Feedback: Xbox 360 Eeks Out February Sales Win, Heavy Rain & Borderlands DLC, And Gears of War 3

San Francisco was nice and all, but it sure felt good to come back to sunny Los Angeles and our home studio. We had a great week up at the Game Developers Conference, but now it's time to get back to regularly scheduled programming. (That is, until next week's PAX East...) Adam, Patrick, Abbie and Sterling file into Studio B in an orderly...

David Cage Says Explaining Heavy Rain "Has Been My Nightmare For Two Years"

Heavy Rain is finally a reality. At this point, most of us have finished the game at least once and the different reactions -- both good and bad -- to the game certainly drove a number of my conversations at the Game Developers Conference last week. One point that came up several times, however, was the difficulty in explaining what exactly...

Heavy Rain DLC: First Screens

PlayStation 3 exclusive interactive-fiction/puzzle/adventure game Heavy Rain may be a complete story, but Heavy Rain's DLC will allow you to play extra chapters from the characters' lives, in case you didn't get in enough foreboding and/or brooding.

Heavy Rain Movie Rights Purchased

According to documents unearthed by Superannuation, movie production company New Line Cinema has purchased the film rights to Quantic Dreams' PlayStation 3 drama/game Heavy Rain. Apparently, there is dearth of scripts in which enraged fathers and the police try to stop a shifty serial killer before he claims another victim, so New Line snapped...

Sony: Heavy Rain Selling "Incredibly Well"

I was a little concerned about the sales of Heavy Rain. It's a great game, but I was worried people wouldn't buy it: It's a little bit tougher of a "sell" than a well-known sequel like, say, God of War III. A lot of the game involves being a single, depressed father trying to make sure your kid does his homework -- not traditional...

You guys are probably a few hours into Heavy Rain at this point, right? Some of you may have already finished the game (at least your first playthrough) in a marathon sprint.

Sessler's Soapbox: Heavy Rain is Ground Breaking

One game that a lot of people have been having heated discussions about around the office is the soon to be released PS3 game, Heavy Rain. Although, some people wouldn't even call it a game, it may be more appropriate to call it an "interactive narrative". In this week's Soapbox, Adam explains that while this game may not be your cup...

After nearly two years of teasers, previews, and fanfare, Heavy Rain is around the corner. Quantic Dream's long-awaited follow-up to 2005's cult classic Indigo Prophecy has been highly touted and hyped for some time.

Like all participants in the browser-based mystery tie-in game based on Quantic Dream's upcoming thriller Heavy Rain, I just received a rather pleasant surprise: access to the game's demo...a week early.
