    Even though this is just re mastered Heavy Rain is a breath of fresh air into what games use to be story wise but also bringing a lot of new perspectives to it at the same time.

    If you have never played Heavy Rain and are looking at getting it, I would highly recommend it in everyway and I will tell you why. Heavy Rains story is so immersive and intriguing in the fact that your constantly wondering what your next choice will do to the story and the overall outcome at the end of the game, this game at some points will make you stop and think what the hell am I about to do, what do I decide to do, when this game first released on PS3 it was reported to have around like 10 different possible endings, how true that is I have no idea but I personally played through the game around 4 times and got a different outcome each time. the thing I loved most about this game is the use of the motion sensitive controller and the thing that is so nice is that you use it a lot but its not to the point that its overuse which is really nice. summary Heavy Rain is like playing the Zodiac killers version of SAW and is very much a psychological thriller in every sense of the way and makes you consider each choice wondering what the effect will be. I will give this game a 8/10 the only reason that it isn't more is the fact that this is a money grab more by Sony than anything else and that is disappointing but that will not change.    … Expand

    On the other hand the gameplay on its own is not spectacular. The controls are kind of clunky and unintuitive and it’s no real complexity in what you as a player are doing. It’s mostly controlling your character and deciding what they should do. But there is really no need for more in this case.

    This game had me invested in the story and the character throughout the whole game and I truly enjoyed the experience. Though the game was rather short. And the replayability of the game is not really there. So the overall entertainment value of the game is affected due to this.    … Expand

    Heavy rain is a great narration based game. It comes from the same studio as Detroit Become Human which aces narration driven gaming. There are lots of good things about Heavy rain and a couple of things that aren't great.

    The pros include the amazing music that is very soothing to listen to. Great narration based story that unfolds slowly, character emotions that are portrayed well.

    Unfortunately, Heavy rain leaves a couple of questions unanswered like how the narrator became so poor after being shown as coming from an affluent family initially, the plot holes that the other comments would have already covered also aren't explained.

    Overall, Despite it's flaws, Heavy Rain is a great game with flaws and bad controls. Definitely not a 10/10 but deserves a good rating for a great take on narration based gaming and the music.    … Expand

Some people have labeled it as an interactive movie, but it's really an adventure game at its heart.

    The game's story involves 4 playable, unrelated characters whose storylines gradually interweave and affect each other. The overall story arc is about finding a missing boy (the son of one of the protagonists) who has been kidnapped by an "Origami killer" (a maniac who leaves Origamis at his crime scenes) in a rain-soaked city. There are also some other mini-stories for each character with their own appeal.

    This is a game where choices have lasting effects, or may cause a character to die. You can even have all of the protagonists get killed, leading to a game over state. You can replay the game from the beginning and make different choices to see what different outcomes they yield.

    The graphics do an amazing job to service the game's atmosphere and ambition, and on PS4 they have been enhanced compared to the PS3 version. All characters have been mo-capped and look great, even though their voce acting isn't perfect. The music is OK.

    The game's big problem though is the awful gamepad controls. I don't mean laggy or imprecise controls. It's a weird system where you have to push the R2 trigger to move forward in the direction you are currently facing, instead of just using the analogue stick in a straight-forward manner (it reminds me of the tank controls in some old games such as Resident Evil and Grim Fandango). There are some QTEs, but also an abundance of button prompts where you have to push various buttons in the sequence they are shown while simultaneously keeping the previous buttons still pressed down in order to go forward or else you have to repeat it from the beginning. It's crazy stupid.

    Unfortunately there is no PS Move motion controller support on the PS4 version as far as I know. Motion controls made the game a far better experience on PS3 than playing with the gamepad.

    Heavy Rain is a great game on its own, an adventure game and something different from the Call of Duties and the GTAs of this world. Play the game and you 'll enjoy the powerful story.    … Expand

A gripping story with unexpected twists that keep you wondering how far you would go to save the ones you love till the end.

    This game is a piece of art. It could be up there with other masterpieces like Dark Souls III or Fallout 4 easily. It's a game of a kind. And with the low price it has now, it's a really good moment to grab it digitally. The voice acting could be a bit better though, that's why it doesn't get more than an 8 from me. The other point is the game is short. This needs a sequel.

The story is as engaging as always and the gameplay will be familiar to anybody who plays Telltales games or even Dontnod's more recent Life is Strange series. You will affect how the story progresses through your dialogue choices and how you interact (or not) with the things in your environment. You play as 4 different characters throughout the story each with their own agendas and demons to bare. Scott Shelby is the standout character for me personally as he is more likable and easier to root for as the scrappy overweight PI.

    On the negative side, on the rare occasion that a pre-rendered cutscene is used the encoding is akin to early DVD quality with visible Macroblocking, also they do suffer a little screen tear but nothing enough to ruin the experience.

    Aside from that rare occurrence the whole experience is highly recommended for fans who want to relive it again or for those who never got to play it the first time (I envy you that).

