"First he announces that games are no longer for kids and teenagers" ... Like you. It's really sad when there has to be blood and sex for something to be enjoyable to you.

How shallow you must be....

no guns to shoot people with, no nut shots from across the map! There is more to gamming and it takes more for a game to succeed than a plasma rifle and some aliens or enemy faction.

Geez, grow up already. Didn't school start back up yet?

That is an image for the tech demo shown a while back. It has little or nothing to do with the game itself. The woman in the pic isnt even a character in the final game

The game is very similar to Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy) which was a very interesting game to play.

2.12 - your an idiot

the lady holding a gun was a tech demo for the game a few years ago. she has nothing to do with the game except on a technology front.

And the game is basically an interactive movie. Everygame doesnt have to be exactly the same to be fun, its about time that there is something different then the 80 billion FPS games out there.

I still have that game and run it on the PS3. Anyone that read the HellBlazer comics or saw the movie Constantine will understand this game. There is actually very little shooting in those comics/that movie. They were more focused on the choices we make and the consequences with which we have to live. Serious implications.

There are some that may not care for such gameplay but those are not the people attacking the game in this thread. They are either jealous 360 fans lamenting the cold hard truth about Too Human, crying over the reality that MS has now also given up on Europe, and the fact that a game that is not - shoot dumb guy here, me get club to bash - is quite beyond their feeble mental grasp.

Is a huge deal. I'm going to cross my fingers for these guys, 'cause if this game fails then so does the advancement of videogames as a mature form of entertainment.

I think, if it fails, the genre will cool off for a great while, but I think the audience is there. Older gamers (about 25+) still enjoying gaming and want some more mature. Like me.

Guys this has always been known havent you played any of there previous games? Play farenheit and tell me it is a bad game? You can't its a great game because it does something so different so well. I honestly thought everyone knew this already? Their games are very unique and I am dying to get my hands on it.

Farenheit was an excellent game, sadly the end was clearly rushed. But David Cage has already stated this will not happen with Heavy Rain as Sony were happy to give him all the time he needed. In fact he spent a whole year just penning the script.

To people asking what the gameplay is, play Fahrenheit or something. The gameplay IS the story, they aren't separate entity's.

This sounds brilliant, can't wait for the trailer.

Don't bother with him. He craves attention. I put that ass clown on ignore and just let it go. He is inconsequential.

Sony is moving on Europe. They have crushed MS underfoot like vermin. He can scream and raise the Gears flag but the fact is the game is 2 years old and it is showing it's lack of innovation. I say gears 2 is 2 years old because it is bringing nothing new to the table. Oh, more detail up close and lots of fog in the background. Whoopty doo. Chainsaw battles so I can get shot while having one? One extra player on a puny team of 5? Sorry turds but my 8 player R2 co-op has more than Gears to MP Team based play.

These pointy heads like pp are sweating bullets. Let them sweat. Sony has prepared a remarkable experience for gamers this year that only accelerates next year and the year after. Idiots like pp can go suck some fish heads.
