PS3 classic from Quantic Dream, Heavy Rain makes its upgraded debut on the PS4. Still a classic, slightly showing its age.

A few technical hiccups barely temper the emotional impact of this tense, character-driven thriller.

Heavy Rain is a hell of an experience. Its controversial control scheme actually works really well in allowing the fantastic story to dictate how events play out, and many of the game's scenes will keep you on the edge of your seat.
