Looks like Quantic Dream is about to break their silence about their upcoming PS3 game, Heavy Rain. Little is known about this title, although expectations are high from the team that brought us the wildly innovative PS2 adventure game, Fahrenheit (aka Indigo Prophecy). Two new images have surfaced from the upcoming game, and they look incredibly lifelike. It appears the team has come a long way since they last showcased some renders earlier this year.
Make sure you check out the high resolution images here to appreciate this breakthrough tech. We hope it won't be too long until we find out more about this elusive game.

Sorry Ms. Mouthbreather you weren't first, and your comment was full of tard. Go to joystiq or gamepro for that crap. We know nothing about the game except a cutscene -a great one at that.

Definitely a pretty looking game. Although, I'm probably more interested in knowing what the hell this game is all about.

From what I've seen thus far, my guess is a lot of crazy chicks crying in the rain.

a crying chick in the rain simulator? hmm...seems like more graphical demonstrations to me. although for cutscene graphics they do look pretty sweet. seems like what Silent Hill: Homecoming should have looked like.
but again, i'm tired of these ooo and ahh graphic demos, let's see some damn gameplay.

A couple more here: http://spilzonen.dk/x/list/screenshots/3877/platform,21/
Anyways: OMFG. If they're in-game this game blows all other console graphics outta the water. These even surpass Killzone 2.

I really liked Indigo Prophecy...it was engrossing and fun to play. Reminded me of Max Payne with a better story.

One thing still bothers me about this game.. the mouth expressions are awful in the trailer.. games have synced voices with mouth movement for years now.. couldn't they do that with this game?
Posted: Aug 6th 2008 8:12PM (Unverified) said
The audio sync was only off because of technical errors in putting it online. QD has stated that in an IGN interview, and has stated that the sync was perfect if you saw it running on the PS3 engine, like it was at E3.

The mouth movement still looked retarded, and if it was out of sync, then still it looked weird.. Anyway, like someone said, its all tech demo footage.

@JayVe I think your right we should all just stop playing high end games and go back to our SNES. I mean why in the world should we push the boundaries of graphics? We should all do like JayVe does and enjoy SNES and Gensis games. Maybe if we all get back on those systems they will start making more games like that again. JayVe is a genius!
Any opinions on color in movies? I totally think we should move back to black and white with no sound, what do you think?

Looking nice... but im in fear to say " wow..those graphics are amazing...the power of the ps3" and finding 8 months and some money, that its coming to xbox two because "profits"

This game is being funded and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. I'm sure SCEE owns the IP too, it's just like SCEA's relationship with Insomniac.

I remember hearing it was orginally multiplat but the 360 version was scrapped.

As a PS3 owner, I still find it quite ridiculous that your "wow..those graphics are amazing" comment can only be safely be made if you KNOW the game isn't coming to the 360. Goes to show how people's vision is completely clouded by the console wars.
Graphics aren't everything, and platform means nothing.

From the video i get the feeling that it will some sort of female shooting game. But it is 2 years old and i think the new screenshots are of the woman in casting as she looks now. Can't wait for more info on this lol.

If those are real in-game screenshots of what characters will look like then those blow away ANYTHING I've seen in a game thus far. I can't wait to hear more about this amazing exclusive.

Hyams is incorrect. SCEE did not buy Quantic Dream.

Yea, I'm not going to say this game looks good. Well I mean it LOOKS good (visually that is) but I can't tell if it SEEMS good or not because well...there's no idea of what the game is yet.
So let's stop hyping it for anything other than the graphics for now, ok?

While Quantic isnt owned by Sony, this game is being published by Sony.
Be kinda weird for an Xbox game to say "Developed by Quantic Dream. Published by SCEE."
Now THAT would be f***ed up.

the screens look really good, but the clip looks so artificial.
Posted: Aug 6th 2008 7:18PM (Unverified) said
Yeah the clip is the 2 year old tech demo that QD showed at E3 way back in 2006.

Every time I read that title, all I can think of is 'Chubby Rain', the fake movie from (the real movie) Bowfinger. "Gotcha Suckas!!!!"
Posted: Aug 6th 2008 8:14PM halebound00 said
lol, I thought I was the only one. Chubby Rain would've been like the best movie ever if it was real. Someone should do it and then make a game out of it.

People commenting about the video clip are silly. That clip is soooooooooooooooo old. Probably older than the Buzz! Cola sitting in my room from the Simpsons movie days.

Quantic sure has good faith in the PS3, even if Sony doesn't own it I doubt it'll come to 360.
It would be nice to have Heavy Rain on my 360 but that highly doubtful.
I'll just buy it for PS3.

The facial detail in these new shots looks even better than MGS4. If the game's as good as Indigo Prophecy and Omikron were, I'll definitely be getting it.
