Heavy Rain [PS3]

[teddymeow]

Sony rep came in yesterday and said this would be out on 26th February over here. The same day, he says, as White Knight Chronicles.

It's also Mrs Teddys' birthday so that's that sorted!

After seeing it being played at the Gamestation conference last year I've become much more excited by this. The facial animation looks top notch and the story could be very interesting indeed.

LE is HMV exclusive (This is one I certainly will pay for), and game has been classified as a 15.

Awesome, ordered.

[Number45]

It's also the same price as the non-LE on HMV at the moment.

[MikeRox]

Sweet, just pre ordered the CE, after I missed out on the Infamous SE I'm not getting caught out again. Especially as HMV sold out of their LE District 9 Blu-ray in the first couple of days.

[Blade Runner]

Does HMV charge for pre-orders?

[ezee ryder]

Not until they ship.

And don't forget the QuidCo.

Posting it for the horror!

US boxart:


UK LE boxart:


I think the UK standard boxart might be the same as the LE, but without the embossed rain effect.

EDIT: Also noticed that both the PEGI rating on that UK box and the BBFC rating on the PS website state it's an 18, rather than a 15 as mentioned previously.

[Flabio]

The BBFC website itself still says it's a 15. Although the LE could theoretically be rated higher, depends whats in the extras.

I'm looking forward to this. Sadly, I'm passing on the special edition. (I'm getting really tight!) This game really intrigues me, hopefully it turns out great.

PS3 is finally getting some games I want (Uncharted 1&2 and LBP were really the only games I played on it.) Sadly, all those games are within a few days of each other! (Heavy Rain, FF 13, Star Ocean International, and White Knight Chronicles).

[Family Fry]

special edition is still priced at 39.99 from hmv. has extra episode on there as dlc ep 1 of 4.

[Number45]

Yup, silly not to go for the SE at the moment, only a couple of quid more than the standard release.

[Golgo]

dont like US boxart. looks like they felt desperate to get some titties in there for maketting. lookin forward to but will sit tight for the reviews.

edit - just noticed point of the V indicates her left nipple.
