-Heavy Rain

Description: "Heavy Rain" is a dark, immersive and emotionally-engaging experience; one that expands upon the innovative ideas of 2005’s acclaimed Fahrenheit to create a noir-thriller where decisions are charged with importance and actions can have drastic and unforseen consequences. Breaking with traditional game conventions where necessary, the gameplay will be based around story, emotional involvement and the player’s decisions and interactions, rather than high-scores, combat and competition. Intuitive gameplay and controls are also fundamental to the experience – ensuring that the game is mature but accessible, and avoiding alienating players with obscure stats and complex interfaces.

In Heavy Rain you don’t watch the story – you play it. The dynamic narrative unfolds through the players actions - not cut scenes - and every action has a consequence. The choices you make and the way you interact with other characters have repercussions throughout the storyline. With unprecedented responsibility over the fates of the game’s characters, players will find Heavy Rain an emotional experience unlike any other. It dares to tackle subject matter and themes rarely touched upon in video games, making it a genuinely mature game for a new world of adult gamers.

Basically, if you're a 360 owner you'll say Alan Wake and vice versa.

Heavy Rain looks interesting but I don't know enough about Alan Wake to say it's better.



From what ive seen... Heavy Rain.

Both.
Both studios have a good track record, and I'm sure neither of these game will turn out to be a "haze" or "lair"

Alan Wake I might buy.....Heavy Rain I will not buy....So far none of them impress me......



 



I'm not much of a fan of quick time events and I can't imagine having fun with a game that is full of them so my vote goes to Alan Wake.

I loved the old Heavy Rain footage, the new one not so much. It's like it took a dive in quality or something.

Alan wake looks intense but will wait for reviews until I buy it.
