yeah I remember actually passing my copy of the game around to all my friends like I was on the freaking marketing team. The game was just so amazing I felt like I needed to pass that experience on to others and let them know about it.

Yeah truly. The game got mostly high review scores from the big sites and so far as sold about 800k copies. But I dont ever recall seeing any advertisements for it back in 2005. If it wasnt for the demo, I would have never known about the game.

Yeah but I guess that was just Atari for you. Let's all hope Sony does a better just marketing the game for QuanticDream.

Wishful thinking there. :P

I don't think this is the sort of game that benefits from big advertising campaigns anyway, how would you show it off?

Like Indigo Prophecy, word of mouth will probably work more in its favour, because I plan to pick it up day one and, if I like it, tell my friends to buy it (not lend to them, not rental, buy).

They could advertise it like it was a film. The trailers already have that feel.

I really liked it too (played it on the PC back in the day). Need to replay it, before Heavy Rain is released.

Yeah exactly. That experience QuanticDream makes is just unparalleled by any other. Heavy Rain will sure be a beast I mean that tech demo with the girl with the terrible lip syncing (lol) was just amazing. It wasnt even the real game nor will it make it to the final game and when I heard that I was like NOOOOO, that tech demo's story was just so gripping I wanted to play it so bad. THATS talent.

Fahrenheit was a wicked game, one of my favourites of the last generation.

Can't wait for Heavy Rain, it's gonna be amazing!

I'm kind of pissed that Heavy Rain is a PS3 exclusive. Indigo Prophecy was awesome.
