    Hi there,

    My boyfriend has an XBox and although I'd love to get him Heavy Rain, it's only for PS3.

    Can anyone recommend a few games that are similar in quality to Heavy Rain?

    I know about Alan Wake but looking for any others that might be good...thanks!!:D

    Fahrenheit, Its from the same developers, its an original Xbox game, and it is available for download from the marketplace :)

    Deadly Premonition.
    Bit of a strange game though

    Alan Wake is decent, I couldn't get into it but my better half loves it...

    10er new in Tesco last time I checked...

    Looking for a QTE game for xbox is actually hard to come by!

    Thanks for all the replies, maybe Alan Wake is the way to go then! Fahrenheit looks good also, is it a bit older though? Just want it to look good graphically and be a good game!

    Deadly Premonition would be the one to go for. Great story but the gameplay can be a bit crap. However stick with it and it's very rewarding and much better than Heavy Rain.

    Like the look of Deadly Premonition, that's a definite contender!

    Also spotted L.A. Noire, looks impressive, has anyone played it?

    LA Noire would be a perfect alternative. Seriously consider getting him points to buy fahrenheit though, it's a great game- I though it was a hell of a lot better than Heavy Rain
