Heavy Rain is de Citizen Kane van de games, orakelde collega Simon nog in Chief 031, maar zo'n pioniersrol gaat blijkbaar niet zonder de nodige groeipijnen, want op de Amerikaanse officiële PlayStation-fora stapelen de klachten zich intussen op. De winkelversie zou te kampen hebben met technische problemen als blanke schermen en corrupte savefiles.

Een Amerikaanse Sony-techneut heeft de forumgangers aldaar al verzekerd dat alle gerapporteerde bugs met de grootste spoed en zorg bekeken worden en vraagt de gedupeerden om hun console zeker niet uit te zetten als de game blijft hangen, want daar komen de beschadigde savefiles van. 's Mans volledige antwoord vind je hieronder:

"Hi folks, this is just to let you know that the issues reported in this thread and elsewhere are being looked into. We're currently trying to establish any common factors for people who are experiencing game freezing so if you are having trouble please be as thorough as possible with regards to your PS3 setup - are you using a launch version of the console or a brand new slim, playing in standard or high definition (I'm not suggesting that these are potential causes, just making the point)... any information you can give may help to find where the issue lies."

One word of advice we've had already is to avoid switching off your PlayStation while the game is in black screen as this may be affecting your save game. There have been a few reports of incidents where game saves have taken longer than would normally be expected - and with a black screen present it may leave the assumption that the game has crashed. In these circumstances we recommend you wait at least 5 minutes before rebooting - while it's highly unlikely a save will take this long, it's better to be safe than sorry."

"While incidents of problems with the game are very low we're working to ensure that everyone gets the Heavy Rain experience they expect. As soon as there is any further information we'll update further."
