Heavy Rain dev says Uncharted is like porn
Speaking to Gama, Heavy Rain developer and Quantic Dream founder David Cage has likened the narrative structure of Naughty Dog’s Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune to that of porn.
“I thought Uncharted was very interesting,” he said. “There was some very, very interesting aspects to it. The big difference between Uncharted and what we’re doing here is that Uncharted was still structured like a video game. It gives you a bit of story, then action, then a bit of story, then action – like porn movies, when you think about it.
“Porn movies are structured in exactly the same way, except that the action is not the same (laughter), but it’s the same structure. Most video games are done like that.”
More through there. It’s a bit late for stuff like this.

That’s funny because I think I got fucked when I bought my PS3.
JK. Couldn’t resist being a smart ass.

Interesting view!
To some degree he’s spot on with the porn anal-ogy.

He can talk the talk, but can his game walk the walk?

That was a bit of a misleading headline…I thought it’d be about the graphics or something…’eye porn or something’
Wait, you watch porn anyway. Never mind.

I do wish Uncharted was on the 360 – the more runny-jumpy-climby-action-adventurey-type games out there, the better.

Doesn’t everyone just fast-forward the ‘story’ bits in porn, though?
