Under ganska lång tid nu har det snickesnackats om att Heavy Rain ska innehålla en del scener med sexuellt innehåll. Nu när releasen närmar sig har den amerikanska åldersgränssättarbyrån ESRB motiverat Heavy Rains åldersgräns genom att beskriva de scener som främst föreligger beslutet (två med sexuellt innehåll och en med våldsamt).
Om man nu är intresserad av vad för slags snusk man kan förvänta sig i Heavy Rain så går det bra att läsa vidare efter hoppet, men var beredd på spoilers.

Om scenerna med sexuellt innehåll:
Shower cutscenes may depict a male character's bare butt; if players control the female character, her breasts and buttocks are also briefly visible. A more prolonged instance of nudity occurs during a female character's investigation of a seedy club owner: After getting him alone in a room, the player-character is asked to strip; at gunpoint, she dances topless in front of the man.
The game also contains a prompt-based love scene (kissing and rubbing) in which players match on-screen cues to angle characters' mouths, remove shirts and blouses, unhook bras, and lower to the floor; a woman briefly appears topless amidst the dark shadows and heavy breathing - actual sex is never depicted as the camera fades to black.
Om den våldsamma scenen:
The most intense instance of violence occurs during a "lizard trial" sequence in which players' character, Ethan, is forced to cut off a segment of his own finger to save his son's life: Several instruments (saw, scissors, knife, etc.) can be used to remove the finger; and though the camera pans away from the actual dismemberment - instead the blade, the blood, the scream - the scene's poring focus on Ethan's psychological tenor/terror (the dread deliberation before the cut) may be unnerving for some.
