Deadly Premonition was one of the most polarizing games of this generation, and while some mainstream sites panned it, the game developed a healthy and well-deserved cult following. Now Rising Star Games has just put the finishing touches on their Director's Cut, which fixes many of the issues critics had with the game, particularly graphics and controls. There's a completely new control scheme and the ability to remap them to a custom setup. The game gas also received a complete graphical overhaul with new HD textures. Fans will also have access to new DLC, and there's a new scenario included on the disc as well. Check the press release for more details, and the preorder bonuses available on Amazon and Gamestop.
