Japanese Heavy Rain box art revealed
The Japanese box art for Heavy Rain has been revealed over on Amazon Japan, and you can see it in full below the break.
Shows a man floating in the water (via AllGamesBeta). Rain pouring on him. Very psychological, huh?
American box art for the game was met with some disdain from the public, so much so, that Sony revealed it would allow users to download the EU art in order to replace the offending image.
Why it wasn’t as simple and elegant as the origami-focused one in the first place, is anyone’s guess.
Game’s out February 23, 24 and 26 in the US, Europe and UK respectively.

Should have been the origami bird floating, but I like it.

I don’t know which logo looks better, the original one or the one EU are using.

Why would you lay down in a puddle of water anyway?
