Heavy Rain is officially out in North America and is rolling out across Europe throughout the week, but not all is well with the highly anticipated title.

Not only does God of War III have no hard drive installation, a tweet from Christer Ericson, the Director of Technology at Sony Santa Monica Studio, also states that the game has “seamless loading” and over 10 hours of “play uninterrupted by load screens.” This is an amazing feat considering that all the data will be loaded from the disc, which will contain over 35GB of game data.
