I have played dozens and dozens of traditional adventure games from years back (back to scott adams adventures). Heavy rain is an old fashioned adventure game in a nice dress... said it a while ago.

I am interested to see if the consequences of action/non action are stark when i play it though.

 

not really. It's a revolutionary experience. It's not like point and click. you literally feel you are alive inside the world, its the most emersive experience i've ever had. Fantastic game design.

Actually, kowenicki is dead on.  It's not the new experience you think it is.  It's a classic style game with current day technology.
