Customer Ratings & Reviews

I sat on this game for almost two weeks before I decided to open it. At one point I even considered taking it back to get a refund. I just wasn't to happy about the review scores it was getting, and I hesitated on it. I'm so glad I decided to jump in and find out for myself. I think the graphics are amazing. I think the sound is great. I loved the score. I enjoyed the story. There really isn't much I can complain about, other than the game play being to close to "Heavy Rains." Its not really a negative per say, but its something I would have hoped for a little more innovation. While there are some changes, and the game play seems smoother than Heavy Rains, I still wish for a little bit more action in the "push buttons" area. That being said, there were times I was emotionally moved. It was something that caught me off guard, and something I didn't expect. Definitely worth its purchase price.... well at least to me.

One of the most beautiful games I've ever played. It's probably the closest to playing an interactive movie out there now. The story is amazing and with different endings, this game instantly has replay-ability. Some may not like the fact that it's most cut scenes then gameplay and that most of the time you'll just be pressing one button to make choices that can ultimately change the outcome of how you play it

The best way to sum up Beyond is to call it an interactive movie. Given this description it would be 5 stars, but the fact of the matter is that it is a game, and in that respect it's gameplay and controls leave little room for exploration. It is very linear... Now that said, the graphics blew me away and the story itself is enough to carry you along, even if it feels like you don't have that much freedom. There is a little customization insofar as you may uncover different parts of the story based on your choices (though as far as I can tell, you can't deviate from the plot line). Certainly worth the time if you like a good story and you find it for <$20 (essentially the price of a movie).

This game is a bit on the creepy side if you focus on the "entity" but if you just play the game you will find that it is more than a video game per say. This game unfolds like a drama, and a suspense film in one! Your emotions get involved and you feel for Jodie your choices affect the direction of the game and you want to see how it ends and when it does your disappointed b/c you want the story line, emotion, and connection to continue! I think this game will attract a new group to gaming if they will just give it a try. It kind of reminds me of the old story books as a kid where if you choose to do this turn to page 45 and if you choose to do this turn to page 118. You at least feel like you have input in Jodie's story and let me tell you it is an amazing one to live through and enjoy! This will be one you will pay over and over to experience different choices. I will say that it does have some foul language and some intense scenes so I would not want to play this around young children. That's my two cents! Hope it helps!

Beyond: Two Souls has a great story comparable or surpassing Hollywood films. Gameplay is also an interactive experience. Both the story and gameplay let you get immersed into the game. Voice acting by Ellen Page and Willem Dafoe are excellent as well.

Quantum Dream goes big with their interactive drama action-adventure video game. You Jodie Holmes, who has been living with a special entity since birth. This entity has caused Jodie to live a complicated life filled with sorrow, raw emotion, and highs and lows. As you play throughout the game, you control Jodie's decisions that effect how the story unfolds. This game features outstanding sound and visual design, incredible voice acting from a talented group (led by Ellen Page and Willem Dafoe), and an unforgettable story. Game controls can be a little rocky at times, but overall, it's manageable and plays smoothly. I highly recommend this game to individuals who enjoy watching a great story (with cinematic qualities) unfold.

If you're a fan of Heavy Rain, this one is an excellent title as well. Great story, great graphics. Decent replay value, as you can go back and make different choices along the way.

This is a great game but also becomes short because you can't stop playing! I was done in about 3 days for the simple fact that I loved playing it. It was a lot like watching a movie unfold in front of you. I love the way that your choices impact the outcome of the game. I have gone back and played it through making different choices. Some make a huge difference others do not. All in all I would definitely recommend and buy it again.

If you are like me and you loved playing Heavy Rain, you owe it to yourself to pick this one up. I got it as a Best Buy deal of the day and it was completely worth the discounted price. Intriguing story and excellent voice over work and graphics combine to give you a very satisfying overall experience.

I am a huge RPG gamer so what I notice in a game the casual gamer may not notice. The graphics are so realistic that at times it feels more like I am watching a movie rather than playing a game. The storyline is amazing although you get it in mixed up seemingly random events. This is not a linear game by any means. The controls are very easy and suitable for those who are just starting to play games.

I enjoy storyline games and this one didn't disappoint. The graphics were excellent, Willem Dafoe and Ellen Page were wonderful and all the supporting voices were engaging. Gameplay was a little short (I finished on hard after about 8 hours). The characters and story were so good I wish it lasted longer.

I really did love this game. Ellen Page and Willem Defoe do a fantastic job at voice acting their characters. This is a beautiful game with a story that is both engaging and immersive. Player controls may take some time getting used to if you have never played a quanticdream game before but as a Heavy Rain veteran, I felt right at home. Combat sequences take some time to get used to but after a few stumbles I was able to go through the rest with ease. If you want a deep story, this is a good game for you. Just don't go in looking for a action packed third person.

So I bought this game because it was 10 bucks ($8 with Gamers club unlocked). I had heard decent reviews so I took a shot. Its not my type of game but I will say its a very good game. Graphics and story are amazing. For the right price, this game is worth checking out if you havent played it yet.

This game gets some hate, but I think it's pretty good. It really is more like an interactive movie, but I don't have a problem with that. The story is pretty good, not great, but if you don't mind the whole interactive movie thing, this game might be for you.

Once you realize that this not your typical game, you'll love this game. The graphics and storyline are exceptional!! If you've enjoyed past Quantic Dreams games, you'll love this one, too!

I really enjoy this game. Graphics are very nice, story is interesting. Keep in mind though that this is really more like an interactive movie. Very enjoyable, and worth a look.

This game delivers one of the most unique experiences I have ever played. The choices you make in the game can drastically change cut scenes in the game. Great story fun game

As other review mentioned, this is not a game at all. This is a movie. A great one. The picture, the story, the voice acting. Would like to see more "video games" like this be made from great movies.

In general I really liked this game. After having just finished The Last of Us I wanted another game to play with an emphasis on story and this fit the bill. The gameplay wasn't as engaging and as someone who plays the XBox360 more than the PS3 it was kind of weird trying to remember which symbol corresponded to which button especially since most of the gameplay is through quick time events. However, the story kept me playing and I found it pretty engaging. I can see how someone might not like this kind of game though. I used to play adventure games on the PC back in the days so I knew what I was getting into.

Previews for this game do not do it justice. I avoided it because I thought I would be disappointed, but it's actually one of my favorite games of PS3 gen. If you liked Heavy Rain, or you like complex and interesting stories, it's a great game. There is action in the game, but if all you play is twitch shooters, I'm not sure you'll appreciate the slower parts. A great game for adult/mature gamers who like complex stories even if the gameplay moves more slowly at times.
