I started it tonight. While I really like what this game tries to do; the dialogue, cutting the screen between two characters and the way it makes me feels as I play, I REALLY dislike the controls. I can look past the graphics, which are very grainy.
I played up until the part where the cop comes to your apartment. I messed up the first time and got arrested when I missed the rag on the floor. I don't mind having to figure out ways to protect myself, but I hope there isn't too much of it with things I don't know are even there..
I'm going to try to play this until the end because the game seems just as interesting as you made it out to be on the podcast. I like the interaction part, but the one QTE I've done seemed pretty lame. Heavy Rain looks like it improves that quite a bit.
