5. Heavy Rain A Naked Madison Ruins The Tone
Theres certain things a narrative or musical movement cant come back from, such as a well-placed fart in a orchestra. You can be playing the most sublime piece of music in the world, but if in the space between notes someone violently ejects wind, nothing else about that piece is going to matter. That fart will just sit there, like a smelly elephant in the room, dominating everything despite everyones desire to ignore it. Well, if you played your cards right (or were just shockingly perverse) you could do the same in Heavy Rain. If you decline the kiss during Ethan and Madisons love scene at the motel but trigger the resulting sequence anyway, you can play the rest of Madisons scenes with her completely naked. I dont need to tell you what this does to the whole film noir feel of David Cages epic much like that aforementioned fart, sticking a streaker into something dark and gritty just takes it past the point of no return. After all, if you make Madison turn up to the old warehouse wearing nought but her birthday suit, you cant really pretend youre playing a halfway serious game. I wouldnt be surprised if the killer was the one who ended up in shock out of all the things he could possibly expect, including police, FBI, private investigators or maybe some bloke taking his dog for a walk, a naked field reporter would not be one of them, and it sort of turns the resulting fight into a female version of Eastern Promises. I'm not putting the video here, go find it yourselves it won't take long, the internet's practically awash with it.
