Indigo Prophecy Gameplay Movie 6
Score distribution:

  1. A completely engrossing game, designed for the patience of adult players, that will stand up to an almost infinite number of sessions. It's a technically marvellous achievement by David Cage.
  2. Indigo Prophecy may very well be the best adventure game for the Xbox...not much more needs to be said than that.

    Easily a contender for game of the year and, potentially, the last great piece of original gaming left for current-gen Xbox owners to discover.
  4. The adventure genre (hell, the industry in general) should take notes. If your mind's open, let this one in.

    The game's sound, story, and characters are so strong, and the variety of situations players will find themselves in is so large, that at no point is this a boring play experience.

    It's almost shocking how seamless, engrossing and accessible Fahrenheit is. It's sad, then, that it shows weakness in the one area where it needed to be stronger than any other game: the script. [Oct 2005, p.84]
  7. There are certainly some good ideas here, but its attempts at cinematic effect undermine themselves through sheer repetition, while the story goes from creepy cool to Fox Kids' Club silly faster than you can say "WTF."

    This is one of the most engrossing and original games I've ever played. It feels like a big budget movie where you control most This is one of the most engrossing and original games I've ever played. It feels like a big budget movie where you control most everything that happens. The controls can be awkward at times, but that's my only real complaint. This is the most exciting game for me, in recent memory. Expand

    Este es uno de esos juegos que cuando lo descubres, recuerdas porque merece la pena disfrutar de un buen videojuego. Fahrenheit nos mete enEste es uno de esos juegos que cuando lo descubres, recuerdas porque merece la pena disfrutar de un buen videojuego. Fahrenheit nos mete en el papel de Lukas, un tipo normal que un día vio su vida truncada al descubrir que cometió un asesinato. Pero la cosa no queda ahí, ya que también tomaremos el papel de los que van tras su pista. En ese preciso instante te conviertes en el guionista interactivo de una super producción capaz de hacerte, reír, soñar, vibrar e incluso estremecerte. Puedo decir sin equivocarme que es el juego de su generación que mejor representa todas y cada una de sus emociones. Banda sonora impecable, ambientación brillante, y una jugabilidad que dista años luz de las clásicas aventuras gráficas vistas hasta ese momento. Desde esta breve reseña, doy las Gracias a todo el equipo que hizo posible este proyecto.

    GRACIAS!

    As close to the feel of an interactive movie as you'll get today. Forget the messy ending and the short length for a moment, and what As close to the feel of an interactive movie as you'll get today. Forget the messy ending and the short length for a moment, and what you have is a unique and sublime execution of a sci-fi thriller in an adventure game. The action sequences are very Matrix-like. The bonus movies are cool since you'll miss much of the details in these sequences because you're too busy trying to get past them. The voice acting is very, very good, while the music is excellent. There is a sense of "cutting edge" that I haven't felt playing an adventure game since, well, King's Quest on the IBM PCjr! This is a must rent at the least even if adventure games are not your cup of tea. Expand

All in all not a bad Rather innovative game, gets a little repetitive towards the end and the story really falls apart in the final third. All in all not a bad way to blow 7 hours on a game. Some replay value. Need to ratchet up the graphics though for the next installment. Expand

    This game starts off brilliantly - I mean, *brilliantly*. You have committed a murder and you have to decide what to do. You start out in This game starts off brilliantly - I mean, *brilliantly*. You have committed a murder and you have to decide what to do. You start out in control... but you soon lose that. It starts to over-rely on the two minigames it employs; button-hammering for "effort" activities and Dance mat style precision for "skill" activities. Fail in those games, and you have to try again; succeed, and all you really get is an extended cutscene. This game starts out as an exciting new experience, and ends up as an enjoyable movie. My disappointment was such that I am tempted to rate it lower, but in truth it doesn't deserve that. The real breath of fresh air in this game is that it doesn't give you time to explore all opportunities: it is an adventure game with a sense of pace, where you never feel you have tried everything because there are questions you could have asked but didn't.

    When I heard about this game it reminded me of the choose your own adventure books I used to read when I was younger ... imagine.. a gameWhen I heard about this game it reminded me of the choose your own adventure books I used to read when I was younger ... imagine.. a game where there are consequences for your every action. The idea was fascinating to say the least , the game was hardly that!!! The graphics were sub par and I kept waiting for them to get better but it stayed the same throughout, I liked the gameplay but after a while the tasks get so boring you stop caring about the storyline...The controls were ok but the camera is where it gets frustrating and everytime you have to think twice about the mechanics of a game you get farther and farther removed from immersing yourself into it...I can see why a lot of people might like it but it just wasnt my cup of tea....Rent it then decide for yourself.
