Forums - Sony - Heavy Rain - Won't be ready for 2009

Remind me again why I bought a PS3 so soon? :X

At least Uncharted is great. Killzone 2 is ok.

But the amount of delays for this system is enormous.

Well you can rely on Uncharted 2 releasing in November



DELAY!!! DELAY!!!

Wait... I feel that the word 'delay' is missing a few letters. Lets see if I can find them. T I O A S N T, can anyone tell me what that would look like if it was on the end of delay? I mean after re-arranging the letters of course.

No offense intended.



Tease.

Heavy Rain is still a more justified delay than most games. The amount of content and the complexity of the game is staggering, and I would be surprised if Sony weren't weary over releasing a new IP in the genre of Heavy Rain, in such a crowded holiday season.

Yeah he mentioned it at the end of a Heavy Rain video posted a few days back.

I guess for the holidays, Sony are going to rely on R&C, Uncharted 2, and possibly MAG.

That sounds very much like Holidays 2007, minus Lair.


Still... all we have on xbox is Halo.... so yea this is pretty much 2007s lineup lol.

If this is true, it will be interesting to see what SONY have for Christmas.

They cant just depend on FF13

You know that FFXIII is a 2010 game, especially for Europe, correct?


Im talking about Japan



                            

Tough luck for Sony, however I still understand why this game is so hyped up. Yea the graphics looks nice but there's nothing to back up that this will be a system seller/killer exlusive, or do we need to remind everyone about Lair and how everyone, including the media, claimed it would be a total blockbuster?



What are you looking at, nerd?

If you were expecting PS3 exclusive Heavy Rain to arrive some time this year, you can think again. Geoff Keighley Who Hates Bloggers has confirmed that, despite Sony's David Reeves calling it the most important title of 2009, Quantic Dream's Heavy Rain won't see the light of day until 2010.

While this news will be seen as very expected by some, it doesn't take away from the fact that Sony's apparent hot year of exclusive titles has been a little disappointing compared to what we expected at the top of 2009. As last year drew to a close, we were looking at Killzone 2, inFAMOUS, Heavy Rain, MAG and God of War III. Now Heavy Rain and GoW III are confirmed for 2010, and it'll be surprising if MAG doesn't join them. 

This is the big problem with the PS3. Its hottest exclusives are excellent games, but they are few and far between. The PS3 user experience seems to consist of a lot of waiting around while listening to promises, and it's really quite frustrating. Still, it's doing a little bit better than the Xbox 360 right now, so that's something.

What? 2009 has just started and we've seen Killzone 2, MLB 09 and Infamous already for the PS3, compared to the Wii's Punchout and the 360's nothing

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

If Alan Wake isn't delayed, there is a decent chance it will wipe the floor with both Uncharted 2 and R&C, the only two PS3 exclusives of note that appear to still have 2009 release dates...
