New Heavy Rain images bring back the " Wow ! "

Cruxis Mana | August 06, 2008 | Screenshots | Playstation 3

Heavy Rain has amazed you once before and it's about to do it all over again with this new batch of screenshots. These new ones boast new character models and environments that have never been seen before.

The upcoming PlayStation 3 game Heavy Rain from acclaimed Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy and Omikron developers Quantic Dream, has been hidden from public eyes since 2006’s concept video. Since then we’ve only had glimpses of impressive facial close ups, but now we can bring you a little bit more…

…A zoomed out view of what looks like a new character in Heavy Rain, or at least the same character in a different guise. The visuals are certainly impressive and suggest the French developer might just succeed in their goal to create expressive and emotional videogame characters

One of my favourite developers, and I haven't even played their games yet.

I just about shat myself after I looked at all the screenshots. I haven't heard of the game until now, and it looks gorgeous.

All I remember about this game is the video that we saw a couple years ago... they were sort of doing a 'video interview' for a lead for the game... I think they said 'No' to the character for being too tall... made it look like an amazing game as it is.

    Actually the casting call was originally unleashed back in 2006, it mayve have resurfaced in a news article but it was certainly not new.

    The original tech demo trailer is a couple years old. It was shown at E3 when PS3 was still new.