While certain things involving the game's age and playability are taken into account here, a lot of this rating is based largely around the port itself.*
    "Heavy Rain" was a game that I felt I was in the minority with when I gave the original PlayStation 3 game a 10 out of 10. Yes, I acknowledge that there were some plot-holes here, but I still found the story and characters captivating enough that I could forgive those, especially because those holes actually opened up for discussions and questions long after I completed the game. It was a game that kept me coming back for several playthroughs, and it hooked me like few others have. While I wasn't initially planning on getting the PlayStation 4 port of it, it was part of the Digital Deluxe Edition of "Detroit: Become Human" (which, yes, I will play and review as soon as possible), which was only $10 more than the standard edition, so I got to replay "Heavy Rain," and I was impressed that it held up so well.
    "Heavy Rain" remains a game that is very enjoyable, and even if a lot of the game is scripted cinematics and quick-time events, it still remains very exciting and tensing. Once again, even though the story has some holes, the characters and the writing are still captivating and rich (even if some of the performances are kind of cheesy by today's standards), and I feel like there's a certain novelty to the game now. Given that it was released in early 2010, right when the new wave of story-driven, "realistically-designed" games were starting to pop off, it's cool to see one of the games that helped start it off (obviously, before the days of "The Walking Dead"). And for the most part, the visuals still remain quite strong today, as the 1080p facelift brings out the overall beauty of the game.
    It's easy for me to forgive the occasionally off-putting model or very minor frame-dipping in this one because they don't really impact the enjoyment of the game, but there's one thing I can't really forgive: even though "Beyond: Two Souls" (Quantic Dream's next game) received a PlayStation 4 port with plenty of new stuff (like the ability to play the game in chronological order), I was disappointed that "Heavy Rain" on PlayStation 4 offers nothing new other than the satisfaction of getting to re-experience the game. I would've liked to see this version of the game come with some playable versions of some of the things that were left on the cutting room floor (such as Ethan's blackouts) in something of a "Director's Cut" version, or it could've featured some of the cut DLC episodes that were supposed to release after "The Taxidermist." Speaking of that DLC, I also would've liked it if the game actually came with "The Taxidermist" DLC, much like how "Beyond: Two Souls" came with the "Enhanced Experiments" DLC. The lack of new features, or even added DLC, makes it seem like there was more care put into RELEASING the port, and not ENHANCING the port outside of the 1080p visuals.
    Still, while the lack of new features is disappointing, "Heavy Rain" remains what I like to call a "flawed masterpiece," and it's a game that I highly suggest playing. Obviously, if you own it on PS3 already, there's not much of a point in getting this version, but if you haven't gotten to experience "Heavy Rain" yet, give it a shot now that it's on the PlayStation 4!

    As far as Heavy Rain goes for me in way of storytelling, it hasn't been topped since.

It's a gritty detective thriller as you play several characters at once who intertwine with the goal of finding the Origami killer. The choices system is different from other games, it poses drastic moral reactions and consequences which could actually end up in a character dying outright. They don't get revived either which causes your ending to change subsequently. The script is well done and as the story gets darker and darker you wonder if you're ever going to see the ending, or one of the 24 possible ones! This proves plenty of room for replay value which is unusual for narrative games. My only critiscism of a game like this is that the use of the motion sensor of the pad is sometimes utterly tedious, like changing a baby's nappy, or cleaning your characters teeth, or pushing a kid on a swing. It's showing off the possibilities but becomes boring and pointless to the story. Aside from this, this game is something of a masterpiece which shouldn't ever be drowned out by sequels.… Expand

    Heavy Rain, a game purged with narrative to give you a gripping story and relatable characters. Though this game offers good storytelling it does approach some simplistic functionality in game play which for me feels bare and minimal considering what we have had in the past decade with games and storytelling.

    On a positive start this game is rather good with telling you a story, the    Heavy Rain, a game purged with narrative to give you a gripping story and relatable characters. Though this game offers good storytelling it does approach some simplistic functionality in game play which for me feels bare and minimal considering what we have had in the past decade with games and storytelling.

    On a positive start this game is rather good with telling you a story, the many options for dialogue and progressive behaviors of the characters to one another allows for full immersive reality. Aspects like do you kill this guy or intervene with this gives players not only choice but the idea that there is more to the actions than here and now.

    Characters in this game are not made to be unrealistic either and make you feel sympathy and honest hurt when something gripping happens. Each of the 4 main protagonists having different backgrounds allows for different takes on the game play depending on what the player feels is best or what they just happen to feel towards a specific character.

    Now I've given it some positive points for it to gloat about but with all good things there is that outlying bad point or in this case points. The first is the quick time events, I get it that this game is solely narrative based and game play is more an after thought, but having players mash a few buttons, twiddle the analog stick a few times and then shout at the TV for a bit because you've done the same part 5 times is not exactly gonna shout hey come play our game with button mashing controls and free rage.

    That also brings me to the second point, bad controls. During some quick time events you have to shake the controller up or down or left to right, seems fine right, the problem is half the time it doesn't work. For example, oh no you gonna crash the car move the controller to the right, you move controller to the right, are you doing it asks the theoretical game voice, Yes you shout as you beak every ligament in your hand, and after all is said and done it still hasn't done it..

