Looks interesting, but registering currently just gives me a page cannot be displayed. May be a temporary error, though, so will try again later/tommorow.

The website http://www.heavyrainps3.com/rainisfalling seems to have raindrops that produce text under each word that resembles an email address. Its not but just thought I would point it out.
[edit: let's save spoiler tags for puzzle solves or plot points if someone hasn't read the book or seen the tv/movie. speculation is just that. and a spoiler box with nothing to describe what is under the spoiler is pointless as a spoiler since we have to open to see what you are posting - kona]

They link to twitter accounts. I think they are searching for specific words from peoples posts or something.

Not sure yet. Might be some kind of code or something. But I'm not sure the game has officially started up yet.

The names that appear in the water are active Twitter accounts. Also one of the words that pops up has opiniondujour underneath it. I put it into google and got this page
http://www.facebook.com/pages/OpinionDuJourcom/167946377602?v=info
which also links to this site
http://www.opiniondujour.com/
Both sites have the oragami bird on them although I don't know if this actually means anything as it doesn't start until the 26th.

Ya I mentioned the twitter thing. The part about the website with the oragami bird I think is irrelevant. It seems to be a polling site or something.

For anyone who was wondering, here is the email you recieve upon signing up.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Welcome to Four Days: The Heavy Rain Online Experience.
When the time is right you will embark on a unique series of three live
four-day challenges that will draw you inexorably into the universe of
Heavy Rain.
Be warned, we're stepping into a dark world here. Stay alert at all times.
Anything you see or learn or hear - you may need later. You'll be contacted
via this email throughout the experience, directing you towards different
leads in the investigation.
The first four-day challenge will suck you into the fracturing mind of a
nascent killer. You need to know your prey to catch him. Keep your eyes
open, even as his malign influence starts to impossibly spread... and most
important of all, don't fall under his spell...
The second challenge is where you start helping. Detecting. Protecting.
Collecting and analysing evidence. Using your brain. Building a profile.
Talking to witnesses. Using subtlety, tact, imagination. The killer must be
found. You can be an important part of that. So don't mess up...
The third and final challenge is the endgame. If you've proved your worth,
you'll be propelled to the highest levels of the investigation. But to
succeed, you'll need to re-enter the killer's psyche. Gaze into that abyss
again. You'll need to break all the rules to find your suspect. There are
multiple suspects. Which one is guilty?
Make your decision, and live with the consequences. Because in the end,
it's your call.
The clouds are gathering. The sky is darkening...

I've also been looking forward to this game, and it's been awhile since I've done an alternative reality game.
