So, when will we see proper gameplay, rather than just QTEs?

I preferred the tech demo with the woman being chased around the taxidermist's house... seemed much more atmospheric and scary. This looks like it's turned into a mystery/action game...

Fahrenheit was good but this could have been better. I'll wait for more footage and details before I pass judgement.

The use of the glasses reminds me of Deja Vu. Only no time-travel. And a white leading role. But other than that, yeah, I'd say Bruckheimer's got a valid lawsuit.

Ugh...I'd rather not have to press buttons at all if that is all the input the game needs from me.

Ooooh, I am so cool, i'll make some detached comment indicating how cool i am and why i won't be buying this game although it's probably really because i can't afford it.

Agree with Dragon's Lair comparisons. This just looks dated.
And what's Max Payne doing in it?

Cool, started Fahrenheit last night kinda spooky Shenmue vibe so far (great beginning). Say what you will about QTE sometimes they're fun. I'm playing shenmue again at the mo and it's loaded with QTE. Still one of the greatest games ever.

/ knock on door "are they out?"

/ winks at sailor to start fight

/ presses A,B,>,X to beat 'em

I'm starting to warm to this Heavy Rain.

Cant say I am a QTE fan, but at least this is fast paced, and its not all QTE from what i see... so though its not really the type of game I would go for, it does raise alittle interest.

I like the bit where you have to press Triangle. I love pressing Triangle.
