I loved Cages previous two games, and I look forward to his new games... I have to wonder though if he'd be able to break his mold and create something more unique and different. As much as I loved 'Heavy Rain', I must say it played very much like a more refined version of 'Indigo Prophecy'. Having said that, you know the old saying - "if it ain't broke..."

That is extremely fuzzy reasoning - after all, Move-based Kart games could offer 'huge potential returns', Move-based erotic games with the dildo-waggle control could offer the very same.

Sounds like Sony just wanted to make a headline with specious semantics... ('hook, line and sinker' springs to mind... sorry guys)

Can only be a good thing I think. Heavy Rain was a rather brief outing for me though. Played through once and a half. The illusion was gone, but it was good while it lasted.

I'm also pleased to hear that they are moving away from any Heavy Rain continuity. Depending on exactly what that entails, I'm interested to see if they could create a more fluid environment. Movement became a bit bothersome after a while.

Heavy Rain definitely set an interesting precedent in the modern QTE movie genre. Definitely worth keeping an eye on.

I really enjoyed Heavy Rain, and I didn't think it would be my cupa tea. Great characters and atmosphere - obviously much better the first time round and I destroyed it a bit for myself going for the Plat as I was sick of it by the end, but I would certainly welcome more of this types of game!
