Heavy Rain keeps it 'real'

Remember that old lady that's actually an evil AI in Indigo Prophecy? Or the part where nanomachines bring you back to life, and you start running on walls as helicopters chase you? Yeah, Heavy Rain ain't going there. "That's absolutely not the case with Heavy Rain," explained Quantic Dream's David Cage, director of both the aforementioned Indigo Prophecy and forthcoming Heavy Rain, when questioned during an E3 breakout session about the very real possibility of "fantasy" elements in the studio's new game.

The ARI (Advanced Reality Interface) technology, pictured in action above, is "the only liberty we took," Cage assured. "It's not a sci-fi game; no magic; no alien nothing; just reality." So, we guess that rules out having undead sex again?
