@Kowenick

if sony market this, it will have its own market like GT.
most people buy Playstations just for GT, and they aren't gamers, this can move software because its different and if sony market it and aim at the right people, (Movie fanatics) it will be a system seller.



It looks like it could be an amazing game, but I think he's stretching it just abit....

If it's as good as shenmue, it might sell me a PS3



I LOVE ICELAND!

Games like Heavy Rain are a big reason I bought the PS3. I vastly prefer artistic single player games over action-heavy multiplayer oriented games. Heavy Rain, MGS4, Heavenly Sword, Uncharted, Valkyria Chronicles, flower, God of War 3, and The Last Guardian are exactly the types of games that have and will make my PS3 purchase worthwhile.

So yeah, I can totally understand it being a small system seller.

Why is everybody saying this game is going to flop?
I bet it sells more than the 360 version of FFXIII.

They do it to every single PS3 exclusive.



Personally, I predict that Heavy Rain will sell over 1 million if it has a metacritic of 85 or higher, simply because there are enough people that are interested, and if they know the game's good they will feel more confident about a purchase. Quantic Dream NEEDS to make Heavy Rain a great game, because if they don't, I wouldn't be surprised if it kills them financially. If they nail the mechanics, then Heavy Rain will perform well.

I'm sure that a lot of people are interested but are taking the "will wait for reviews" approach before buying it.

Really?



N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!!!

Heavy Rain is no console seller. games like uncharted 2 and GoW3 are console
sellers not Heavy Rain .. plus this game has way to many QTE's and the gfx where
downgraded. this game is not on par with the other PS3 only games,



VITA 32 GIG CARD.250 GIG SLIM & 160 GIG PHAT PS3

I'm gonna lie, Heavy Rain looks fantastic but the whole system seller thing...uh....eh...I just can't see it
