I remember reading something about the game being detailed at this years E3, but nothing happened.


I would fire off a tweet to Swery but I do not have a twitter account.

[cj_iwakura]

Still being worked on. Wasn't it slated for the holidays?

Waiting patiently for it, myself.

*off in some distant woods, York is driving around to the whistle theme*

"We seem to be lost, Zach. Should've taken that fork in the road -- the sign said the PS3 was to the north. But speaking of forks, Zach, do you remember how they used to have 'sporks' in the cafeteria? That was back in high school, when Return of the Jedi came out. George Lucas actually approached David Lynch to helm Jedi after his work on The Elephant Man, but Lynch declined to direct Dune instead. Can you imagine if Lynch had made Jedi, Zach? Neither can I!"

[Rez]

what. do you think

[Neiteio]

P. S. 3.

In. The coffee.

[Dany M]

I don't know Zach, but this does remind me of that one tv show. You remember what it was called? Yes, good job zach, Clockwork Orange.

[Neiteio]

In all honesty, York's too busy enjoying the turkey, jam and cereal sandwich.

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Soon as I'm done watching the entirety of Twin Peaks I'm playing through this game again.

Then I will play through it again when the PS3 version hits.
Future replays will follow.

[Neiteio]

Game's ending broke my heart, don't know how you can do it, Pepsiman.

[elektrixx]

This has to be one of the most socially overrated games of all time.

[Gez]

Wasn't it already out in Japan?

There was talk of a Director's Cut that would be out in America on PS3.

[revolverjgw]

Wish this would surface, this is an extremely high-priority in my backlog. I wish my 360 didn't start chewing discs.

[Mr. Enigma]

It was supposed to be shown off at E3 but nothing came of it. I'm also curious.

[shinkansen.3000]

I missed the part about Move support, between this, Okami and Portal 2 now I MUST get one!

I think the next we'll hear from this will be at GamesCom in August.

[HoFT013]

My girlfriend got me into Twin Peaks recently, and with my owning just a PS3, I now have to own this game. Just gotta wait it out,

While drinking some of this damn good coffee.

This has to be one of the most socially overrated games of all time.

What does that even mean?

[Acquiescence]

I don't think I could've thought of Deadly Premonition any less, but I've started watching Twin Peaks for the first time on Netflix these past few days. I was aware of the comparisons before but damn, I can see now that the game is borderline plagiarism. It doesn't just use the show as an influence; it desperately wants to be Twin Peaks The Game, yet merely comes off as a crass imitator.

Which wouldn't be so bad, were it not for the fact that DP's offbeat tone only gels for the first three hours or so anyway. Then it pulls off a Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy by getting progressively more mental while at the same time shedding its comedic streak for a more serious tone. You're left with a shit game that has no redeeming value. Ramped up combat segments exacerbate things immensely.

My advice to PS3 owners if the game ever makes its way onto the console - don't bother. Use that time to do what I'm doing now and watch Twin Peaks, it's great stuff.

[Jotamide]

This wasn't shown at E3 was it?

[Jinfash]

Oh. My. God.

[Theonik]

What does that even mean?

I think it means people think it's great because other people say it's great and they want to be hip with DP references.
Maybe.

[Alfredo]

I'm going to buy a PS3 for this game.

[Takao]

We actually had this thread during E3, lol

[Shiggy]

It was released in 2010, wasn't it?

[Night_Trekker]

Definitely playing this when/if it gets localized.

[Stumpokapow]

So create one. Twitter does not require any personal information. You can abandon (possibly even delete) your account when you're done. You can turn on Tweet privacy so that your tweets can only be seen by people who follow you. You have options :p

[jetsetfluken]

It is on PS3, in Japan. Under the name Red Seeds Profile.

That name is much cooler in my opinion.

As far as I know the developers said they wanted to get a "director's cut" version out so that missed regions like PS3 North America/Europe could get in on it. But that may not happen.

So if you have a PS3 and not a 360, import Red Seeds Profile. PS3 is region free. All dialog is in English.
If you have a 360, buy the NA/EU version on that.

Text is in Japanese though and the director's cut will have extra content.

Swery was asked about 2 weeks about it and replied, "Don't worry, speed is not important, right?" Haha.

[hwy_61]

I watched at least half of the Endurance Run(Brad+Ryan), then stopped to see what this whole Twin Peaks thing was. So happy I did that. Can't wait for it to finally get to PS3.

[Criminal Upper]

More emotionally involving than most AAA franchises.

[∀ Narayan]

More emotionally involving than most AAA franchises.

Agreed 100%. An amazing game, no doubt.

[salromano]

I asked Rising Star Games' prezzy about it back in April.

Does it have anything to do with the Deadly Premonition director’s cut for PlayStation 3? That was Wada-san back at the Game Developers Conference. Yeah, I’m going to have to plead the fifth on that. Just give us a little time on that, we’re working on a couple things with those guys. But we’re not in a position where we can confirm anything yet.

Except the best story and characters in video games.

let's. not go. . . crazy

[Quikies83]

I finished this game on 360 and loved it. I've since started up Twin Peaks on netflix (first time watching) -- This game clearly drew a lot of inspiration from this series, wouldn't you all agree?

edit: just read two posts up.. so apparently this is well known.... ah well

[bjork]

All threads about this game should be required to have Life is Beautiful linked in the OP http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OUP_Z3iZPs

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Shit game?

Whatever. I think it's one of the few games worth a damn that was produced this generation.

[Lion Heart]

Because Ignition had mercy on PS3 users.

[cuyahoga]

Didn't SCEA apparently turn down the original version? What was the deal with that? Particularly when they approve stuff like Vampire Rain and Rogue Warrior.

[∀ Narayan]

It is.

[LeadProtagonist]

Really hope it comes out. One of the few games I'm sad I don't have a 360 for.

[ThoseDeafMutes]

This has to be one of the most socially overrated games of all time.

Me and my buddy were playing it at his place a while back. His dad walked in the room and started commenting on how crap it looked. It was during one of the cutscenes at the diner early in the game. Old man just didn't comprehend how we could enjoy something because it's bad.

[Harlock]

[LiquidSolid]

Wasn't it a delayed port? So they would've required some exclusive content? I've no clue why that stopped a PAL release though, as SCEE doesn't have the same (or any) restrictions.

[cuyahoga]

let's. not go. . . crazy

I don't know if I would say it's the best, but the narrative elements here are certainly in the canon of greatness.

Wasn't it a delayed port? So they would've required some exclusive content? I've no clue why that stopped a PAL release though, as SCEE doesn't have the same (or any) restrictions.

Maybe it was, but I recall reading that Ignition wanted to originally release on both PS3 and 360 and for whatever reason SCEA said no?

[disappeared]

Hopefully it's still on its way. Hell, even a direct-to-PSN release would be great too.

[hwy_61]

Hell, even a direct-to-PSN release would be great too.

Hell to the yes. I would not be opposed to this.

[jetsetfluken]

Whatever the case, I hope the supposed director's cut is titled "Red Seeds Profile"...in all regions.
"Deadly Premonition" is a forgettable, cliche title and the unique nature of this game deserves a unique, memorable title for all audiences.
