Video: First 9 Minutes Of Heavy Rain

You can’t possibly watch this, you know? I mean, it’s the first 9 minutes of an eight hour game, which effectively means that you’ll be able to watch the first 50th of the entire thing – one of the PS3′s biggest, most important games yet distilled into a YouTube video that you can just sit back and watch. It’s just not right. Right?

Still here? Good, because Heavy Rain’s still bloody ages away and this gives you an idea of how the game works. Move the chap’s head and hold down R2 to walk in a slightly awkward (and a little bit Resident Evil) way and then press buttons when prompted.  Heavy Rain – you’re either going to love it or hate it, but at least you can see for yourself now.

Warning: contains a very pert male bottom.

Update: video has been pulled by the original owner.  We have kept a copy, so we’ll see about getting it back up.

Update 2: there you go.
