reza." ......foreshadowing like a champ

  • I think I'm one of the few people who thought this game was stupid.

  • @austinthebookworm5

    probably

  • @Droidek74415

    yeah I thought the storytelling METHOD was innovative and clever but... the actual story I thought was cliched, capricious and undercooked.

  • @austinthebookworm5 Emm... cliched, capricious and undercooked?? If heavy rain story didn't please you, no story will... I mean there were no saving the world/princess/universe bullcrap we get everytime(that already gives it a better story than 95 percent of the games). I get the feeling that you got tired of good endings.. try getting the bad ending instead... no movie/game ever ends up like that, especially after connecting you with the characters.. Pardon my bad english(I'm still learning)

  • @SpaardaLT

    no; there have been countless game stories that I have loved

    as I said before, I loved the presentation, but felt like I was playing through a bad episode of C.S.I

  • @austinthebookworm5 Well.. can't argue with someones taste, personally I think the only good thing on C.S.I are the *glasses-YEAAAAAH* parts. I prefer Dexter when it comes to criminal/killer tv shows.

  • @SpaardaLT Dexter is awesome!

  • What are the plotholes and onconsistencies, I didn't notice any

  • this game, is simply, AMAZING!!!!!!!! i love it, not my fav game on ps3, but still AWESOME!

  • @Kazuia20 An idiot? My intellectual being is well above yours in every minor and major way possible. Your feeble attempts at insulting me are poor. Your unoriginal and boring patter is dreadful. It's clear to me that I'm getting to you if you have to resort to insults such as 'stupid bitch.' What's wrong? Did I get on your nerves when I outsmarted you and you decided on giving up your original point by changing the subject? Aw, cry more faggot.

  • @aidenmccloskey i think he got to you, you called him a faggot

  • @TheMNhockey1 I call lots of people faggot when trolling.

  • @Kazuia20 Thanks for giving up on your previous point and changing the subject because I proved you wrong. You're as much of a fan boy as I am considering you're willing to argue the point.

  • @Kazuia20 Alan Wake is a psychological horror/ detective game - Heavy Rain is a psychological thriller/ detective game - yes, it goes to show just how smart I am, I have my facts straight. You on the other hand, maybe not. Try again.

  • Alan Wake > Heavy Rain

  • @aidenmccloskey

    You really went to BOTH video reviews just to post that? I think it may be time to rethink some life choices.

  • this was the most recent game i have played with a story that truly grabbed me. I am hoping mass effect 3 will do the same

  • my only complaint is the whole slogan of "one choice can change everything", which is not true, but it was a great experience

  • Good review.

  • They need this on the 360!

  • @CameronGavinCash 360 system can't handle it

    and 360 dun have blu ray

    that why it not in 360

  • @mikomikuxx Nice grammar.

  • @mikomikuxx that's completely bullshit. if the 360 can handle L.A. Noire it can handle Heavy Rain. please, don't be a moron.

  • @aidenmccloskey i not moron or anything :D

    if you say it can handle heavy rain

    why don't you complain to them =w=b

  • @mikomikuxx because i'm complaining to you for talking straight out your arse.

  • @aidenmccloskey since you LOVE this game a lot

    why don't you buy ps3 =w=

    and it already said 'exclusive for playstation only"

    it might have reason for not putting xbox 360

    BITCH! TROLOLOLOLOLOL

  • @mikomikuxx unsuccessful troll is unsuccessful. lrn2troll.

  • how can you just give this 8.5...

    Its a technical marvel... I mean... no game is so immersive as this...

  • Love it :)

  • This game looks boss chris smoove had a smoove move showing me this game

  • This game feels more like a movie.

  • for all how is wonderring if the game is worth it the anser is helll yeah the strory is amazing i have never exspiriansed a grate story like this ever b4 the story is a master pice

  • loved this game. it was something new. a interactive movie video game. controlling the characters movements was great. i was trying to get all the endings for this game. but for some reason i couldnt get all of them. so i gave up. wish they made some new games similar to this style. and yes alot of people i know dont like this game. but they more into simple games (army shooters and sports games) but fuckem. GREAT GAME ! SOMETHING NEW FOR A CHANGE! also im into serial killers. perfect !

