Thoughts on Heavy Rain

[CODE_umb87]

Looks like the Heavy Rain DLC has been delayed yet again for the US PSN store.

I was looking forward to it.

Just because it's not on the public release list doesn't mean it didn't go up with the update. The DLC was always intended only for those with pre-order codes (and with the EU Collectors Edition) at first, and would be released as a purchasable item further down the track.

I do believe the delay affected those with the codes already and wasn't an indication of when it would officially be released for everyone else to purchase. The official store wide PSN release is still TBC.

Someone with the DLC code from the US and a copy of the game will have to check.

Got it today. Love it.
Though the game gives you trophies for some fucked up shit, like...

You're right, it is up only for those who pre-ordered. I did have a code for it but just assumed it wasn't there at all since I didn't see it. Thanks.


EDIT: Just finished playing the Taxidermist and wow, the whole episode was very creepy and atmospheric. Can't wait for the next episode.

I didn't get it yet, and I tried my code. It says it isn't there yet.

^ Really? Thats weird, I got my code from amazon and it worked fine.

Got this for my birthday. Techinically it's not until next week, but I started playing it today.

Absolutely blown away. Really really really enjoying it so far. I bought the game as somewhat of a curiousity. I knew barely more about it than that there's a killer who leaves origami with the victims, and you play as 4 characters trying to solve the crime. I knew that it was mostly QTEs, but that didn't really deter me. With little expecations, and no story spoilers, I'm really really really enjoying it so far. Can't wait to play more tomorrow, and get further in the story.

Glad to hear you got it in the end SG.

I really was a little iffy about it when I started playing it... I'd really wanted to like it, that I started to not like how it was unfolding at first - but the more I got into it, the more involved I got in the story.

I've almost completely finished everything now, just 2 endings away from the All Endings and thus the Platinum trophy now and I'll have seen everything I can I think.

Just got Heavy Rain. I also made the Origami on my first try lol.

Oh man, I wanna see that movie now. Clive Owen and Scott Shelby (well, Sam Douglas). He even wears a trenchcoat like Shelby. Awesome.

Its amazing how the actor truly becomes the character they portray to fans. Bela Lugosi will always be Dracula. Mark Hamill will always be Luke Skywalker. Daniel Radcliffe will always be Harry Potter. Sam Douglas will always be Scott Shelby. And yes...it truly is amazing that his character in Derailed is dressed almost exactly like Shelby from the game. Definitely a kick ass find, Aris.

I finished the game last week.

BIG SPOILERS

What the hell happened to Scott's voice acting once it was revealed he was the killer? It goes from quite good, to downright horrible.

I'll give it a few weeks before I start playing it again. Looking forward to trying to get another ending.
