It's from the same people that made indigo prophecy, it looks like an upgraded indigo prophecy, and indigo prophecy was on PC. So...yeah, there's nothing that would say that this game could only work on a console.

btw indigo prophecy was frikkin awesome.



You can find me on facebook as Markus Van Rijn, if you friend me just mention you're from VGchartz and who you are here.

I will stick 2 my controler for this game thanks. This is not a FPS. Controlers are much better then mouce keyboard for this quick timde event game



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

Killzone 2. its not a fps. it a FIRST PERSON WAR SIMULATOR!!!! ..The true PLAYSTATION 3 launch date and market dominations is SEP 1st

Sony does have that FragFX mouse + controller thingy and the new wireless MOBI mouse + controller. And are compatible with all Blue Tooth keyboards, mouse, headsets and mics.

Im looking to get ahold of the MOBI controller, seems nice.

As for Heavy Rain, i do agree it could be a fine point and click game, but as for a console game it looks quite "boring". Just spam some buttons and watch as the story unfolds. It might be exactly what the producers are going for, to give the consumer more of an interactive movie experience. But i want to be in more control than that in a game.

I think logic is the main gameplay. I didn't really see a lot in the FBI scene, but in the Taxadermist walkthrough there was a lot of choices you could make and strategies to utilize.

I think Sony should make at least all games published by them support KB + M, DualShock, and Wand.

Out of curiosity - did you ever play any of the SCUMM (Lucasarts) games?  If so, did you find them boring?  Just wondering if your issue is with the game or the genre. 

@ Staude:  I know that mouse keyboard support is there, but having support and using support are not the same.  I would like to give it a try is all I am saying.

As for the mice are for PC posts, that's fine, it's your opinion.  I would love for the old school point and click style adventures to return, and if it has to be on consoles, so be it.



I didn't even know Heavy Rain had a genre, the most I would aliken to (from what little I know) is a point and click sort of game along with horror game influences.

I never played SCUMM, is it old? Can I run it on my PC? I'm only 18 and got into video games recently.



I don't think I'd have as much fun with a mouse...

Ive only seen the scene where you question some big ass black guy who turns out to be quite hostile. Besides the part where he put on his x-ray super goggles and found every piece of evidence in the warehouse, and you followed his thoughts on the evidence by clicking on the words around his head etc. Besides that, all they did for 15 min was to dubble tap square, circle, tirangle and cross and shake the controller in order for the animation to play on.

And that part made me feel like this game isnt for me. Its probably a great story and well executed, but i need more than an advanced CSI game to satisfy my gaming needs.
