thanks. i hate it.

[Eonjay]

Actually sounds kind of interesting. Given such limited information, what is it that you are able to hate about it at this point?

[Scissorman82]

1) it looks very generic.
2) it has Silent Hill 2 Syndrome. not every SH game has to be about sins you've committed or inner demons you are battling with. it's lazy, uninspired, and unoriginal.

[maniacmayhem]

I agree with scissorman, seems these SH games borrow heavily from part 2 without realizing or capturing what made part 2 so brilliant in the first place.

More interested in seeing what "Silent Hill f" is but not crazy about how Konami is just letting unknown studios toy around with one of their biggest IPs. They really dropped the ball when they screwed over Kojima and scrapped "Silent Hills". I have a feeling they will never be able to be as good as they used to be.

[Magog]

Go back even further. They screwed up when they made the original silent hill team name their unconnected game silent hill 4 and then canceled the REAL silent hill 4 because what was meant to be a different game didn't meet sales goals.

[KeeseToast]

I actually kind of like them branching out and giving developers creative freedom over the IP.
At the same time I also think they should have a big main title like Silent Hills that actually shows what the franchise is supposed to be and what direction they are taking.
Right now we have a remake and some AA looking games and no one knows what the future of SH is going to be.

[SullysCigar]

So, we still haven't seen Silent Hill: The Short Message, have we? They announced so much in one go - after such a long period of silence - I'm losing track a little here.

[Magog]

I won't write it off yet but doesn't look that unique.

[CrimsonWing69]

Well, this reaffirmed my fear that western devs are going to make Silent Hill games without knowing what Silent Hill games are like.

That monster with the barbed wire looked like something from a Clive Barker game and the fat monster chasing you… ugh.

It’s not about the jump scares. Silent Hill is the atmosphere, the abstract, making you uncomfortable through sound, messing with your expectations. Yea the sound of your radio being static and barely being able to see the enemies is unnerving, but c’mon, Silent Hill isn’t whatever this game was showing. Hell, if I didn’t know it wasn’t a Silent Hill game? I’d have never guessed.

Man, it’s going to be on the level of Homecoming and Downpour… great.

[specialguest]

This does not feel or look like a Silent Hill game. The style looks like a typical western developed horror game with the Silent Hill name branded on it

[cammers1995]

Getting downpour and homecoming vibes

[maniacmayhem]

A multiplayer Silent Hill? This doesn't look anything like SH, only the name

[gold_drake]

"interactive streaming games" aint something that id call fun.
