Not that Sony representatives are fans of hype or anything, but an excited PR man seemed so thrilled withHeavy Rainthat he made one of the boldest statements we’ve ever heard, claiming thatHeavy Rainis graphically superior to the current benchmark of console visuals,Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.
The rep had been demoing Quantic Dream’s artsy fartsy adventure at CES and was asked how it holds up to such good looking and action-heavy games likeUncharted 2. His response was simple and bold: “Graphically, it blowsUncharted 2away.”
A big deal of course has been made ofHeavy Rain‘s animations, despite the creepy, uncanny valley atmosphere they seem to provoke. Even so, this is an epic claim to make, withUncharted 2considered by many to be the best looking home console game ever made.
Will Quantic Dream impress our eyes in the same was Naughty Dog did? Maybe if they fix the terrifying, unmoving eyes on all their characters.
