The player who went after him managed to stay out of the robbers' line of sight. His reward was a bullet in the shoulder - not enough to kill Scott, but likely enough to affect his right arms' performance for the next few weeks.

I love playing video games, and I heartily appreciate the good ones - but the games that fill me with keep-you-up-at-night anticipation are few and far between.Īfter playing Heavy Rain for the first time on the show floor at PAX, something tells me my slumbers will soon be interrupted by Quantic Dreams' upcoming. I don't think I'm being too cynical or jaded when I say that it's hard for me to get legitimately excited for video games anymore.
