Perhaps MS agreed to fund it to get a 360 answer to heavy rain.

I thought that was WAKE? :P

I'm not really sure if those games are in the same genre. Sure, Alan Wake is marketed as a psychological thriller (Marketed on style, similar to Heavy Rain), but the gameplay footage with the evil harvester made it look more like a survival horror game than a (whatever genre games like Shenmue and HR are in). At least to me, it seems like a very different type of game than Heavy Rain.

  Shenmue on the other hand was known for mind-blowing visuals at the time and the games had QTE sequences just like Heavy Rain. Shenmue seems much more similar to Heavy Rain than Alan Wake to me, that's why I thought it might make sense for MS to get Shenmue 3 as an exclusive, to truly have a game in the same genre as Heavy Rain.



I LOVE ICELAND!
