First look at Heavy Rain - behind the scenes footage

Following the release of new screenshots last week, Quantic Dream has let out a behind the scenes video demonstrating some of the new technology they are utilizing in the upcoming PlayStation 3 thriller, Heavy Rain.

As you can see in the video below, from weather effects to facial animation capture, Heavy Rain is undoubtedly shaping up to be one of the most visually impressive games on Sony’s flagship console thus far.

Heavy Rain is scheduled for release in 2009.

    didn't realise the french were making this.  Their films are usually awesome so this should have some great direction.  Looking forward to it.
