Silent Hills - Pack it up boys. Show's over.

[Wolfy]

I'm sorry, this is pretty much a spoiler now but I had to because awwww yissss.

Hideo Kojima and Guillermo Del Toro doing a Silent Hill game or something. Either a game each or both doing just the one ("Silent Hills" innit). I dunno. I just got excited by the music in the trailer. ¬_¬



Anyway. Oooooh.

[eVoL]

Is that Norman Reedus? Looking forward to trying the demo so much!

[Wolfy]

I think I'm just a huge baby, but PT is scary. Very scary.

I'm pausing every couple of seconds. -_-

[Wolfy]

I'm really struggling here.

[Wolfy]

PT = "Playable Teaser"!

[Papa Lazarou]

I could barely watch someone else play it on a stream! Far too much for me. Nope nope nope.

[eVoL]

Cracking atmosphere for the first 15mins which falls apart when the really obtuse goals let you see behind the curtain with how audio/visual cues are linked. I'm sure that this is intentional for the teaser so you really have to work for the final reveal.

Also, HATE the game press! When I seen it in the conference I was real interested in playing it but before I could even queue it for download the SH "twist" was plastered all over front pages of sites. I would have lost my shit if I got to the final reveal knowing nothing about it but instead it was a bit of a damp squib. Maybe it's not a big thing but in my mind that's equal to spoiling the end of a movie. That stealth teaser was a great way of pushing this out.

I got stuck on the "look behind you" bit. Initially, I said "fuck that" and walked everywhere backwards, but then I was like "where the fuck do you want me to look behind me?".

I noticed you could see her shadow next to the clock but I couldn't trigger anything. So due to a mixture of big-babiness and thickness, I gave up.

>_>

I think that's when you go to the photo near the front door and press x. It took me an age to work out R3 to look in crying baby room.

Has Akira been confirmed for this yet? Damn hope so!

[Wolfy]

I don't think he will be. I remember someone said that in the SH trailer it mentions a composer in the creditsy bit who usually works with that Harry Gregson-Williams fella, so it's most likely that dude.

[eVoL]

Also, PT gave me a massive The Room vibe, sorry Wolfy

[Wolfy]

Knowing you, you probably liked The Room because you're mental. ¬_¬

<3

[eVoL]

Not so much the repetition but I love the room parts so much. It did clostrophobia so damn well. I do t think is deserves the derision aimed at it. Especially with what came after...

[Wolfy]

PT being removed from PSN and it's looking like Silent Hills is cancelled.

Konami, eh?

[eVoL]

Was pretty much a given since Koji went out for a walk. Now we just have to wait till they sell off their IPs and get out of the videogame side of things. How can the company that has Silent Hill, Castlevania, Metal Gear Solid and Rock Revolution can be so shit I dont know.....
