Heavy Rain Critic Reception

- I do not feel that this is an adventure game, because you're just pretty much watch a characters life with interaction buttons, but your decisions depending on which button you press could spell out the truth or the end for you.

 

Tell me EXACTLY what is different about it than another adventure game.  What are you "watch"ing in this game that you dont in every single other adventure game?  When you are talking about all you do is press a button, you are talking about the control scheme, which is different, yes - but a different control scheme doesn't make it change genres.
