[Backlog is the ongoing quest to rid Conrad Zimmerman’s collection of unfinished games. As voted on by the Destructoid community, Conrad plays each game from start to finish live on Destructoid’s Justin.tv channel every weeknight at 8pm Pacific]
Tonight, Backlog begins a whole new game. For our nineteenth series we’ll be playing one of the most divisive games of 2010, Quantic Dream’s Heavy Rain. It’s a title I was thrilled at the potential of. The approach they were taking to adventure gameplay was pretty fascinating. And when it came time to play, I wound up bored after a couple of hours.
It deserves another chance, despite what some of you may think. I know that there are things which will make me roll my eyes and I don’t care. You’ve chosen it, I’m playing it and that’s all there is to it. Come join me and the goons in our live chat as I tear into Heavy Rain. I’ll be waggling my Move wand and hanging out with you live on Destructoid’s Justin.tv channel!
