Silent Hill 8 to be more traditional

Silent Hill 8 will be more in harmony with earlier games in the franchise, a new interview between Zive and Vatra Games boss Matthew Seymour has revealed. Rather than an action-oriented title like Silent Hill: Homecoming, the team is focusing more of a psychological horror title, with their main inspiration being Silent Hill 2.

About freaking time horror genre is actually horror. Haven't played a spooky game in years, last one was Siren: Blood Curse

Not some TPS with Zombies on dirtbikes with rocket launchers

Natsu X FairyTail4944d ago

Dead Space was kinda spooky IMO.

mantisimo4944d ago

....is a great game and after playing 2 at Eurogamer that looks very very good too.

Back OT this is the best news about the Hill series for a long long time none of the others have been as good as the 1st 3 games in the series, very welcome news indeed.

DigitalAnalog4944d ago (Edited 4944d ago )

Then you better f*cking remove that Silent Hill "Peeling-into-otherworld& amp; quot; effect used at the movie (or SH: Homecoming). It was tasteless, and it doesn't feel like a proper transition utilized in Silent Hill.

-End statement

Silent Hill :) Bring it on!!

Solid_Snakeps34944d ago

oh shiiit... Silent Hill in full HD, on my big telly at night... too much...

ThanatosDMC4944d ago

The last Silent Hill was retarded... you could actually look for monsters to kill with a knife and kill them all without taking damage because of the ducking and dodge roll ability.

Only time i had to use a gun or rifle was the boss fights especially the last boss. Silent Hill became pretty lame IMO.

I wish there would be a Kojima-directed SIlent Hill in the future.....

Im still waiting for a Dino Crisis game. The first one scared the bejesus outta me, an I played it last year!

DarkRayneRules4944d ago

Yeah I could got for another Dino Crisis game. A good survival horror sequel to 2 could be great. :D One can dream.

VsAssassin4944d ago

turns out to be what Alan Wake should've been, that means, if this game will allow you to roam the town pretty much how SH1 and SH2 allowed you to, then this is a looker. Anyway, I'm a fan, so no matter what this will be a day one buy for me.

I just want to be scared again; is that too much to ask?

galgor4944d ago

Haven't bothered with the silent hill series in years, but this ones looking rather good. Let's just hope they don't **** it up!

I mostly disagree with Downpour's position. Yeah, the game is not amazing by any stretch of the imagination but is much better than the HD Collection and Homecoming. The main issue is the performance, but that was mitigated by the patches, especially on the PS3. Personally, I put it a little behind Origins and The Room.

Having Restless Dreams as a different entry from Silent Hill 2 is also a choice.

bfrye26176d ago

Normally, we would not consider it a different game (Restless Dreams), but since it had a very different critical reception and had new content, it was allowed. As for Downpour, I would agree, but since that one is subjective, we let him make his case for the placement.

gold_drake175d ago

silent hill 2 is definitely the best one out of those.

for me personally, the whole ritual/cult stuff was always so weird to me in all the other games.

CrimsonWing69175d ago

No disrespect but I put SH2 over 1. 1 is fantastic, but 2 took it all up a level.

bfrye26174d ago

We agree, that is why the writer put it in top place!
