I swear the day HL3 is gonna be announced the internet is gonna implode.

An inter-dimensional portal will open in each computer screen on the planet, sucking anything close to it.

I'll be at a Christmas party, and the host is tech illiterate, so I'm safe.

-Heavy Rain
-Game

Pick one.
The execution concept behind Heavy Rain is that of a reworking a classic P&C adventure, with modern technology. Sure, more game elements could be added in terms of puzzles, but to suggest that the concept is void of being a game, is as wrong as it would be to say that something like Monkey Island is not a game.

Haven't you heard? It's cool to hate Heavy Rain!

I enjoyed playing Heavy Rain through once. Its style of gameplay is still near the bottom of the list of ways I would like designers to explore ambitious video game narrative.

I totally agree. I've tried to do a second run through the game, months after the first one, and I couldn't get past the first two hours.
It was an enjoyable experience. Once.

HR was far from perfect but there is no other GAME like it out there on current gen systems.
If you want your brainless shooter, go play Gears.

the objective most likely be more clear and simple like trying to find cure or something, although it will probably have some mind control scenario like you seeing hallucination to certain direction, which is the fungus way trying to control your action.

Or you, the player, will be the fungus itself, guiding the hero towards the goal. Which is also the ending of the game. Basically reinforcing the whole "you have lost control over yourself".

it'd be nice if the game have branching paths making you think you're choosing your own fate and action, but in the end, no matter what choices you make, you end up doing what the fungi want anyway.

From what I get, this fungus infection happens in nature so that one species doesn't get the upper hand over the others (so that there is not too many of them), so nature keeps the balance of things. amazing.
Now if we take into consideration what is happening in present day and problem with over population, in 50 years to almost double 12+ billion. So maybe nature develops similar brain fungus for humans since there is too many of us? and in the game you have to survive this chaos that is occurring around you?

What do you think of this ?

very ignorant thing to say. But I guess you played every single game out there, so you are qualified to speak on the subject.

Obviously i'm not talking about the whole gen, only about the games i had played. And it's my opinion, you dont have to share it :)

@geoffkeighley Why does official site of lastofus show this date 12.7.2011? New info on 7th?

@TooPawned I would check the site on 12.7
 
Just noticed the date at lastofus.com site is the 70th Anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attacks. Makes the attack on the U.S. theory even more plausible, I think.

There is a new background image on the psblog

Some say it looks like the images from kojima's fox engine. Reminds me of early Last Guardian images where it showed some foliage and a large chain.

So foliage and trees = exclusive to Kojima game.

Remember this is about fungus, ant shit, nature.

In Aus it is.

It will be in Europe CET in about 40 minutes. When it was first relvealed i think it was about 2 in the morning over here. I woke up and checked my PC for a few minutes and then noticed thread and all the hype on twitter, stayed up like a nerd for next hour reading shit instead of sleeping knowing that I had to go to work in 2 hours.