    Sticking with controls, by god what is with the walking controls, hold this button move this stick, and the animation for it is not exactly smooth either, often having you walk around the wrong way and then go oh you want to go this way and walk back again.

    The final point is the graphics, I get that it's a port from PS3 and I get that back then they were standard, but you could have altered a few textures and upgraded the graphics a little to fit with the common expectations, but to me that wasn't too major.

    All in all this game is great, yes it has a bit of a loose control scheme and yes the graphics are dated, but the game is and always will be brilliant at not only telling a story but telling one where your actions have consequences    … Expand

    I'm glad I went back and gave this a try after getting it for Free on PS+. The story and characters were engaging and kept me wanting to come back despite the horrible controls. Thankfully - Heavy Rain doesnt rely on controls too much outside of QTEs or it would have been a deal breaker. Enjoyable from start to finish - great twist ending. Would recommend to anyone for a change of pace.

    Heavy Rain is a simulation of one of the most difficult jobs there is: being a single father... whose son won't do his homework.

    (There's also something about a serial killer but that seems like a secondary plot somewhat clumsily tacked on to the main game.)

    What I got was so much more - I did not just experience the movie, I lived the movie.
    Apart from fulfilling the typical requirements for such a feat (good acting, atmosphere, effects, graphics, etc), the powerful sense of consequences to each and every action I performed was like nothing I had ever experienced before. I think that being forearmed with the knowledge that four characters are playable, but can die at any moment as a direct result of my actions was key.
    You see, I read the various items of information provided by the game before playing.

    I am blown away at how this game manages to achieve such an experience without VR, but through very clever use of the controller.
    The reactive threshold, whereby certain buttons must be pressed within a certain time limit, felt just right, and I liked how failing did not necessarily result in immediate death, but would draw out a different cut scene and give me a stronger sense of deaths imminence if I continued to mess up.

    I am a very experienced gamer (35 years old now), having played games from way back like Space Invaders on the Amstrad through to games on consoles like Sonic on the Sega Master System, through to games like Affected on the Oculus Rift.
    Never before have I fought enemies like my very life was on the line.
    Never before have I felt such a sense of relief when finally overpowering an enemy.
    Never before have I uttered audible sounds/expletives, even though no-one else is with me.
    Never before have I experienced a character death and accepted it as part of the story line without reloading.
    Never before have I looked at the concept art after completing the game (unlocked during playing) and felt like it was stimulating memories of experiences in my own life.

    You have to play this game with the right expectations - it is not a gun-toting, car drifting, all action genre, yet the emotions it invokes far surpasses those invoked from such genres.
    Quite frankly, this game is a work of art and the people involved in making it should be very proud of its accomplishment.    … Expand

    Las decisiones que tomas son muy importables porque pueden llevar a la muerte de tus personajes, el juego no tiene un único final.

    Teniendo en cuenta el año de lanzamiento del titulo tiene unos gráficos muy buenos para la época.

    La jugabilidad, es muy buena pero si que es verdad que hay veces que no detecta correctamente el movimiento del mando y da errores o como pulsar el R2 para poder andar, puede llegar a ser molesto pero te acabas acostumbrando...

    En cuanto a la historia me ha parecido impresionante, impresionante como se ha ido desarrollando y al acabar el videojuego me he quedado boquiabierto por el final del mismo. Todos los personajes aportan algo a la historia sean jugables o no (especialmente los jugables).

Each character can die if you mess up too much, or if you mess up too much you get extra chapters following up on what happened.

    Loved this studio from the beginning (Fahrenheit), and this game is a amazing piece of story telling. Was really enjoying my 5 playthroughs.

    Absolute masterpiece! The story is so thrilling, I couldn't get my eyes away from it. The detective work is one the best in gaming industry. And some choices are so hard to make, I was sitting half an hour, thinking about my next step.

    Шикарное кино, можно и спустя 10 лет играть и получать огромное удовольствие, правда сам процесс ходьбы и тд уже кривоват, но это мелочи. Главное тут - сюжет и персонажи, а они -шикарны. Каждая история - очень продуманная и глубокая, и все вместе образует единое целое. Отдельный бал за атмосферу, она тут очень тягучая и обволакивающая .Шикарное кино, можно и спустя 10 лет играть и получать огромное удовольствие, правда сам процесс ходьбы и тд уже кривоват, но это мелочи.

    Heavy Rain is one of those games that was simply ahead of its time and wasn't fully appreciated by many people.
    I'm into this story-based game and Heavy Rain delivers big time. An awesome psychological thriller to say the least.

    This remaster retains and showcases Heavy Rain’s best assets (we’re so sorry). Some wobbles, however, have also made the jump to PS4. [June 2016, p76]

    As remasters go, it's not a total washout - but it's not the stunning revamp it could have been. As a PS3 classic now available on PS4, however? Essential. [May 2016, p.87]

    It doesn’t offer anything new for anyone who already played the original. On the other hand, the graphics are significantly overhauled, making this remastered version a safe choice for anyone who didn’t had the chance to experience this excellent interactive drama.
