I applaud Heavy Rain (and Indigo Prophecy along with it). It was a fantastic interactive movie. However, I don't want too see this genre become the norm. I think that Heavy Rain is a step in the wrong direction, whereas Braid is a step in the right direction. Braid's story is non-linear and coldn't be told in any other Media besides video games.
Do I want more games like Heavy Rain? Sure, why not. Do I want them to become too popular for their own good? No, I do not. |
While I understand your point and agree that it really is a step backwords as far as "videogames as art' are concerned. I disagree that the genre shouldn't get bigger if it's what the people want. Art and consumerism fit side by side in every other artistic medium quite well. Additionally there is always the off chance your wrong. Afterall I can only imagine what established painteres thought when impressionism broke onto the scene, or heck look how so many people treat the wii. |
We agree on something! See what a QTE can cause!

Actually i've yet to play it yet. Still haven't seen it on rental shelves... and I'm not a fan of buying games I don't think will have much replay value for me. After I beat the story a few times I don't see myself wanting to play it for the game mechanics. |
You missed the joke on the Q.T.E. 
Ah well, at least we agreed while it lasted. |
I imagine we agree on a lot.
