    Well first of all Quantic Dream games are not that good. Omicron was awful and Fahrenheit could've been good enough if not for retarded mini-games and retarded ending.
    Second - PS3 exclusive? For the first 3 months as usual - after that it will hit both PC and most likely XBox360. As usual. Quantic Dream won't lose all sales just because Sony bribed them. And making a game only for PS3 is a huge loss of money.
    UT3 was a PS3 exclusive too.

    Difference is that Sony has publishing rights to Heavy Rain. It'll likely stay exclusive.

    Who cares? Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy was shit, this looks like another interactive movie.

    Interactive movies can be fun, as long as you're not expecting a game...

    The first half of Fahrenheit was awesome.

    I quit after giant bugs came out of nowhere for no reason.

    This looks awesome but this confirms more Simon Says minigames. Ugh.

    :x, hoped they would have learnt from Fahrenheit, grew to hate that game despite a promising beginning (first 20 minutes or so anyway :wink:). The Simon says button mashing was only part of the reason, though a significant one.

    Fortunately PC owners are cool guys and that's why we can install a hack that removes all those retarded mini-games - showing cutscenes as cutscenes instead (and I totally don't understand what can be so fun about "simon says" minigames).
    Unfortunately nothing will fix the storyline stupidity that is inevitably encountered later in the game.

    The more exclusives for the PS3 the better, you can get almost all XBox 360 games for PC as well which is not true for many PS3 ones.

    What the hell. Quantum Dream's main audience was with the PC. Now they screwed themselves up by going PS3 exclusive. GG morons, they're expecting to sell a game that doesn't have OMGWTFBBQ graphics and belongs to the adventure-thriller genre on the PS3...

    That being said, I enjoyed Indigo Prophecy. The story was quirky, and the ending was shit, but all else being said, it was great fun. When the story's not trying to be crap, it really can get gripping at times

    The minigames aren't that bad...they just make the game feel more like a movie during those portions

    I liked Indigo Prophecy, but I was drinking massive amounts of cough syrup and eating fungus while I played through most of it. I thought the story was pretty cool and otherworldly for a video game plot. This looks like it should provide similar entertainment...

    Yeah sure - that's why Fahrenheit was a bunch of the exactly same retarded mini-games.