  • not the game for me :L

  • Underrated game

  • Some people just does not understand or don't like the concept of this game.

    Its not about challenge, action or anything like that.

    Its an interactive story. It is a movie, in which you have a say of how it goes.

    And that movie inside this game is wonderful.

  • best game eva...Using the QTE was easier than First Person (COD..)..cod sucks!! sorry COD fanboy!!

  • nice ass scene

  • i wish this game came out with more add on

  • Guys i think you are exaggerating.. Yes heavy rain is a really good game.. It's deffinitelly the most engaging game out there.. But it does has flows that come from the nature of the game itself. For me it's an 8.5/10.. All i want to say is that many exaggerate when they say its "teh best game eva"!! And before you blame me remember that im one of the ones who like the game

    PS The game is not as replayable as many say.. Even if you kill a character

  • Shut the fuck up and enjoy the video!

  • In the end(on my game) he got his kid back, didnt die, maddy is still alive, the oragami killer is still running loose and that FBI person is dead all cause i messed up 2 actions D: i was so drawn into the game, when he died, i was like SHIT!

  • i want to know what started this comment war

  • Is this better than L.A Noir?

  • @morganrd5 absolutely

  • @morganrd5 way better

  • @morganrd5 i personally think so. Heavy rain is a game long story line and la nior is a bunch of mini cases. So depending on what you're into. Like a movie or tv show. Both equally good though

  • .I nearly died when I had to make Ethan cut his finger off.

  • More like a profound and depressing game that will make you want to put a drill to your head

  • sorry for sounding like a noob but what does fps games mean?

  • @narutothewinnerof100 first person shooter

  • Ethan reminds me of Edward Norton... but icant wait till my friend gives me this game for my birthday :D

  • This is the only game I've ever played that made me cry. I never knew that games were so powerful psychologically until I played this.

  • @nelson32112 check out infamous 2. Or both for that matter. The evil ending of infamous 2 made me cry

  • Kids, remember the days before video games became simple point and shoot at shit action? Yes, this is one of them. Now, I'm not saying blowing shit up isn't fun, but just because there aren't explosions every other second doesn't make it a bad game.

  • Oh yeah, real life can't even get a good score. Go back to your fantasy world where everything is perfect gamestop.

  • @TheDieHard777 for one, who wants a game thats exactly like real life, this isnt exactly so dont call it that, also they need to get those sunglasses to live in their fantasy world :P

  • @zbddbzproductions Like I said. Nothing is perfect. So there is no way in hell they can nail real life to the dust particles on the ground. If you expect it to be perfect, then you will be disappointed.

  • Goddamn, why are people talking crap on a game trying to be different. God, you can't even eat a sandwich these days without getting criticized.

  • Once I played this game I couldnt stop, even thought it has gameplay flaws the brilliant story and bond with the characters overshadow it, I could seriously say this was one of the greatest and thought proviking games I have played, but it takes a certain taste to actually like it.

  • I don't understand why you guys care what system people play.

    Does it really matter?

  • @Periwinkleton

    AMEN TO THAT

  • @Periwinkleton Yes, My Dreamcast owns all. 

  • @Periwinkleton yes cos xboxers miss out on heavy rain

  • @apdragon321 Why would that be? Just because you're not mature, intelligent, or old enough to understand the game it doesn't mean you have to call people who do like it trolls. Go and play Call of Duty with 10 million 6 year olds if you can't handle this.

  • @RavenSlash33 ok people need to know i hate cod and this game, and i am 15, i am smart, and i am tired of realism, is real life so amazing that you had to play a somewhat dark game to feel what you feel in a movie you just have to direct it? and if im not the mature one, why am i not having a hissy fit, and making fast assumptions? seriously, find better things to do with your time them bashing people on youtube.

  • @apdragon321 Listen kid, you’re the one who started calling me a troll when I made an innocent comment on a review. What exactly are you doing here, trolling people watching games that you don’t like? There’s not much point in doing that if you’re going to act like a child, trying to start piss fights with other games who happen to enjoy Heavy Rain. If you try to irritate another people on youtube you should expect responses like this. Hopefully you’ll learn that someday.

  • @RavenSlash33 gee i did that friggen 4 weeks ago, a month ago i was having personal issues so get over it, dont make assumptions and chill, im over it, still dislike the game but i did not need to call you a troll and you did not need to assume i was a 6 year old cod junkie, alright kid?

