10 Video Games That Mocked You For Winning
5. Heavy Rain
The beauty of Quantic Dream's "interactive drama" video games is that, one way or another, anyone who plays through them will reach the end, of which there are countless permutations due to their multiple protagonists and branching narratives.
Heavy Rain, which revolves around the hunt for the murderer known as the Origami Killer, pulled an especially cheeky fast one on players, however, by having them unknowingly spend most of the game playing as the actual murderer himself, private investigator Scott Shelby.
In a top-notch troll, most of the investigating the player carries out as Shelby actually turns out to be him covering his own tracks.
And if that's not enough of a "f**k you" to the player, it's entirely possible to end the game with the three other players dead while Shelby gets away scot-free.
Beating a Quantic Dream game doesn't require a conventional "win" in a narrative sense, yet regardless of how your story wrapped up, you spent hours of the game blissfully unaware you were doing the bidding of a cold-blooded murderer. Gross.
