Pros:
- Stunning graphics
- Some of the best music ever committed to Blu-ray
- A refreshing, brand new experience for PS3 owners
Cons:
- The on-foot controls clash with the otherwise great animation
- Makes Metal Gear Solid’s cut-scenes look like snippets
- Probably won’t be what you expected.
"Heavy Rain has arrived with a bang. It’s flashy, technically stunning but ultimately slightly empty. Characters vary from vapid to engaging, the FBI agent a highlight but lead Ethan tends to look bored rather than desperate. If you’re looking for a decent story with minimal interactivity to occupy a wet weekend, one cut with mystery and suspense, Quantic Dream’s latest might be right up your street, but gamers looking for anything else will be left out in the rain. A great idea, but unfortunately one not fully realised."

Final Score = 7/10.
I'm still getting it. I am eager to try something new and the cons they pointed out really don't affect me like it does with others.