  • @apdragon321 I didn't say you were a six year old. I said you could go and play with millions of six year olds. I didn't say you were six years old. And if you are really over it, why are you still responding? Besides, if you want to call me a kid then that's considered trolling as well. If you keep bothering me I can get nasty as well, and you don't want to see that.

  • @RavenSlash33 i am not trying to get nasty, i simply called you a kid cause you called me one and i am not a kid. im responding cause you keep responding and im srry i thought you meant i was one of the six year olds.

  • @RavenSlash33 lmao word man.simple minded kids/fools wont like this game. looks like a job for the ORIGAMI KILLER.

  • @1pothead I agree.

  • @VGTalkshow troll, its a crap game and people need to not spend 60 bucks on a movie that you direct w/ a controller. thats like a kid gimmick.

  • @apdragon321 thats not what smart people think...didnt you watch the reviews of this game?you are on one of those videos,so theres no point in trolling on a video review of a great game,but you are one of those kids who think that cod and halo are actually innovative,which is retarded.you need to see the history of video games,and then you will change your mind,there is''all your history are belong to us''by machinima,its a show about history of game developers,so go watch some of their videos.

  • @MotherPunker970 nice assumption, but i dislike cod, and like halo cause halo is something you will never do in your life, that makes it different. i like fighting, and strategy games cause they make me use my head, this game, no matter what you do, you would not feel like you should have thought better cause there are so very few things to do in this game. think bout what u say before you make a stupid assumption plz.

  • @apdragon321 are you good wit your head?have you played the game?have you even watched the reviews???didnt every-fucking-body say that BASED ON YOUR CHOICE ON WHAT TO DO,THE GAME WILL PROGRESS???now,you stop making stupid assumptions,PLZ...

  • @MotherPunker970 if u saw my comment then then u know that i have played the game, yes it is your chois on what to do, but ain't that just saying that its a movie that what you want to happen at the end will happen? i wanted the guy to save the kid at the end, he did, i wanted to killer to beat up that guy, he did... WHAT WAS THE POINT? it was easy, to easy, and boring. in my opinion, if you want to direct a boring movie, then fine but i dont.

  • @apdragon321 So your saying you did everything correctly, and didn't miss one thing? Hard to believe for someone who doesn't like the game. If you didn't like it why did you play through the whole thing? Also I'm guessing @RavenSlash33 was right, you probably are a troll that plays too much COD. But I'm not gonna get mad over someone being blind at seeing a good game. But if you dont like it, thats you, I can't stop that.

  • @playman579  thx for admitting that i have an opinion, but plz, do realize i am a gamer that likes the unrealistic, realism is lame, i live in the real world and its the same almost everyday, so when i see this game and play it? i see just a virtual real life. cod is to boring and to repetitive, just like this game to me. so plz understand that i dislike this game and COD ok? don't own ether anymore.

  • @apdragon321 oh really?so the game is giving you the choice from the beggining to save the kid and thats what he does?you are forgetting the whole plot in the middle,and EVERYWHERE you go you have some kind of a choice,the game is not like la noire,where you can beat the game even if you dont know who did what,who,why,where,when etc...and if it was that easy as you say,then turn up the difficulty...

  • @MotherPunker970 it was at full difficulty from the start bro, just believe that I THINK its crap ok? do you think through youtube comments you can change my opinion? no! so stfu.

  • @apdragon321 better ask yourself do you think that?you started by saying ppl shouldnt spend 60 bucks cuz the game is crap...

  • @MotherPunker970 i cant be the man to say i take all that back, but i feel that people should not judge people on a youtube comment or a bad day, like you, i could assume your an immature, 12 year old that has no life cause you picked the name motherpunker, but im not. thats what i think separates me from the stereotypical commenter, not a single comment.

  • @apdragon321 This game requires a degree of intelligence to be appreciated, and judging by your shitty spelling and fucked up gaming philosophy, I'd say you're not a very bright kid.

  • @TheDominantRace yes i spelled a word wrong, yes i abbreviate, cause i have more important things to do then ague w/ some random hater, idk what your talking about w/ the philosophy, its opinion so don't blow up. i made that comment a month ago, doesn't a 21 year old have better things to do then ague about a game that i like and you don't?nttake a walk, go to a amusement park, play a game that did not come out a year ago, and chill.

