It's not uncommon for today's blockbuster video games to hit development snafus, causing games to miss release windows and require additional resources (see: today's delay of BioShock 2), but that's not happening with Heavy Rain, said Quantic Dream co-CEO Guillaume de Fondaumiere in an interview with GamesIndustry.biz.
Fondaumiere said Heavy Rain is not only being delivered on schedule -- it's right on budget, too. Surprising news for one of PlayStation 3's games most hyped for visual realism.
"I think we prepared for a long time," explained Fondaumiere, "before we started production of Heavy Rain, and I think that back in 2005 when we were finishing Fahrenheit and starting to look at next-gen consoles in particular, we understood we could no longer produce games the old way, like in the old days. We understood we'd have to double the structure in our studio, that we'd have to rely on external resources to produce our next game. And for almost a year and a half we not only worked on technology in setting certain standards, and the quality bar on the development, but also on the organisation."
As Heavy Rain moves from in-development game to a tangible product Sony needs to begin marketing, here's a question: should they release a demo?

This and God of War III has about made me to decide to get a PS3. If only there would be a price break.

No doubt this game is going to be good. But will it be big Probably not unless Sony roll out the big guns and start marketing this game. I wont buy it unless there is a demo just to see how the controls is and if like the way the game play. If not I will rent it first than buy it later... But all and all this looks to me like a killer game.

As much as I am hyped for this game, I'm almost frustrated in a positive way because too many great exclusives coming out at once....hope I can keep up.....sigh..(happy dance?)

The PS3 has every kind of game imaginable, not just shooters.

A game that is trying something different yay

Yes, they should release a demo because we haven't seen much gameplay yet. The only way it will sell is if people feel the gameplay is great not only the visuals; because all i've seen so far is button sequencing. By the way isn't it organization and not organisation?

i think they need to release a demo simply because the control scheme may scare some people away without even trying the game. that said, i personally don't need a demo for this game. the story looks awesome, and i can't wait to get my hands on it.

Im not totally sold on this game yet either. Sure the visuals are awesome and the controls seem unique, but the game also seem like it might be kinda boring. I guess I can see how quickly I can kill off all of the characters, that could be fun.

I loved "Indigo Prophecy" so I'll definitely be picking this game up. My major concern with PS3 exclusives is the marketing and promotion. Sony needs to step up their game in this department in my opinion. I saw one commercial for "Killzone 2" and it aired two days prior to the release. However, the ad stated "In stores now" at the end, so fail there lol! I have yet to see a commercial for "inFAMOUS". Both are great games that people should play, but a lot of people never heard of them.
And, I think, for a game this unconventional, a demo should be mandatory.

I have and love my Playstation 3 and I like when PS3 get exclusives but so far i don't feel any way about Heavy Rain so if they would like for the game too sell well it's Sony best bet to release a Demo Cause great visuals is not the only reason i buy games. ex. i bought prototype
