Truly, truly amazing. For those who have not downloaded the demo yet, go do so, it's sheer genius.
Remember Grim Fandango? Well Fahrenheit is an adventure game that plays a little bit that, but is completely different in it's own way. This time, every move you make really does make a difference. Everything is completely interactive - you can basically do what the hell you want. Got blood on your hands? Walk on out, and let people become extremely suspicious of you. Or, you could wash your hands. Or you could hide the body - or leave it - or leave the knife....?
There are also snap decisions that must be made, so it's all pretty exciting. It's highly recommended.

The much hyped different decisions and endings in the demo were a bit of a dissapointment. Most of them end up with you getting arrested, thus the game ending.
Still, it's an interesting little game. Probably give it a go when the full game comes out.

Downloaded this a few weeks ago and I have to say I was throroughly impressed with it.
The controls were a bit iffy at first, but it's very innovative all in all. And yeah, it's definitely an aquired taste - probably won't sell well becuase of it's style of gameplay. People would rather be playing Half Life 2 and Battlefield 2 (which are both so good I could die).
Yeah its quite good. Wont appeal to everyone but all the outcomes give some replay value. The camera angles can be a right be-atch though.
