^ Yeah Sony most likely owns the IP like they do for almost all Sony funded games except for Heavy Rain

I know they own the Demon's Soul IP and I'm 90% sure they own Mod Nation Racers


I don't think they're co developing Heavy Rain, but it's interesting that they don't own that IP though.

Quantic Dream (developers of Heavy Rain) signed a contract with Sony giving Heavy Rain PS3 Exclusivity but in the contract it stated that the Heavy Rain IP belonged to Quantic Dream and not to Sony. They wanted to hold onto the IP so only they could produce or give the green light to possible sequels.


Oh I know the HR IP belongs to QD, but I figure Sony would've learned their lesson with losing the Crash and Spyro IPs, I know they said they'll fund PSN games and the developers will keep their IP, but this is different, this is a full blown BD game, besides HR, I actually can't think of others since Crash and Spyro where Sony funded full blown games and the developer kept the IP....
