I understand everyone was way more amped for MGS but there was SERIOUS love for PT and the news of the cancellation was taken pretty hard around here.

I may have exaggerated using the word "devastating" but it definitely would hurt the feelings of anyone who only owns a PS4. Definitely not the burn of SFV but still a burn.
Pt is not a loss. Just another game to scary for most people to want to play. :camby: If they let micrsoft buy silent hill, they're dead to me. I havnt played a silent hill game since silent hill 2 so fukk um :pacspit:

so nobody cares about a franchise with 9 games, a comic book series, a novel series, and 2 movies...all of which turned profit. its a cult following huh
I see your point...I do agree with calling it a niche or cult franchise though. Silent hill has always lived in the large shadow of resident evil, and to be honest, I only really enjoyed the first 2. All the rest, especially the more recent ones have been laughably horrible.

Aw man come on. Are we acting like there wasnt heart break around the world when everyone found out PT was cancelled? At the first whiff of a rumor of Xbox getting it were throwing it in the bushes? I was amped for pt and crazy amped for silent hills.

I thoroughly doubt the rumor too but don't turn your back on the game just because of Xbox now
Like I said. People were excited because kojima was making it. He is gone.

There is no reason to be excited anymore no matter what platform. The last few SH games were ass.

As I understand it, the rumor would be that MS would buy the Kojima project. Hence the reference of the game being 80% complete which has to be complete bs anyway.

Nobody has cared abput SH since the ps2 days. The games since then have been trash and sold less and less.

The series was pretty much dead.

There is 0 chance it was 80% complete. They didnt even have a release time line.

Kojima is working on mgs. He woulddnt have time to be making sh at the same time.

:russ: You forgot about homecoming and book of memories.
Dont remind me of those disasters fam.

On point though, konami just came out and said theyre pretty much done with console gaming and will focus on mobile.

Kojima was the sole reason a new silent hill was even coming. Now hes gone.


I doubt konami makes anymore console games at all.

Rumor is both very believable and absolute nonsense at the same time:patrice:

On one hand Microsoft has been very aggressive in acquiring 3rd party IP. So its not a stretch to believe they contacted konami when the shyt hit the fan.


On the other hand we know that the game is nowhere near 80% done. According to Kojima and del toro the game wasnt even in serious development yet.

Don't really know what to believe, but E3 is gonna be epic
