Heavy Rain was very flawed but a big step up from Fahrenheit. If this can manage a similar progression then it's definitely one to keep an eye on.

 

It's ironic they should get Ellen Page in, given she was obviously the inspiration for Ellie from The Last of Us.

Beyond can be played with an iPad

Other iOS and Android devices supported for PS3 game. Co-op mode also announced.

 

Beyond: Two Souls for the PlayStation 3 can be played via a touch screen iOS or Android device, such as the iPad, Sony has revealed at gamescom.

 

A free app for touch screen devices will be released, allowing the tablet to connect to the PS3 via WiFi. The game will switch to easy and feature a very simple touch-to-move control system.

 

Quantic Dream's David Cage also revealed that a co-op Duo mode will be included, allowing a second player to use a control pad to play as Aiden, with players using his powers to solve puzzles. Any combination of touch screen devices or controllers can be used to play Duo Mode.

 

The new touch screen control mode was designed for people who weren't "born with a Dualshock in their hands".

 

That's pretty intriguing.

I know virtually nothing about this game. Sony have been surprisingly quiet about it, too. I think I'll pick it up out of sheer intrigue.

Amazon must have put the price of it down at some point, but I have no idea when. I pre-ordered the steelbook version at £44.53, and now it's £32.99 in my account (which is less than the current price) and has been upgraded to free first class post.

Glad I still lurk periodically around these parts :wink:

 

Switched my £45 preorder from shopto to Amazon, so cheers for that.

Heavy Rain was worth it for the adrenaline rush alone so I'll probably pick this up when it's a bit cheaper simply because of the feels. It doesn't even need to be good, 'entertaining' will suffice.

Yeah Amazon have a ton of killer pre order offers.

 

This is £32.99 right now for the special edition.

 

:( Shame I don't have a credit card...Prices on German Amazon are atrocious. 70€ for the standard edition...

Just tried the demo out, got early access due to a gamestop give away for the US psn store.

 

Controls much better than any other Quantic Dream game that's for sure and it looks great.

 

Could do without the black borders though.

 

Not sure if they are still giving out codes. You need FB and you need to Like GS

Anyone else buying this? I played the demo over the weekend and loved it to bits. I was always getting it anyway as Heavy Rain was one of my favourite experiences this generation, so more of the same kind of gameplay/storytelling will be a treat.

 

The reviews are starting to pop up and wouldn't be surprised to see scores ranging from 4/10 to 9/10.
