Heavy Rain Special Edition soundtrack suffers 'technical delay'

Apparently HMV will be sending out seperate codes for the soundtrack as soon as they can for us UK lot

Oh FFS Sony.

Track? TRACK?!! TRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!!!

you should look up the word "analogous"

What a miserable comparison. A car cannot be driven without a steering wheel. However, a complete lack of separate SE soundtrack didn't hinder my enjoyment of the game in any form or fashion. Furthermore, my game did not become uncontrollable and veer off the road into a telephone pole.

I'm not a lawyer either, but the only thing here that seems criminal to me is the level of stupidity in your statement.

Zomg,

This is like buying a house and only getting a roof. I didn't order a Gazebo!

Reply fail.

Sony has been having a heck of a time lately getting this redeemable code thing right. It was over a week since Aliens vs Predator was released, and my skins and map pack codes still don't work. It is kind of irritating that this happens so consistently with the Sony and the PSN...

P.S.

Since you wished vampires on our children. I wish Twilight vampires on your children.

Dear Sony...can you launch anything without f'ing up some part of it? I've been buying your consoles since forever and it is the same thing EVERYTIME.

Why is everything going wrong with this game

Apparently the voices sucked and they are trying to fix it.

Reading between the lines in the article, I think that ALL the content for the Special Edition is DLC. However, if you use the voucher code before March 4th, the music files won't be available.

The music files should be up by March 4th, so if you use your voucher after then, you'll get your soundtrack.

NOTE: I may be wrong.

ALSO NOTE: There may be issues with using the voucher code on the US PSN instead of the Euro PSN. Look into it if you are importing the Special Edition.

There's more than one song in this game? Because I'm hearing the same sad-sounding song OVER AND OVER AND OVER at the beginning and end of nearly every scene...

That aside, I dig heavy rain.

No, it would be more like you buying a car and then finding out that you're an idiot.

revenge for not releasing a Special Edition in the US?

Throwing fire at the internet?

the soundtrack is awesome. it's not hard to acquire with today's internet

Ive just completed Heavy Rain, and it stated in between intervals that i had unlocked bonus material, but once i was at the main menu it said i hadnt unlocked anything... is this a bug?

I picked up the collector's edition of this last night, I don't know why the US doesn't get it?

but i didnt get a soundtrack either :(

Akronon,

You're right, the SE content is all DLC. There's no physical soundtrack in the packaging and you're correct in stating you'll have to wait until March 4th to get all three but if you accidentally used the voucher already you'll be fine if you contact customer service about it. :O

Sonos,

Dude, relax, it's called teasing. The reason everyone is a dick in high school is so you can tolerate mild criticism in the real world. And your analogy was hollow, which you still won't acknowledge. Comparing a soundtrack to a steering wheel is not a great analogy. Like others said you can still play the game without the soundtrack whereas you cannot drive a car without a steering wheel. Analogies have rules and you didn't follow them. In that vein of thought a better game --> car analogy would be: That's like buying a car with all the perks and when you get the car you're told that the radio wasn't installed yet, but if you come back in a few weeks they'll get it installed for free. Yeah, you paid for a car with a radio, you're still getting your radio and it was late due to some manufacturing problem. Yeah, you're bitter but it's not the end of the world, you still have a new car. ;p

And don't yell at Mr. ESC, misplacing your anger is no way to deal with your problems. Jeebus.

I just finished this game for the first time and...it's powerful. Hell of it is, I did nearly everything perfectly and I still "lost" in a sense.

I just got an e-mail from HMV, they sent me an extra code in case I had already redeemed it

"Thanks for pre-ordering Heavy Rain Special Edition.

Sony have reported to us that there has unfortunately been a last-minute technical delay to the Heavy Rain official soundtrack, meaning that customers who have purchased the Heavy Rain Special Edition will not be able to download the Soundtrack until 4th March 2010. Sony recommend that you wait until this date to redeem your Special Edition voucher code which is in the game box - you'll then receive all the Special Edition content in one batch.

However, if you choose to redeem your voucher code immediately for the other downloadable content, you won't be able to receive the official soundtrack nor will you be able to use the same code to redeem the soundtrack on 4th March 2010. Therefore, you'll need the following code to enable you to download the soundtrack from 4th March 2010.

Your code is:
xxxx-xxxx-xxxx

Use on or after 4th March 2010 as per the instructions that came with the game.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused"

"Furthermore, my game did not become uncontrollable and veer off the road into a telephone pole."

I actually did crash the car...but into a ditch, and then I crawled out before the police came.

Maybe the soundtrack had as many audio dropouts as the game did.
