Heavy Rain is essentially an adventure game, one where you take control of various people throughout the story that revolves around the Origami Killer, someone who is kidnapping young boys and murdering them. The Move Edition is especially fun, making very good use of the controller. One of the action scenes I got so carried away that I managed to knock a glass off the table I was so engrossed with the story. The soundtrack, several PlayStation animated Themes and a bonus scene named The Taxidermist come on the disk too. Highly recommended game.

Heavy Rain is like being in an interactive movie with interesting characters, twists and plot.

Heavy Rain is a great game. The way it pans out makes it feel like you're watching a movie! It lacks action a little bit, but it doesn't matter that much, because everything else about this game is brilliant. I highly recommend it.

Well this game is just perfect. Makes a lot of movies look bad. I recommend it because it is indispensable for anyone who likes to play.

Heavy Rain is one of the best games that I've ever played. The atmosphere of the game and his characters are perfect. The way that a player can choose how the story evolves is unique. I fully recommend it!

The Move edition gives a whole new aspect to Heavy Rain. It made me feel like I was playing in a movie and that I was the main star.

What an immense game. Truly stunning. This is definitely one of the best games I have played in a very long time. The story is extremely compelling and your decisions really do push and pull the narrative in the most subtle of ways - there are apparently 22 different endings!!! Move support is very well implemented. Due to there not being HUNDREDS of games supporting Move, this was one of the first that I've had to use in a quicktime-related environment. There is a bit of a learning curve with the button layouts but nothing too taxing - can get a little confusing remember where everything is though haha! Probably just me though! A real pleasure to play. There are some truly unnerving plot points in the game thanks to the realisation of all the characters, which is then compounded by the great use of Move. I cannot recommend this experience more highly - just be prepared that the first half-hour is very tranquil and slow-paced - not a portrayal of the rest of the game - its a scene-setter! My only gripe is the clumsy character movement sometimes. Trying to get them to turn around and line up with something can be very frustrating - very resident evil. On the flip-side, the characters all feel very 'weighted' and set in their world. While it would be nice to be able to move them about a little easier - its a small gripe that doesn't ruin the game at all. Play it and pray Quantic Dream are busy well into their next project.

Heavy Rain is a completely new kind of game. The whole game is based on quick-time events. There are some riddles in the game, which can be solved, but you don't have to solve them. Depending on the choices the player makes, the story takes an other direction. The story of the game is very good and you feel the emotions of the characters yourself. A must buy!

The Game delivers a stunning and absorbing story which will entertain you several hours. A second or third playthrough is recommended, because of the variety of endings you may get.

Heavy Rain is one of the best PS3 exclusive games and one of the best interactive adventures of all time. With great graphics and sound offers a stunning visual and audio perfomance, but the best part of the title is it's plot and the way it evolves while playing various characters. Each one has his own life, his own concerns and his own ending. Anyone can die and the game will continue. Everything happens real-time with amazing reactions from the characters and a story that unfolds so mysteriously and vividly that has no match in any other game. A must have game.
