Sony declines to confirm Heavy Rain date

Are retailers lying about late February?

Sony's told Eurogamer that a release date for Heavy Rain remains unconfirmed, despite numerous retailers - including those with Special Edition deals - backing 26th February as the PS3 game's UK arrival.

HMV started the ball rolling, listing a Limited Edition that comes complete with fancy slipcase and vouchers to download a Heavy Rain PS3 Theme and Heavy Rain sountrack - "Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head"?

ShopTo, Amazon and Play all also back the 26th February date which, under two months away, now seems undeniable.

Heavy Rain was passed for sale in the UK by the BBFC yesterday, gaining less-strict 15 rating for "strong language, violence and sex".
