Why not bring back the whole team to make a real Silent Hill ?

Whitefox7894703d ago

It would be hard, since Akira Yamaoka (guy who does the soundtrack for all the Silent Hill games) just left Konami and most recently helped Shinj Mikami and Suda51 with Shadows of the damned and is now with Grasshopper Manufacture.

Mary Elizabeth (One of Akira's partners) said she is going to supervise the redone voicework for the HD rereleases of SH2 and 3 however she isn't do any work on Downpour.

Keiichiro Toyama (Director of Silent Hill) lefted Konami and joined SCE Japan Studio to make the Siren series.

Kazuhide Nakazawa (Director of Silent Hill 3) lefted Konami and joined Kojima Productions.

Other key members followed Keiichiro Toyama and joined SCE Japan Studio to make Siren.

So yeah as you can see its complicated....

Yeah KONAMI shouldn't have disbanded Team Silent in the first place...

They were never a team. They were workers who made a game. They worked on games for Konami before and after. Not as a whole. As individuals.

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.

bfrye26201d 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_drake201d 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.

CrimsonWing69200d ago

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

bfrye26200d ago

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