P.T. Doesn't Want You To Pause, If You Do Prepare Yourself

P.T was already one of the most anticipated horor games to release and if you want some proof of it's capacity to scare you just pause the game. Twitch user CryoSphereD pauses the Silent Hills demo in order to take a break and interact with her viewers. But after two minutes the break was over and P.T killed her anyway. Watch the video below and make sure never to pause P.T....... ever.

Poor girl lol. Lesson learned. Kojima seriously gonna make Silent hills a horror masterpiece.

amiga-man3403d ago (Edited 3403d ago )

I love watching people stream this game, it can literally scare the hell out of them, one guy was almost in tears too scared to turn around lol.

Anyone who hasn't given this free demo a go really should (dont spoil it by looking at footage before though)

bmf73643403d ago

I have watched let's plays of it, played it, and was still scared shitless

marloc_x3403d ago

Not breaking the immersion while navigating menus really puts an edge into gameplay..

;)

nveenio3403d ago

With that cat, she seems like someone Family Guy would make fun of.

morganfell3403d ago

If you go back and look when the demo was announced, people rushed to get it. The earliest downloaders began streaming Live From PlayStion.

In the history of Neogaf, I have never seen so many remarks of:

"Nope. Not getting it."

"No way, I need to be able to sleep."

"No thanks, I don't need to age prematurely."

And quite a few other comments by people that after watching the streams were too scared to even download the demo. It is a testament to the genius of the design. And it isn't just the larger pulse pounding moments but rather much of the atmosphere is created by the small instances where little to nothing has changed or is occuring.

Rather than constantly hammering you with scare scare scare, it is the sheer tension that elevates this title.

UKmilitia3402d ago

i couldnt play it,i was scared straight away,went through it part way and the crying in the fridge is enough for me.

It's pretty cool but sometimes I just need to pause, cause of work/wife/kids/friends. I'd get really mad if my session goes to waste like this.

DarkOcelet3403d ago

You dont really die btw. You just keep going. Offcourse if that mechanic is in the game, i wonder how he will pull it off. And will he take Shattered memories route with no weapons just running and hiding or will we kill monsters and the most obvious question is it 3rd person of 1st person. My guess outdoors are third person, indoors are first person.

ziggurcat3403d ago

@ballseye

you'll make any desperate excuse you can make in order to downplay something playstation-related, eh?

you don't lose any real progress, so don't worry yourself - not that you'll ever even bother playing this teaser anyway... and it's just a teaser, it's not even a full demo, and probably nothing close to what the final version of the full game is going to be like.

Ryan7413402d ago

That's a valid point but you are unusual in that regard as most PlayStation gamers have none of these things you mentioned.

Muzikguy3403d ago

This demo really is cool! I haven't been able to figure it out yet lol. I can't wait for the full game. As for this pause thing, I found out about it already by going to the bathroom and grabbing some food and a beer. Awesome way to promote if you ask me!

DarkOcelet3403d ago

There is literally over a thousand youtube walkthrough on how to finish the demo unless your are trying to do it without any help. All i can say is good luck.

NuggetsOfGod3403d ago

I hope it works with oculus rift or osvr!

poor_cus_of_games3402d ago

More likely with project morpheus since its ps4 exclusive.

NuggetsOfGod3402d ago (Edited 3402d ago )

I ment silent hill! This is just concept demo.

If mgs and hellblade, no mans, sf5 is coming to pc I am kinda sure silent hill comes to pc.

Unless sony is funding it?

I want this at 1440p 60fps VR! Whatever it costs..

For me that is how to celebrate the return of real horror!

Azzanation3403d ago

Great jump scare however its quite stupid. Not being able to pause because of an unexpected call or bathroom is bad game design in my opinion.

madmonkey013403d ago

that is cool. i will try it later to see if it happens every time

PoSTedUP3403d ago

damn... that scare woulda killed me.

Geekman3403d ago

I didn't even flinch. My friends are right, I do have no fear.

What is wrong with me?

HammadTheBeast3403d ago

I'd suggest watching After Earth, it has a no-fear concept, although the terribleness of the movie might just make you afraid of it.

SavageKuma3403d ago

damn....oh that caught me off guard lol.

BigBosss3403d ago

I was playing this at my mates house for NYE with couple of friends and a girl and man o man the guy who was playing it was scared shitless haha! Can't wait to hear more about this game

The Complete Ranking of Silent Hill Games from Worst to Best

The sirens are sounding again, beckoning you back to the foggy ghost town as we rank all the Silent Hill games, from the chilling classics to the misguided missteps.

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.

bfrye26193d 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_drake192d 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.

CrimsonWing69192d ago

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

bfrye26191d 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?

MrBaskerville566d 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.

MIDGETonSTILTS17566d ago

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

Relientk77583d ago

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

SullysCigar583d ago

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

EvertonFC583d ago

Worth some money online with PT installed

Gamingsince1981582d 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.

CaptainHenry916583d ago (Edited 583d ago )

Visage copied this demo big time

Neonridr583d ago (Edited 583d 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.

Venoxn4g583d ago

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

mark_loprototype583d 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_drake583d ago

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

Elda583d 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.
