We usually post this on a Saturday, but after all the controversy we had this week regarding Heavy Rain and a Premonition of a Deadly nature, it didn't seem appropriate. Luckily, we had time after the weekend to cut a brand new edition of VSWID, this week featuring Sony's huge exclusive game. 

In this week's episode we discuss art, narrative, and what it truly means to be fresh and unique in the videogame industry. As with all episodes of The Videogame Show What I've Done, things are introspective and informative. You can truly take home something to think about with this week's show. 

Sit back and enjoy!

That was a damn good episode! I definitely laughed harder than I expected, even though the joke was obvious...

See I thought this was funny, but I also am kind of sad that this wasn't a proper episode. I was hoping to see one on heavy rain! Jim you have raised my hopes and dashed them quite excellently sir.

I actually finished my only play through of Heavy Rain on Saturday. Its an interesting game. Not what I would call fun in the traditional sense, but certainly interesting and enjoyable. Better voice acting and scripts would have been nice though.

They really should keep David Cage as far away from creative control of the plot as possible if he had anything to do with the game's final act.

Brilliant video. This has made my Monday all the more tolerable. Especially after the game decided to crash on me on Saturday and take my save game with it.

HILARIOUS. Jim, thanks for all of the golden entries. When the crying / bashing fanboys appear, so does the nonstop hilarity.

It was a tremendous feat, but I was able to avoid ANY spoilers. You're good to go, chief!

Jim Sterling is kinda like Deadly Premonition:

Ah, fuck it I was somehow gonna explain that but I think that would ruin the magic... let's just say that I mean that as the highest praise that I can give to him without spraying my love juice all over this titan of a man!

A good example of a game that can ONLY be done on the PS3. If only 360 was this good...
