Some good game-to-movie news for a change as the creator of ‘NYPD Blue’ and ‘Deadwood’, David Milch, has signed on to adapt TSA’s top game of 2010, Heavy Rain, into a movie. Milch will start work on the freshly truncated ‘Rain’ as soon as he has finished work on another project, HBO horse racing series ‘Luck’.
Milch’s background in crime drama bodes well for the project, the core premise of a serial killer and a detective should stay intact but it will be interesting to see if Milch keeps in the science fiction elements of the story such as Jayden’s fabulous virtual reality desk.

I really have no idea how this would translate into a film, the whole point of the game was that you decided the course of the characters e.g. chosing what they did, or whether they should die or live.
It would be nice nuce if they filled in some of the large plot holes though.
Lets just hope they don’t recrute Mr. Whalberg for this film as well.

Would love to see all of the actors reprise their roles in this, despite the sometimes-dodgy voice work.

Read this as ‘Heavy Rain Move’ and was confused as it was already out…
but yeah, movie… okay. No pressing X to Jason, sadly.
Who else thinks Mark Whalberg will be Jayden?

Interesting, but I hold reservations as to whether it would really transfer well. Some things are best just left.

now which ending will they choose, theres a dozen :P still really loking forward to this, would be great if thay can keep the same tension and grippingness of the game and he same atmosphere on the big screen

Not really sure if they could have the same appeal as the game. What kept me wanting more was the tension appeal of the game itself. But will Hollywood coping very thing lately it was only a matter of time before the rights of this game was picked up for a movie
However, I wonder if it will even have the same effect. We all know how the game ends or can branch off. As long as the cast as good and the magic is different from the movie it will be better than Super Mario Bros for sure. :D

Would prefer it to be turned into a series, 6 or so episodes.

Will be good if they keep to the game …. HA!
