Its very much like indigo prophecy.

They took that and made it 10 times better
It's going on my list then. Indigo may have been one of 5-6 ps2 games that I beat all the way through. (helps that you could lose to the final boss and the game still ended though)

Just 2 chapters left, the story is coming together nicely. I'll be done later on today if the kids decide to nap.

this game is very addicting. i played through it once with some "mishaps" occuring and it definitely has some replay interest to it as i want to see what happens when different decisions are made. this game even interested my wife enough that she sat on the couch and watched, i let her make some of the decisions, as i played through the entire game last night. so two times through the game and i'm gonna play it again.

to give an indication of interest levels

my wife is not a hardcore gamer at all. she plays tiger woods with me and likes to play wheel of fortune and jeopardy on the ps3 but other than that she doesn't touch gaming systems. but she was really interested in the storyline and liked the game and asked if i was going to go through different scenarios and play it again.

my son is addicted to it too. he's an x-boxer who likes first person shooters mostly. he's got the attention span of, to use Uuaww's term, melted butter, but keeps borrowing the game.

for what it's worth, this game deserves the high marks and anticipation it got.

Just finished it up now, great game. I'll probably try it again and do things differently on purpose just to see a different ending. I'll be honest though, not sure what the motivation will be to keep this game after seeing a few different endings. I'll check out the download content when it comes out, but this might be an early return, especially with MLB and GOW 3 coming out with the Gamestop 50% trade in promotion.

Very good game. Finished it last night but fucked up with one of the characters (Jayden) so I'm going to have to go through it again to see his ending.

If you go to the chapters and can determine in which chapter you messed up, you can just play it starting from that point forward. I did that a couple of times doing some different things to see some different endings

The DLC comes out tomorrow supposedly. I have a code to get it free from my preorder. I think this might be an early return as I doubt I will replay it anymore, unless the DLC blows me away.

Wait, that happens for everyone?

I thought I read it as it was a glitch in the game that some people were able to find.

Damn, I mean I highly doubt I'll be playing this game, but I gotta say, I am totall interested now. :lol:

I think it does. This game is all based on different choices.

Some may have made the choice not to put her in the shower, some may have.

I did. :oops:

Dont want to give away anything to anyone that hasnt gotten so far, but she gets naked like 2 more times at least. :lol:

Who would CHOOSE to not put her in the shower?

Other than Hoos, of course, but that goes without saying.

I don't know Hoos personally, nor have I played him in the NDL, so I have no reason to question his sexuality...but this post made me laugh nonetheless

Awesome,awesome game.

Just finished up today.

Was wondering of the guys that got it, did you play it again and do everything the opposite?

They say depending on key points throughout, the entire story changes again.

Here is the path I took and was thinking of doing it again with totally different choices(spoilers below):
Spoiler!
I accused the other cop as the killer which got Jayden kicked off the investigation.
I didnt get the password write each entry on the CPU in the orchid room but I did get in the refrigerator correctly.
I was able to find Shaun and killed Shelby at the end.
I also had his other son killed early on and wondered if I could save him.
No rush to trade it in so Ill give it another go doing the opposite of everything I did the first time.

Great game.

9/10 Cs for me.

BTW, check out the extras and the real life actors who played the people.
And yes, Madison is WAY hot. :lol:

Goes to show you how amazing the graphics are as they look exactly the same and amazing similarities.

I preordered this so I got the code for the first DLC for this, The Taxidermist. It is a quick story pre Heavy Rain and this one involves Madison. Wasn't bad, but was very short and it shows that there are 5 or 6 different endings for it. I guess these are all going to be $4.99 a pop as they come out.
