Heavy Rain - "The Casting"

[HeavyRainLove]

Oh my god, I seriously cried.

[TheKidowen]

I love this! When I first saw this I knew that heavy rain was going to be amazing. Unfortunately I don't think we will be getting another game like heavy rain for a long time.

What is the song?

[Davideogamer]

Although the eyebrows are rather stiff (people generally shift their eyebrows quite a bit when they're emoting, and ESPECIALLY when trying to act out an emotion) and slightly detract from the scene, this is really impressive for something from way back in 2006. Now I'm really interested in playing the full game.

That isn't Lauren Winter tard...listen to the voice and look at the face. Yeah she has the same color hair and close to the same complexion, but it is not Lauren Winter, not by a long shot.

[darkdestroyer32]

It is the early model of Lauren Winter. Same voice but this trailer came out long ago, Quantic Dream has obviously made tweaks to the character.

[Keihzaru]

@TrunkLott do you realise this was a demo for the graphics? she is supposed to be Lauren but obviously the final model had tweaks "tard".

[MrDJRD]

This is lauren winter, she lost her son at the origami killer

[demonmurphy]

"Doesn't matter, she's too tall for the part."

What the Fuck!?

[BlueVane]

She's actually in the final game as a character called Lauren Winter!

Wow, this tech demo blew everyone away when it was first shown, and now it just looks so standard! We've got high standards in modern gaming!

[FuTeffla]

I could be wrong but I believe that the reason the lip-synching is poor is because Quantic Dream is a French company and therefore they lipsynch to fit French words. This causes problems when they translate to other languages, similar to the problems in Final Fantasy X in which scenes were initially animated to fit Japanese scripts. But I could be wrong!

[pikafan125]

you're probably right, because you can tell the actors wern't american

[ShadowWhiteHawk]

Well, the graphics are good, the animation is good, I liked the facial expressions.

The only problem was her mouth. It had awful lip-sync. In fact, it wasn't even just the SYNC, it was everything about her mouth. She had it wide open all the time and you could see her teeth EVERY TIME she said something! It was ridiculous.

That said, everything else was really good. Even the voice acting was pretty nice. I just hope they get someone else to animate the mouth, cuz the rest of the face is ok

[Guffed]

Are you lot joking? That's the worst lip-syncing I've ever seen!!!

[Girandhistacos]

Agreed, but the graphics are completely impressive.

[Guffed]

Agreed :)

[MalachiteR]

The graphics are terrible. The only good thing is the animation.

[BlueVane]

I just came from an HD version of this (it was buffering too slowly) and the graphics are fine, this low-quality video doesn't do them justice. Although we've risen to high standards in modern gaming, I remember this being amazing when it was first shown, now it's what we've come to expect of a major release.

[HeavyRainLove]

@BlueVane Uh...dude, have you looked at the year it was made? "The graphics are fine" my ass.

[weaponx111]

@Guffed you tard its the video the sound is off by a second

[Guffed]

Why the Hell have you singled me out? Most people on here have said the same thing.

I know what a 1-second delay looks like. THIS is bad lip-syncing. I have now played the full game, and it is very good. THIS is old and crap.

Idiot.

[ThemolasS]

this is just amazing... i love the irony

[aikidoka20]

this is amazing, does anyone know how i can get the music thats playing in the background ?

[mc14halo]

agreed

[nana0701]

WOW.. SHE TOUCHED ME...

[KnifeSoldier]

AMAZZZZINGG!
