Heavy Rain

[Kenzomatic]

Well I would love to do a review but I only have time lately to rant about a few things.

Anyways I beat the game it was pretty good.

1 - Mass Effect has an infinitely better lip sink then heavy rain. Seriously sometimes it gets really bad, which wouldn't bother me nearly as much if the company hadn't bosted about the realism.

2 - The controls suck always why? why? why couldn't they stay away from the original Resident Evil sceme?

3 - The idea of chosing everything doesn't bother me, the implantation sucks though. Why the hell would I not know where the dishes are in my own house. Seriously if you want to present the environment as familiar to the character then don't make the gamer do a search and find. It makes no sense, does the character have amnesia. Let me just select get dishes from a menu instead of hide and seek.

4 - Label shit. it is really hard to figure out sometimes what the button hovering over something does especially when there is two on top of each other. just add text next to it why is there no text? Sometimes the ideas work and others they don't.

5 - The story was good even if it was physically impossible and a little gimicky. Still if you allow yourself to get into it the story it is fun and keeps you guessing.

This game is a niche game and could have been done a million times better. All the people who gave this a 9 are crazy. It is a 9 against its self and 6 against future games that will implement a control scheme and flow that is smother and less cumbersome. The story is pretty good for Video Game standards and maybe top of the class, unfortunately I found it required more unfun work the was needed.
