Finally remembered to sign up and did so, so yeah, waiting on the game to start now I guess. Did anyone look into the twitter accounts to see if they seemed significant?

I think there's a bot searching for specific words on twitter and posting them on the page. Or something. I'm not sure the actual accounts are relevant. They seem pretty random.

I can't wait for this game. Consider me signed up.

Also, is anybody in a position to check out what the t-shirt code on home unlocks. It says: "who knows what doors it will open..."

There is some speculation that the t-shirt will grant access past the doors in "Presentation Podium".

Is Heavy Rain About To Go Home?

Luke, do you have a link to what the t-shirt looks like? I can't find the code.

I did some snooping on the site and found the json (basically a huge array) of all the twitter messages that pop up. The array contains two sets of items: the twitter messages (about 800) and an array called "anagram." The anagram only has 12 twitter messages and 12 letters. I converted both lists to text files and attached them.

The twitter anagram is pretty short so I'll put it in the message also:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Author Word Letter
drikp (Adriana Passos) consequence c
Vollwichtig (Dan Brown) die d
GuyThurston (Guy Thurston) failure e
elisabeth_26sm (Michael Schaefer) dead e
PiperHighlander (Warren) family f
whizkidd (Rahul Srinivas) father f
aquagirl01213 (Ivans wenda) love l
suarsanubari (suar sanubari) son o
tweedtart (izzah nm) responsibility p
adoptfoster (Adopt Foster) rescue r
gani_leo (Ganesh Prasad) save s
abhi_24_88 (abhishek kumar) trial c



I think this may anagram to :

PERFECT FOLDS



Also, here is the original json if anyone is interested:

The article I just linked to has a good picture of the t-shirt. link
The picture is from the EU playstation blog. link

Also, the facebook page says that the t-shirt codes aren't available to US players yet. link to official facebook page
Quote:
Home t-shirt – EU only
For technical reasons, only EU users will receive a voucher code for the Home t-shirt when registering. US users will have their own opportunity to get hold of the item and they can still take part in 'Four Days'

Looked around on twitter and found this. No idea if its connected though.

It could just be a fan who made it or something.

Jabroni, that solution to the anagram seems like a pretty logical one, seeing as we're talking about Origami. Good Job.

Does it bug anyone else that this game keeps telling you "This is a game" all over the place? Confused

Nice find! Here is a direct link to the background image which has some interesting things on it. I guess this is the killer's twitter page?
