Is Heavy Rain worth getting?

I have heard so much hype about it and is one I should probably get for the PS3 but just wondered is it more interactive story than game? Do you do a lot or mainly solving puzzles etc?

Also, off the back of HR is Beyond Two Souls good? Same devs but had heard mixed reviews on it.

Really enjoying the PS3 and the games (Resistance, Killzone, Infamous, Uncharted and The Last of Us) more than I did the 360. Although I don't like GT6 and will trade in for other games as there is zero damage and the controls go from either arcade, on-rails handling to 'on ice' twitchy steering that sends you careering off the track if you even think about touching the thumbstick lol.

It's worth a play. Great story. Has a few really good freaky moments as well that creeped me out. The story can branch different ways as well. I just rented it off gamefly and played it.

I never finished it but enjoyed what I played. More of an interactive story. So is Beyond but they are great interactive stories. Very atmospheric. I love rain to begin with so its nice having a game that just full of rain and the sound of rain. biggrin

I'm planning on restarting the Uncharted series again. I'm sad that I finished them but they are awesome games. Its been about a year since I finished U3 so its been all the longer since I finished the first two.
