The sweetest piece of DLC I have played even if it only lasted 20-30 minutes.
-Story Focused (Heavy Rain)
-Clear Constructed narrative
-Discovering Clues
-Tasteful DLC worth $5
Cons:
-Short
I loved Heavy Rain, but some scenes in the game were minor distractions. This latest interactive scene though is a well crafted masterpiece with no down time. This DLC was free for me since I pre-ordered the game, but I am not sure I would pay for this and any of the upcoming episodes. I would pay for all the episodes if they came in one package and were priced in a reasonable range. No need to explain the gameplay because those who follow Heavy Rain know the deal, but I can honestly say this is some of the best gameplay Heavy Rain has offered. Well it is not the best, but it does the damn job. I actual enjoyed this more than some parts of the actual game, but this is all subjective.
Just know that Madison Paiges adventure is very interesting, but like all DLC, it is short and can be written off as a rip off because it should have been included as extra content after you beat the game. I am not sure if I am willing to pay $5 for the other episodes because I do feel that it is a rip off when you actually view the value of Heavy Rain. At $60, the game doesn't offer much except a great experience that doesn't last that long. Nothing is wrong with that, but it is kind of short and extra content should have been added to add more value. The DLC trend is getting out of hand, but at least Heavy Rain produced good DLC and honestly...$5 is cheap, but I would rather get this content free because I have already paid full price for the 'incomplete' experience.
