on a side note, did anyone else squeal at that moment in the tumbnail?

Acquiescence3527d ago

I never encountered it during my playthrough. And boy am I glad I didn't.

Neixus3527d ago

You probably did, but didn't look close enough.

Remember when the glass / window falls down? That's when you look up on the balcony

Ultraplayerxp3527d ago

Yeah, and I am SO glad I didn't look up.

mogwaii3527d ago

Neither did i but its one of the most freaky of all the images ive seen of the game.

medman3527d ago

@acquiescence
I can only hope Silent Hills is packed with terror and true scares...it's been awhile since I've played some truly fantastic horror.

PLASTICA-MAN3527d ago

Read that at least FIVE times !

LOL_WUT3527d ago

Man when the radio hints to look behind you that was a terryfying ;)

Reefskye3527d ago

I didn't see it first time I played it, when I restarted game with new save I looked up each time I went round to see if she was there.

ThanatosDMC3527d ago

Yeah, never saw it in mine either. Dont know how to it to appear there.

nosferatuzodd3527d ago

damn i mist this I'm going to play this again

Azmatik3526d ago

I actually found this, I heard someone walking upstairs I followed the footsteps, looked up, and that's how I beat the game.

wheatley3527d ago

When did this happen? It completely passed me by...

BISHOP-BRASIL3527d ago

[SPOILER] (does demos need spoiler tags? oh well...)

It's pretty early on the loops... There's a moment you hear (or even see if facing the right direction) a piece of glass shatter on the main hall (by the door that supposedly leads out). If you go to the hall and look up, the ghost is there for a moment.

[/SPOILER]

The thing is, that corner is so dark that many look up and she goes away before they can even notice she's there. You could turn up the gamma or brightness on the TV to see better, but that would ruin the mood of the rest of P.T.

Well ballanced (dark) image settings on your TV, along with a good headset, are what really make this game scary and tense. Playing alone in the dark just adds iceing on the terrifying cake.

cr33ping_death3527d ago

I completely missed her. I looked up after the falling glass but i didn't see her. My gf saw her. Im surprised she didn't scream like the time the ghost got her :)

harrisk9543527d ago

Crap... missed it in the game, but that thumbnail made me jump! I probably would have crapped my pants at that point -- came close a few times!

uth113527d ago

I didn't squeal right at that moment, but after staring at the figure for a couple of seconds, she backs up into the darkness. My reaction then was "oh shit, she could be coming downstairs to get me!" :)

garos823527d ago

i didn't come across crazy b**ch in my playthrough on the balcony but i did see someone else on their Let's Play. It gave me a crazy jump.

Come to think about it i think i ran soon as the glass shattered like the chicken foetus that i am!

DanteVFenris6663527d ago (Edited 3527d ago )

Me too the glass shattered I'm like oh shit, doors open keep on walking don't look. Pretend it didn't happen

TomahawkX3527d ago

ok thanks for the week old news

RebelWAC3527d ago (Edited 3527d ago )

Hey man! Players like me that doesn't use the Internet to solve things exists! but in this case I'm too much of a p***y.

I officially gave up after finding three pieces of a picture and accidently peeked into the bathroom trying to open the door... And yeah I found out that I scream like a girl.

TomahawkX3527d ago

this article talks about the hidden meaning behind the fake studio name 7780 which Kojima revealed during the live gamescom event with Keighley a week ago. The article even gets the facts wrong because 7780 isn't a postal code but the square meter area of the quiet hills region in Japan.

Soldierone3526d ago

I don't understand why you got so many disagrees. Perhaps nobody pays attention to GamesCom because I remember him stating this there too lol

TomahawkX3526d ago

I don't know either, I come to this site for the latest news but when I see crap articles like this with misleading titles I gotta say something. I clicked on the link thinking it was actually a secret in the game, so disappointed.

Kivespussi3526d ago (Edited 3526d ago )

Sooo many disagrees. But you're right. He already revealed it AND on top of it, it's not a postal code but like you said a square miles of the area.

Oh boy, "videogame journalism"

NicSage3527d ago

I could not finish the demo... I'm such a pussy.

Orbilator3527d ago

The last time I felt like this playing a game was the first time in doom 3 were the monster came out of the tunnel.
Doom 3 had awesome audio which really over loaded your senses and so does p.t.

bloodybutcher3527d ago

C'mon, give it a try again. I did quit two times, but finished it in a third sitting, headphones, late night, lights out and all:-)

GW2123527d ago

Haha, I quit twice as well. Same thing, lights off and headphones on. I'll try again tonight. I'm basically at the end I think (red corridor).

ipach3527d ago

word. i mean, i know it's a game. i know it's just sounds and pictures. but dammit. why subject myself to this?? all this dirty depends???

SteamPowered3527d ago

Did anyone else read kojimas twitter post about buying weed off Troy baker? It's worth a looksie.

Rockefellow3527d ago

The one from January? That's older news thanks this P.T. "secret."

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.

bfrye26175d 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!

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?

MrBaskerville549d 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.

MIDGETonSTILTS17549d ago

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

Also explains your childhood.

Relientk77566d ago

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

SullysCigar566d ago

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

EvertonFC566d ago

Worth some money online with PT installed

Gamingsince1981565d 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.

CaptainHenry916566d ago (Edited 566d ago )

Visage copied this demo big time

Neonridr566d ago (Edited 566d 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.

Venoxn4g565d ago

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

mark_loprototype565d 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_drake566d ago

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

Elda566d 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.
