A Dramatic Adventure

A few holes don't take away from the fact that Heavy Rain delivers a dramatic plot unlike any interactive entertainment to come before it. The graphics are not to be ignored, and are marred only by clunky walking animation and control. I can not properly review it without drawing at least one parallel to film, that which would be the cameras and set design. It's all very cinematic in it's presentation with just enough interaction to keep the player engaged. Heavy Rain is a narrative adventure that literally kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. It's well worth anybody's time that's looking for something new, something engaging and some glorious full frontal nudity.
