If you've been following Heavy Rain at all, I'm sure you would agree with me that if any game needs a demo, it's this one. With such a unique approach to gameplay, many gamers will be reluctant in parting with a solid chunk of cash on something so out of the ordinary. It appears that the guys at Quantic Dream are quite confident in their game and as such, want to expose as many people to it as possible in the form of a demo.

In an interview between Quantic Dream's CEO, David Cage and G4, a demo is in fact in the works; however, creating a demo for such a unique game has brought about its own set of challenges.

We are currently working on a demo, which is a real challenge. Finding one scene that can convey what we are trying to achieve with Heavy Rain is something really difficult. If we show an action scene, some players will think that this is what Heavy Rain is all about, and it is the same thing if we show an exploration scene. The problem is that each scene of the game offers contextual game play, which is something very difficult to explain and convey in a single demo. Demos are often a double-edge thing: if you don't release one, players may think that you have something to hide. We also know many good games that ended up not being massive hits because the demo could not convey the quality of the game behind it.

Heavy Rain is expected to hit store shelves sometime early next year, so don't be surprised if this demo pops up on PSN in the near future.
