They're about as close as they can be in the game. Analogue stick motions for things like taking off your glasses/ taking out money to bribe people uses different rotations (like Jet Set Radio), that kind of emulate the motion of said tasks. Similar things like opening drapes or leaning on things, etc...

The motions make sense for the situations given. Not just "hit left for the sake of hitting left".

Oh, that sounds really good then.

When I heard
"In the fight scene during the demo, it keeps telling you to press one of the four buttons randomly constantly and the end result is dependent on how you did."
It sounded like it was horrible colour matching with no rhyme or reason like in Sonic Unleashed.

Yeah, it's not that bad.
It does have you hitting face buttons during the fight in the demo, but it's a solidly done QTE.
I'd say check out the demo to see if you like it though.  You can get through the first section (prostitute interview/fight with random guy) pretty quickly if you want to.  Or you can take your time to get more info out of her.

Dreamcast had blocky as Hell textures man, you are crazy!  :shock:
Wat? I remember playing in VGA and being simply jaw-dropped.. It was a while back, so as I said, it must be that awe feeling overwhelming me  :roll:

Would love to, but I dun have PsTripple yet unfortunately.  :|

I do plan to get one for Yakuza 3 though, so I'll have a look then!

Forgot about that one.
Don't forget about Valkyria Chronicles whenever you do pick one up :).
I'll probably pick up Heavy Rain at some point, and post my thoughts on how the whole game holds up.
