People who (SSSHHHAAUNN) pre-ordered Heavy Rain already got their hands on the (JASONNNNN) first Heavy Rain DLC, "The Taxidermist." Now the DLC will be made available for (SSHHAAUUUNNN) all starting on April 1. The new content will be going for (JAASSOONNNNN) $4.99.
"The Taxidermist" is a prequel and stars Madison Paige as (SSHHHAUUNNN) she follows a lead looking into (JAASOONNN) the Origami Killer. Check out the (SSSSHHAUN) new trailer above and be sure to check back later today as we have a review going up for "The Taxidermist" DLC.
Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

I liked Heavy Rain, but I would advise against this DLC. Its real short and doesn't actually add anything. And the voice acting for Madison is split between the original actress and another one, which is no big deal, but the slight difference gets kind of eerie. There are 5 different endings, but the endings is a newspaper headline.
I actually liked the way they utilized the gameplay though, if this was included in the game itself, it might be one of the better chapters, however, on its own, its meh. Perhaps worth the pre-order, but just wasn't enough for me to think it warrants its own DLC. Perhaps if they packaged this with another scene it would be worth it.
I agree with teke367 100%. Not sure it's worth just under 10% of the entire games total price for how short it is. I got it free with pre-order so it doesn't bother me either way.

If it were $2.99, I think that's reasonable.
