Sony confirms Move support for Heavy Rain

Sony has confirmed to Belgian games magazine Chief that Heavy Rain will work with PlayStation Move.

The magazine shows a number of games that will work with PlayStation Move. One of those games is Heavy Rain.

Heavy Rain was released last month exclusively for PlayStation 3. The game plays like an interactive movie, a thriller with dark film-noir influences. Players follow the lives of four different characters.

The new issue of Chief is available in Dutch and Belgian newsstands starting this Tuesday.

It can easily support older games with a simple update. This is what Move is all about. Supporting the player and making the gamers happy.

And Cliff Blizinski, there you have it...

yeah mate, i didnt see those disagrees on the first few comments praising NATAL in them musta missed something ¬_¬

anyhow move is already proving how versatile it can be in terms of game types...ultimately the proof of fun is in the eating so only time will tell

TheTwelve5148d ago

Awesome. Now if only I hadn't beaten the game to death trying to get all the trophies. Ah well, I'll go through it again. =)

"Fun is in the eating" - The Wood

That's what she said. :D

Blaze9295148d ago

cool I guess for people who haven't played it yet or got majority/all the trophies. I played it to death already already sold the game. Too bad

(on account of the massive February/ March release schedule - wtf was that all about? :P), I may just wait till Move comes out then.

lh_swe5148d ago

Because I don't think they could do anything else but put you physically in the game to make you more immersed, I feel bad you have to wait though, I know that wait would kill me.

Qui-Gon Jim5148d ago

...play through it once now to get the story (and to reduce the chances of the story getting spoiled for you), then play it for the other endings once Move support happens. I have almost got my platinum on this game, and I'll say that all the different possibilities for the ending will have you wanting to play through the game several times.

sikbeta5148d ago

That's Great and the Prove of How Move will Work with every kind of Games...

Rowsdower5148d ago

I hope both MOVE and NATAL succeed.

Rowsdower5148d ago

Heavy Rain incorporating motion controls?
Hoping Move is successful?
Hoping Natal is successful?

just curious?

lh_swe5148d ago

I hope both support a huge arsenal of games and bring more peopel to each respective console and away from the Wii (nothing against it just think it's not pulling it's weight in comparison with the other two).

And to anyone who want's either respective motion tech to fail; You are a sour little fanboy who couldn't stand having some of the limelight stolen from your favourite console, isn't that it? I dare you to prove me wrong.

feelintheflow5148d ago

Do you really have to ask that question, just mention Natal in a good or positive way and you will get your bubbles stolen and disagrees.

Please stop comparing video games to movies

"Many video games catch not only great commercial attention but remarkable critical attention as well. We have seen games like Heavy Rain, The Last of Us Part II, and even entries in the Metal Gear series described as fantastic interactive experiences, even heralded in the same way as Hollywood's greatest films.

I would suggest that not only is this an unfair comparison but also a harmful one. Video games, by their very nature, are an intricately different medium and should be weighed against one another rather than another form of media," Phillip writes for GF365.

Yes, please stop. They're better than most hollywood drivel nowadays.

BLAKHOODe1261d ago

I think Hollywood films will becoming increasingly more like video games in the future, especially as the world embraces the "new normal" from the pandemic. It makes sense, as games like Spider-Man: Miles Morales showcase just how realistically we're reaching in graphical capabilities, as well as showcase extreme action sequences in spectacular ways. And as time goes by, it'll get easier and cheaper to produce such "art", as well as create new star "actors" that never age, never die, never complain, never gets involved in scandals, etc. Technology is amazing and we're only just getting a taste of what it'll eventually be.

sourOG1261d ago

No. Some games are like movies.

medman1260d ago (Edited 1260d ago )

No. For the money spent, a quality game provides far more entertainment value than a quality movie. Especially when looking at what is going on in the world, and how a studio can attempt to pilfer from consumers by charging 30 dollars for Mulan via streaming. Ridiculous. There is no comparison....games all day.

Have you played Detroit? While it’s my personal favorite, I fully understand many preferring Heavy Rain more. I’m glad you enjoyed Heavy Rain too.

bouzebbal1418d ago

def. one of my top 3 best experiences on PS3

ClayRules20121418d ago

bouzebbal

That’s awesome to hear! What’re the other 2 best experiences?

akaFullMetal1418d ago

Great game, need to get started on Detroit soon.

ClayRules20121418d ago

Glad you enjoyed the game! Yes, Detroit is a masterpiece of a game, and their best work to date “in my opinion”

ClayRules20121418d ago

Wow, 10 years...and yet, still one of the best/most emotional/thrilling gaming experiences I’ve ever had.

So grateful to Sony for believing in Quantic Dream’s vision for this game, and giving them a chance. I’ll never forget David Cage saying “We want to challenge the player, but not with the controller, but mentally, with their decisions of “How far would you go to save someone you love” Well, they broke my emotional gamer heart lol.

My teenage son refuses to play this game, because I’ve told him in little detail the emotional impact it had on me all those years ago. Maybe one day he will.

Z5011418d ago

Still have my origami crane they teach you how to make when you're installing for the first time.

C-H-E-F1417d ago

it's been 10 years? wow, that was so fast, I feel like this console gen went fast as well although it hasn't. I really look forward to the PS5 this holiday season though.
