New screens
3 new screens from Gamesyde:

http://www.gamersyde.com/pop_image.html?G=9508&N=2
http://www.gamersyde.com/pop_image.html?G=9508&N=3
The second one looks like a PIP (a la MGS 4) where gameplay and cutscene overlap.
EDIT: I fixed it slider ! ^_^

I think you might need an edit there patsu old boy. Those link to the thumnails. Probably easiest to link to the Gamersyde page (unless you want to host them again).

That first one is getting a bit too Uncanny Valley for me. 
They are "mannequins" but since the guy is a serial killer, and from what I gathered from watching the trailer and Madison's (the female character) reaction upon looking closely at them, I got the impression they'd either be embalmed persons or there would be parts of real persons in them. Some kind of Silence of the Lambs'y situation.
Anyway, this small scene is said not to be part of the story. They said it was made only to demo the game mechanics and supposedly will be available on release. Or they could release it as a demo a little before.
In this case it's more of a PIP a la Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy.
That would explain it, then. It's the back two that were giving me the heebie-jeebies.
Dunno if anyone has noticed this, but I was browsing some thread on NeoGaf about the best skies in videogames.
Anyway take a look at the Heavy Rain motorbike shot on this page:

Now look at the Crusin Wii screenshot on page 4. Weird huh? the skybox is identical (but flipped) and the lights look pretty similar too. :O

Ah, makes sense. It wouldnt have surprised me if it was real tho, seeing as so many companies license the same HDR sky textures.

It's 30 minutes. You might want to have lunch, mow the lawn, take a nap while waiting for the video to download. I only watched part of it so far. It's worth the wait though ^_^
EDIT: I'm still at 50% after 2 hours. Someone in GAF rehosted it here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=V06NA2E3 (downloaded in 10 minutes max)

thought i'll be spending a rougher sunday untill i bumped into this, download starten!
Can't believe there is this sort of dev-walkthrough available and Sony has not already funnelled it to all newssites across the globe. They're not exactly bleeding media attention at the moment, with many of their high class games going by unnoticed AGAIN, such as Pacific Rift.
