Posted on Thursday, November 3 @ 12:54:51 Eastern by danielrbischoff

Sony announced today via their PlayStation Blog that Heavy Rain, one of the earliest and highest held exclusives to the PS3 platform, would be getting rereleased this month in a Director's Cut pack.

The pack includes tons of content:
  • Complete, original, game Heavy Rain
  • Heavy Rain Chronicles: Episode 1 - The Taxidermist DLC
  • Heavy Rain Original Videogame Score by award-winning film and television composer, Normand Corbeil (16 tracks)
  • New front-end menu and interface with built-in Move support
  • A series of 8 "Making of" Bonus Videos
  • Three Dynamic Themes (Heavy Rain, Heavy Rain ARI Forest, Heavy Rain ARI Mars)
  • 15 additional pieces of new concept art
  • 2 bonus Trailers (Thank You Trailer, Love Trailer)
Whether you plan on picking up this new release or not, all PSN account holders can download a Heavy Rain dynamic theme for free on November 8th. The best part of all this? The game will only run you $29.99! Seems like I'll have to finally pick up a copy to play myself.

    I've resisted so long... This will definitely get me to pick it up even though I was eyeing the GotY edition at Gamestop today.

    Oh lucky you! I didn't find the GotY thingy

    Also, after reading this I have much more respect for From Software, for releasing games that are, in their own words, "complete", with no further DLC or stuff.

    Isn’t this the title where the Developer was whining about used game sales?

    Meh. A making of could be cool, but David Cage's accent is so horrible nobody cares.
    And the DLC is 15 minutes long.

    It's cool for those who never played it, but otherwise... meh.

    I agree, Kakulukia. However, it is a great opportunity for new people to check out what Heavy Rain has to offer. A game like this deserves more sales, maybe if it does Quantic Dream will give us another masterpiece sooner than later

    I'm not sure I would call it a masterpiece. It's definitely unique and interesting, definitely worth a play through and worth the 30 dollar price tag, but it wasn't without it's own share of problems.

    Problems included, I'd put it at the very least in my top 5 games of this console generation. Your mileage may vary of course, but I thought it was an incredible example of what games have become and what they can possibly be.
