Heavy Rain Nude Shower Scene Also Leaked

[Shamanic Rhythm]

Okay, if that's an accurate depiction of what this game has to offer, then I don't see it lighting the world on fire.

My big problem with quicktime events is that they essentially just test reflexes without allowing for any logical input from the player; essentially making the whole thing a massive trial and error. If you get something wrong in this sequence and you're forced to do it again, you're going to get bored. You won't be getting immersed because you'll have to focus so carefully for the prompts. What the game needs to do - and I appreciate that it may be doing this but it's not obvious from the leaked video - is to associate certain actions with certain buttons and give the player enough stimulus so that they will anticipate what button they're going to be told to press. So that in a sequence like the one we're shown, if the player is made to associate the right hand with say the X button, and sees a nearby bottle at hand then it should become a natural instinct for them to grab it; actually making them feel immersed in the gameplay and making them react to their environment rather than just sitting through a movie that forces you to go back to the start of the chapter if you don't press the right buttons on the remote every five seconds.

And all the stuff in the bathroom? That's just gratuitous. Why does she need to take a shower and go to the toilet? If it's to set the atmosphere that could have been better established by an uninterrupted cutscene. Every time the game pauses to wait for the player to catch up and press the buttons; I lose immersion. Quicktime events are pointless if you have no urge to complete them quickly. Forcing the player to push a button just to make this girl do everything does not create immersion, it just delays the inevitable.

This is Fahrenheit.
Seriously, they had a scene just like that in Fahrenheit, with nudity and all.
I hope this will be just as good.

They use the exact same "Nah"'s "Bah"'s and "Tcha"'s so much it sounds like a 3 second porn video being looped.

I agree, it also looked like "quick time events" the game.

But the "quasi" realistic quality about it besides the animation is very intriguing.

My biggest problem with this game remains to be the same thing I had with Fahrenheit. I am intrigued, I want to see what happens, but I don't want to play it. I'd rather put the controller down, and just watch.

Maybe I could make one of my PS3 owning friends buy it, and then go to his place and watch it. I'd also get a few smugness points off explaining what Uncanny Valley means.

Wow... that has to be the most retarded chase scene ever. They use the exact same "Nah"'s "Bah"'s and "Tcha"'s so much it sounds like a 3 second porn video being looped.

That annoyed me at first too, but I think it's because of the poor french dubbing. Dubs are rarely very good, and I'd imagine that game dubs are even worse.

Only a shower and toilet scene? Fahrenheit had full out interactive sex. What a step back.

The video kinda makes it seem like the game is just a movie with terrible pacing.

Congratulations, Mr Cage. You've included urination into a video game - something absolutely nobody wants to see or hear while playing. Screw good graphics, Heavy Rain is turning into a laughing stock for me before it even hits shelves.

Yeah I have to agree here!

Visually it's absolutely stunning but that always gives me the red blinking warning light at the back of my head that the time has been split up 95% making it purty and 5% decent gameplay. My fella has a PS3, so I'll see if I can make him buy it to see for myself.

Now we know why its called 'Heavy Rain'.

 

[Zing]

Wow, I'm still a bit stunned this beat Australia's nazi-censor. Good news, I won't watch it cause I don't want to spoil it, and I'm not really in a hurry to see Paige taking a piss...

The sniper from TF2 would like a word with you.

So do the guards from MGS and Travis Tochdown.

Are you just scared that its a girl? Its okay I didn't know they peed out of their not-dicks too

Sure, that must be it. Thank you for pointing out my issues, doctor, your fee will be wired to your account later today.

You missed the point, youngin. I don't give a damn about the urinating process being realistically portrayed, my beef is with the fact that it actually had to be included in a game. For Christ's sake, when I play a game I want to see all kinds of things, preferably something not common or possible in everyday life, but not this - if I desperately wanted to see women urinate I'd type 'golden shower' into google, not buy and play a video game.

All I read was "Heavy Rain Leaked"

That was all I needed.

Well this one scene can't ruin the game for you
'Oh no she peed this game crossed the line I can't get the scene out of my head ahhhhh'. You may not like it but perhaps when we play the game the tone would be more serious so it is called for.

What is this Uncanny Valley?

I'm probably going to get blasted for this, but here goes...i actually enjoyed Fahrenheit. Even when it got all Matrix and Incan prophets began to fly through the sky, and the story began to get loopy...i enjoyed it.

I'm happy they've cleaned up the interface. So its basically a giant quick-time event game...so what. i'm gonna play it for the story, not the gameplay.

Who cares if you like the game or not? People have different tastes. Do you find the Sims boring as well? You live in a democracy - if you dont like the sound of the game, then dont play/buy it, and if you dont have anything constructive to say, then perhaps you shouldnt be in this forum.

For the record, I am going to play it, if only as a rental, since I don't like being left out of the loop.
However, you seem to have missed my point again. Believe it or not, I've actually had a girlfriend or two in my life and I managed to accidentally walk in on one of them in the bathroom; why would I be unnerved by a bodily function, a simple biological process common to all of humanity? I am not unnerved by the depiction of a woman urinating, I am miffed about the fact that they had to include this in a game. When I play a game, especially one that's being heralded as the greatest thing since the invention of fast food, I want to experience fantastic and uncommon things, and seeing someone take a piss (regardless of gender) is about as common and mundane as it gets; I could just as easily put up a mirror on my bathroom door and recreate the same scenario with better graphics.
Furthermore, this is by far not the first and only thing to set me off Heavy Rain. There's nothing wrong with being proud of a game you and your team have put a lot of work into, but the level of pretentiousness David Cage exhibits is, for lack of a better word, infuriating. Seriously, have you seen the guy talk about the game? Have you read his statements? I get the feeling this man fancies himself some kind of modern god, and the more bullshit he spouts the less attractive the prospect of playing his game becomes for me.

Blasted?
Hell, it's my #2 favorite game of all-fucking-time, and I'm doing allright.
There's nothing wrong with liking Fahrenheit, in my personal opinion, it was a work of art.

 

[Sixties Spidey]

Well all we need now is a bunch of 12 year olds with a chronic need to jack off and the game will sell bajillions.
