History Funny / HeavyRain

'''Blake:''' [[''pops head out from doorway'']] Call the cops.

'''Blake:''' ...call the cops.
* Meta-example: play ''Film/TheBluesBrothers'' main theme during the first trial. You'll be laughing too hard to do the QTE.

* The very fact that Paco talks like [[WebAnimation/{{Homestarrunner}} Strong Bad]].

* Another bit of {{Narm}} comes during Madison's nightmare in her apartment. While she's running from the burglars that have apparently broken in, she hits one with a lamp and runs. One manages to catch up to her and come around in front of her, and while trying to get away from him she and him basically have a ''[[ZeroChops slap fight.]]''

-->'''Blake''': Why don't you ''fuck off'', Norman?

** Getting run over by 2 cars, one of which Normal will do a somersault and flop to the ground. The flip '''alone''' is enough to send a person in stitches from laughing too hard.

-->'''Shopkeeper''': Hey man, what about my tomatoes!?

* A minor and easy to miss moment is if Ethan cooks Shaun a slice of pizza for dinner. Instead of eating it normally the kid will use a knife to cut it and eat it piece by piece with a fork in the same manner a person would eat a steak. That is really just cultural dissonance; in most of Europe, it's quite normal to eat most food with a knife and fork like that, including pizza. Since Quantic Dream is a French developer, this is most likely just an oversight.

** Likewise, when the game asks you to perform easy [=QTEs=] simply to immerse in character, failing can produce hilarious results:

* Ethan picking up one of his son's RC car controller, playing with the car, then putting it back where he picked it up from; on the floor.
** Even funnier if Grace is around to wonder if Ethan bought it for the boys, or for himself.

* Mad Jack is so stereotypical, it's hilarious.
** Look at the size of those lips!
* When Jayden first arrives at the police station you can sit down and play the virtual "bounce the ball off of the wall" game. If you do it long enough someone walks by and gives him a funny look, and we see Jayden seeming waving his arm around for no reason from her POV.
** Even better... Watch the number floating near Norman's head - It goes up by one every time he bounces it off the wall. The counter itself is already over 20000. Just how long does Jayden normally get kept waiting?!

* Jayden and Blake, if you choose the "ironic" response after [[spoiler:not shooting Nathaniel]]:

** Norman's Troll-face is just ''hilarious''.

* The infamous "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0t0uCWjQ6Og Shaun glitch]]".
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEK5VxDMMjo It still exists in the PS4 remaster!]]

* The entire QTE market chase... "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-L-G1q_0L8 just try... not to laugh... when he collides with the swinging door... of all things]]''. Even the developers didn't think anyone wouldn't respond to the QTE prompts and bystanders can clip and/or try to walk right through you.

*** Doing nothing when [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9bFb3kpKeM drinking a carton of juice]], produces hilarious {{Narm}} as the character performs a MelodramaticPause while staring at their drink.
*** Repeatedly failing when tying your boss's necktie can have your (male) character repeatedly stroking your (male) boss's chest, while he's apparently unbothered.
*** When Madison is interrogating a man by repeatedly squeezing his testicles, releasing the button makes her let go - whereupon he sits idle, making no attempt to escape, for as long as it takes you to start again.

--->'''Norman:''' I'm not sure that's entirely legal.
-->'''Blake''': ...call the cops.

-->'''Norman''': I'm not sure that's entirely legal.

-->'''Blake''': FUCKIN' ASSHOLE!

* Mad Jack is so stereotypical, it's hilarious

* Meta-example: play the BluesBrothers main theme during the first trial. You'll be laughing too hard to do the QTE.

* Jayden going after the suspect in a super market, which carries such supplies as meat, fish, produce, and ''live chickens''. Nailing the Quick Time Events is not always possible, or preferred, depending on how hard you're laughing.