  • this game is crap, its not a game, its an interactible movie! quick time events w/ multiple options make it an IN DEPTH quick time event, idk why this game has such a good rep. but it shows that you guys will buy, and like anything and all they need to do is make a very simple, and very shitty game

  • @apdragon321 just because all you like to do is blow stuff up on COD doesnt mean that a game with this unique and interactive style gameplay, instead of just mashing buttons, is bad

  • @MrVanstadog stop giving me crap bout something i did a month ago, i dislike games that are to easy and are to realistic cause video games are what take you out of reality. Yes i hate cod, even though everyone thinks i like it, its boring, repetitive and bad. i dont like this game, i dont care what you say.

  • wow spoilers are in this shit FUCKIN MOTHER FUCKERS!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Jayden: Tell me where you got the car!

    Mad Jack: Go fuck yourself in the ass!

  • One of the main characters is the Orgami Killer.

  • i dont give a fuck about graphics. if im having fun with the game then i like it

  • damn is this a movie or a game! make up your fuckin mind! LOL xD

  • need a game like this on 360

  • i have NEVER seen most of the scenes in this review

  • Its a realy good and Not Boring!

  • This game looks boring as hell!

  • @thechillguy85 the game is great if you have a hart and not a "bad ass gamer" if your not a retard withought a hart the game is great

  • @emonoe24 It might be fun, I haven't played it. It just looks kind of boring in this review.

  • My name... Is Ethan

  • Heavy Rain is one of the best games i ever play !! the story the characters and the Awesome gameplay makes this game a real masterpiece i really loved it and u cant put the the joystick until u finish it .. i also get platuinm in this game ..

  • Heavy Rain is a master piece 10/100 perfect game

  • @IvanPlayStation4LiFe... lol 10 out of a hundred isnt quiet a masterpiece lmao

  • @mbpatelss4

    Heavy Rain is perfect stop hating

  • @IvanPlayStation4LiFe... whos hating?... u actually wrote 10/100.... It was probably a typo but hey u know.... thats what it says..... dont shoot the messenger lmao

    Any way the only reason im here is 2 to c what this game is like and decide if i want 2 play it or not, cus im getting tired of playing MW2 online... played heavenly sword last and it was pretty shite.... the last good game i played was assasins creed brotherhood (amazing game)

  • @mbpatelss4

    no i didn't lol. anyways Heavenly Sword is awesome if u want to play a awesome PS3 game buy uncharted 1 n 2 or metal gear solid 4 or god of war 3 or heavy rain or infamous 1 or 2 or killzone 2 or 3 ps3 has tons of awesome games. assassins creed is super boring. n mw2 is the best cod.

  • @IvanPlayStation4LiFe... i have played all them games except for imfamous 2 and killzone 2 ... i played killzone 1 (awesome) just havent got around to the 2nd one yet and infamous 2 isnt out yet i dont think....

    seriously though assasins creed brotherhood is class, i played abit of the first 1st one and thought it was boring and got put off the whole series, but then i just gave the last one a chance because i heard good things about it.... trust me its one of those epic PS3 games

  • @mbpatelss4

    well one day i will finish assassins creed and infamous 2 is coming out here in the usa June 7th is out for hack ps3. killzone 1 2 3 r awesome i have them all epic master piece especially online.

  • @IvanPlayStation4LiFe D= assassins creed is not boring! unless your talking about the first one. but if your talking about the whole series FUCK YOU MAN

  • i played this game and i got the saddest ending

  • Hey Gamespot use your brains. The reason Ethan has blackouts isn't explained, because it doesn't have to be. It's to leave you, the gamer, guessing whether it's Ethan who is the oragami killer or not, it leaves Ethan also thinking he might be! He blacks out, and ends up at the same random spot in the rain...but that doesn't need explaining, the sole purpose of the blackouts is to leave you guessing who the killer is.

  • My fave game ever, buy this if you havnt

  • John Durant Jr is the killer, he had a ball operation as a young boy and never got over it.

  • LINEAR

    Nuff said.

  • I cry myself to sleep each night with this game
