honestly what do you expect from a game that originally started as a tech demo? Personally i don't think this game is going to do well simply based on its concept, sure people are going to be amused by the "graphics" but i don't see that driving sales once people see how the game plays. I think its going to end up somewhere around 80-85

Where did the game start as a tech demo ? It was a full fledged game from the start you seem to forget that Quantic Dreams have already made the same kind of game before it is called Farenheit : The Indigo Prophecy. This game was an 8.4 and the major critiscism was that the story was great but fucked up a bit towards the end, that the graphics were meh, that some "traditional" adventure elements weren't that great, that the camera was sometimes painful.

You can already tell that the story's gonna at least be on par or even better in Heavy Rain, that the game mechanics are better thought up, that  in the graphic and the interraction department alone HR blows IP out of the water.

it was a tech demo when it was showed first at E3
