PS4’s Silent Hills P.T. Demo Downloaded 1+ Million Times

PT, the PlayStation 4’s demo for the upcoming Silent Hill game first revealed at Gamescom, has been downloaded over a million times, Sony revealed at its pre-TGS press conference.

Jdoki3518d ago (Edited 3518d ago )

It's on the UK PS Store. It's a bit tricky to find (I don't think it comes up in a search).

I think I had to hunt it down in the Demos section. It's just listed as P.T. - no mention of Silent Hills.

WitWolfy3518d ago

I can confirm this, just search P.T in the search bar.

RosweeSon3518d ago

Ah thank you so much, yeah couldn't find it through searching so just presumed it was a US exclusive, but thanks very much I'll go have a look around, I wouldn't mind checking it out at least, even if the full game is way off no doubt ;)

Sharingan_no_Kakashi3518d ago

3 of those were me deleting it half way through.... lol

Sharingan_no_Kakashi3517d ago

The first time I played it I got so creeped out I deleted it. Second time as well....

sikandar2013518d ago

I'm super excited for this game! Demo was awesome... loved it!

DeadlyOreo3518d ago

To be fair I downloaded it twice. Scared the crap out of me so much the first time I deleted it off my hard drive, had to re-download.

GTgamer3518d ago

Hmmmmm Sony announcing how much P.T. was downloaded makes me think Silents hills might be a PSexclusive ಠ_ಠ

sikandar2013518d ago (Edited 3518d ago )

yeah me too think So....
but there isn't any single platform announced yet.. so we might see it as multi-platform.

GTgamer3518d ago

@sikander
So true let's wait and see

HanzoHattori3518d ago

No surprise here. This demo was one of PS4's best this year.

kingvendrick3518d ago (Edited 3518d ago )

@Roswee, its on the PS store under demos, or it was.

1+ million crikey thats a helluva lot of soiled underwear lol.

Ninver3518d ago (Edited 3518d ago )

In today's news: underwear sales skyrocket due to PT demo

RosweeSon3518d ago (Edited 3518d ago )

Thanks buddy ;) so it is haha thanks people I guess I should have just looked under demos instead of using the search ;) well they can make that 1,000,001 now ;) think I'll wait for this evening to check it out, nice and dark.

kingvendrick3518d ago

Nice one, enjoy. Playing in the dark, braver man than me lol.

Ninver3518d ago

One can only imagine how well the full retail game will sell. The ps install base will be more than doubled.

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_drake176d 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.

CrimsonWing69176d ago

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

bfrye26175d ago

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

Dataminer gets PT playable on a PlayStation 5 via hacked emulator

From Eurogamer: "Konami horror project P.T. has been made playable on a PlayStation 5, via a hacked PS4 emulator.

Streamer and dataminer Lance McDonald has managed to get the game working on a non-jailbroken PS5 console.

Essentially, a legitimate copy of P.T. is required as well as an active PSN account on both a jailbroken PS5 and a normal, fully updated PS5. The emulator is then transferred from one to the other."

Hopefully the October 19 Silent Hill announcement makes it so that I don’t need to fret with eBay and all of this emulator nonsense to enjoy a 10 minutes demo for Halloween….

How does Konami not appreciate how much they spite their face when they tarnish Kojima’a legacy?

MrBaskerville550d ago

While we'll surely get several SH projects in the coming years, expecting anything related to P.T. is setting yourself up for dissapointment. Sadly.

MIDGETonSTILTS17550d ago

Yeah I get the sense that Kojima might’ve literally shat on his boss’ desk before leaving

Also explains your childhood.

Relientk77567d ago

Still one of the scariest gaming experiences I've ever played, and it was only a demo. Might even be the scariest.

SullysCigar567d ago

I can't seem to part with my old PS4 because this is installed! It's freaky as hell, even now.

EvertonFC567d ago

Worth some money online with PT installed

Gamingsince1981566d ago

@evertonfc

Thats a bit strange considering you can download it from torrent sites and install on a ps4 , its pretty easy to get the demo.

CaptainHenry916567d ago (Edited 567d ago )

Visage copied this demo big time

Neonridr567d ago (Edited 567d ago )

Visage was a great game though. Got a little weak towards the last chapter, but the first 2 chapters were particularly amazing. I'm glad we got at least one game that utilized the potential of the PT Demo.

Venoxn4g566d ago

I heard that Madison game was great too.. plus hopefully we will still see the release of Allison Road.

mark_loprototype566d ago

Oh, absolutely. Many supernatural indie horror games that released in the past 7 years wouldn't exist without P.T.

I even question if you'd have games like Phasmophobia, as P.T. kind of let devs know that the broader gaming community was receptive to slow-paced, atmospheric horror and enjoyed sharing that experience (for P.T., it was over YouTube/Twitch).

gold_drake567d ago

this game.. damn.
i shit my briefs when i played it haha. but its sooo good. or was.

Elda567d ago

A great game demo. The demo didn't scare me while playing but it definitely had a creep factor. The part I thought was somewhat creepy was the radio broadcaster reports of the murders that took place in the house.
