Sony has released 15 all-new screenshots snapped from Playstation 3 exclusive Heavy Rain: The Origami Killer, the upcoming graphical masterpiece developed by Quantic Dream.
The project is caught between being hyped as the most graphically intensive game to grace PS3 yet and relying too heavily on context-sensitive actions that might hinder gameplay enjoyment. No matter which way you look at Heavy Rain, Sony has high hopes and should blow the lid off the project come E3 in a couple weeks.
This new batch of dark, wet and angst-ridden screenshots shows off a pair of characters, one of which looks a bit either a cross between Agent Smith from The Matrix and Agent Mulder from The X-Files. Their relationship, whatever it may encompass, is only a part of the complex story Heavy Rain should deliver. I can’t wait.
Heavy Rain *might* be in stores by year’s end. Here’s hoping Sony offers at least a window for release at E3.
