The NZA Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 source Konami reveals new Silent Hill game News Xbox 360 PlayStation 3 News by Robert Purchese Today 13:00 Konami's working with a new developer on a new Silent Hill game for "next-gen consoles", aka PS3 and Xbox 360. The publisher revealed the news at an event in Frankfurt, Germany yesterday - dutifully attended by Eurogamer Germany. No other details were given. Silent Hill: Homecoming was Konami's last original take on the IP and was released in autumn 2008 to a lukewarm reception. Better received was Silent Hill: Shattered Memories on Wii, a re-imagining of the first Silent Hill game from 1999. Shattered Memories received a whopping 9/10 here on Eurogamer but sadly hasn't appealed to the Wii audience in quite the same way. still havent gotten through Shattered Memories, gonna try again soon. Hopeful this is great despite the ongoing absence of Team Silent (i'm told a few of them were on the PS3 Siren). pre-hype! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsmithx Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 It's been all downhill since SH2. I'm guessing more info at e3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share Posted April 9, 2010 3 was awesome. Shattered Memories has its fanbase, but its pretty different. anyway, 3 needs more respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Visitant Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 We've been down this road with me on the Silent Hill thread. Just give Shattered Memories an honest shot is all i can say. Fuck the naysayers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NZA Posted April 10, 2010 Author Share Posted April 10, 2010 right, but...did you read the article? this isnt even all Konami, its a new studio. you might as well be asking Capcom for Suikoden VI, you weird bastard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sexy Hat Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I need to play me some Slient Hills. I saw a copy of SH 1 for $50 and SH 2 for $45. But I still have FF13, BioSock2 and Pokemon Gold to finish first... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 1 looks much better on PSP, or you can try the Wii remake. 2 may be the greatest horror title evar, but thats a lotta money for it, i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sexy Hat Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Yeah the land of Oz is surley a shitty place to be a video game fan/collector. Thinking about getting a PSP Go. Im really temped. I can get a deal with the PSP, $20 PSN card and a 64 Meg memory stick. for about $460. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jables Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 this new job has you literally, getting driven around in a limo laughing with hookers doesn't it? The laws of balance see Kylie & I addicted to crack while you & Meg spend all Frank's money. PSP Go's for suckers. You realise it has no UMD drive therefore Silent Hill would have to on PSN, right? PS- Who the fuck measures things in Megabytes anymore? I know we're backward arsed but c'mon man, we gotta keep up appearances and talk about our awesome 8Gig harddrives in our Apple IIe's.

Mr. Sexy Hat Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Yeah i know it has nooooooooooooo UMD slot, anyway it might come in handy when in 10 years ill be the only person in OZ selling his PSP Go for the price i brought it for. Need I remind you of the $40 boxed Sega Saturn that made me $150 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jables Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I can say with absolute conviction that the PSP go is this generation's Saturn, but I can also guarantee that the single person stupid enough to pay anything for your boxed saturn will be dead from having tried to fuck a lamp socket or something by the time you opt to offload the thing. If you really really feel the need to buy something like this, buy it from the US, it's probably like half the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted April 14, 2010 Author Share Posted April 14, 2010 tragic that this thread has possibly revealed more horrors than the next SH might yet offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C_U_SPACECOWBOY Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 As I've said countless times before, 3 and 4 were both SOLID entries. I enjoyed 3 because it was an unconventional sequel to the first storyline, with it's own stand out moments (jeez that bleeding room...), that didn't totally rehash the first game. The Room holds a special place in my heart, primarily because it didn't have any fucking nurses in it! Silent Hill != Nurses and Rusty Metal I agree, returning to each of the worlds a second time was poor design , but that is seriously my only gripe with the game. Tried different stuff, and hit the nail on the head for most em, in my opinion. SH is one of my most beloved series, and this is not the path I want to see it take: -Konami outsources development to studio X -Studio X basically randomizes the most popular elements of the series, regardless of the contextual significance of said elements, under the auspice of "Honoring the Source material" -Studio X's efforts are met with luke warm reception, as it does nothing to add to the Silent Hill mythos. -Repeat ad nauseum. It's fucking Silent Hill Mad Libs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted April 15, 2010 Author Share Posted April 15, 2010 haha...did you ever finally play Homecoming? i forget. there's rumors this might be a Shattered Memories retake of SH2...i really dont want to see that, at all. tried SM again last night and yup, waggle controls are killing it for me, like with Okami...im dying too much for getting jumped on and not being able to shake them. gonna try this again on PS2. nurses and rusty metal...heh.

Iambaytor Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Don't forget cougar dogs Is the waggle any better with that new more sensitive attachment for the wiimotes? It supposedly works pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted April 17, 2010 Author Share Posted April 17, 2010 i wish it was, thing is - wii motion plus has to be coded into the game itself...meaning, all my older/non-incorporated titles dont get any benefit from it. shame, that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C_U_SPACECOWBOY Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Have you hear the rumors, oh the rumors that the next Silent Hill will be a FPS? ...and that would be the final nail in coffin for Silent Hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 this is what "game journalism" currently looks like: articles like that with no real backing (even it doubts its own source), put up just for hits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
