Heavy Rain Shown Behind Closed Doors At E3 2008?

38
Looking at the official Sony press release, first party PlayStation 3 titles that were shown at E3 are listed in the release. One PlayStation 3 title from the press release that has not had coverage is Heavy Rain. Is Heavy Rain being shown behind closed doors by Sony? If so, the press would likely have to had signed an NDA to keep quiet about the game. If anything, the game will probably be fully unveiled at the Leipzig Games Convention next month.

1.1 - I am honestly very dissapointed with this years E3
nothing new or exciting. We saw more footage on games we had already seen gameplay for so nothing new there. I was really hoping on seeing either new ips such as the one about that english reporter who was very impresed with a video they showed. No ICO info, nothing on heavy rain, MS didnt give anything new exept for the whole FFxii thing which seemed more of a SE announcement. Nintendo don t care really. I honestly cant see a winner this E3 as we were all expecting more from both sides and both sides really underwhelmed. Where the hell is heavy rain, at least some videos will do just nice, why behind closed doors, what about the gamers, the fans. Seems like all this wait for E3 was a waste of time. Im not sure about the rest of you guys but we gamers havent been excited about much for quite a while now.

Well, E3 is a North America centric games convention, so there will likely only be announcements from North American game studios. Leipzig is centric towards Europe, so there will be European game announcements there. TGS is centric towards Asia, so there will be Japanese game announcements there. It's just how it is. Heavy Rain is a European developed game so it's likely to be shown at Leipzig than at E3 just as Team ICO will probably blow out at TGS.

you are so right. Was it me or was the G4 team all over MS D#$#. You Had Morgan Webb making jabs at sony for the last 2 days. She keep saying sony needs games sony needs games. Then you got the other pecker heads all over Queffy B and gears of war. 80% of games shown by M$ at E3 are Multi Plat. Sony showed some new IPs today and all we hear is they didn't show much yea OK. I just don't understand it, why all the hate for the ps3 I don't think if sony didn't enter the gaming market it wouldn't be what it is today. The media is so pro MS it's funny, almost.
sony is about coming out with new IPs and stuff,and you got M$ throwing boats loads off money around to 3rd party devs. I can not wait for M$ to come out with the 720 just so people get stuck with there broken 360s wake up boys what happens when they stop sending the coffins, then what.

Perhaps you may have some what of a point but isnt GG a european studio? so why do we see KZ2 but not other IPS. Trust me I am not one of those pS3 owners who bs about selling their console just because of the FFxIII thing, doesnt worry me one bit. I guess I just see it as every passing year with improvements on engines and experience with the hardware we should be able to see new projects. Last year was a great and exciting E3 but this year really didnt seem to wow anybody. I guess a little more info on all those rumors that have been going on for a while about new games and accessories either a confirmation or debunked them. Im not hating on what Sony offered but I was just expecting to be wowed this year with as I mentioned before all the rumors that have been going on. I think a lot of people just thought there would be more to it than what we saw.

I seriously hope Zone of the Enders 3 gets announced at TGS! Btw, can someone please tell me when TGS starts this year?

ON TOPIC: I'm actually not surprised Heavy Rain didn't show up at E3. I just hope it'll show up at Leipzig. :)

Why I think: with the FFXIII news, I think any news on heavy rain might have been overlooked. They needed something to regain their momentum back, and MAG is something that we've not heard anything about, in order to steal the show at Leipzig. I think even if they announced all their games in development at e3, many would still have said MS win and then they'd have nothing to show later in the year.

i think we will be hearing on team ico and the RPGs during TGS, its more appropriate to announce it there.

12 - seriously guys come on
How could you possibly fall for that M-A-G bull already

the guys spent five mins talking about nothing but game multiplayer stats "256", "lots of explosions", "kick ass"
No one can call the 360 the shooter machine anymore
I wouldn't turn around and call sony the same
but it is kinda tiring not seeing white knight story, heavy rain, etc
and you guys getting wet when they show MAG, Socom, killzone
all shooters! albeit they did show infamous but i've seen lots of people going, "MAG saved e3"
---____---

firstly, until you guys see ingame footage i'd calm the f**k down; the ps3 has enough shooters already sheet.
its like sony just had to wave that ugly A$$ cgi trailer and that completely placated some of you.
we knew god of war was coming for AGES, they shoullda shown ingame footage, but no that' doesn't matter they showed us MAG
sigh

12.2 - @Faztkillar
seriously who cares if it does match it?

why have THREE big shooters

last year people were saying the 360 was lame for having

mass effect, halo, and bioshock

thing is, mass was an rpg shooter(third person), and bioshock wasn't merely a shooter when you take into account your abilities

resistance and killzone look pretty, but i've yet to see anything holyomgbbq revolutionary about them; hell they don't necessarily have to reinvent the wheel at all. Halo didnt and i still liked it.

BUt you can't whip out yet ANOTHER shooter.

where's heavy rain, team ico, rockstar exclusive, la noire, jak n daxter
