"TGL caught up with Troy Baker for an interview about the forthcoming HD re-release of Silent Hill 2, a game that sees Troy re-voice protagonist James Sunderland. Troy tells TGL about how he first got involved in the project and what he makes of the controversy that surrounds the voice changes."
Explore Silent Hill and immerse yourself in psychological horror like never before.
SILENT HILL 2 is available October 8, 2024 on PS5.
Mark my words, the 3d Spatial Audio will be best in class I reckon on this. They showed they were up to the task with Blair Witch. I think this will beat Returnal.
Konami has mentioned that they have replaced and remapped enemies to new locations to give players aa "fresh take on combat."
Shouldn't y'all have remade the first then? Or is series like MGS and 2 canonically the first game?
Silent Hill 2 remake length is 16-18 hours, 20 for completionists. All classical endings confirmed, as some gameplay changes are explained.
I cant wait.
"In my restless dreams,
I see that town.
Silent Hill.
You promised me you'd take me
there again someday.
But you never did.
Well, I'm alone there now...
In our 'special place'...
Waiting for you..."
I’ve never gotten the UFO ending lol. Maybe with a lil’ save scumming I’ll finally get around to it?
LOL
"why the new voices remain loyal to the Silent Hill 2 experience"
The guy actually thinks this....wow, has he heard the video comparison between the original and the HD remake, the voices are terriable. Not because they are new voice actors and we "can't get used to them" but they are actually horriable to listen to. It sounds like theres no emotion or hardwork been put into it.
i really had to laugh at this new VA lmao.
this horrible voice acting is totally ruining the experience (for me that is). BUT honestly i couldnt care less.
i have the original -> win!
I second the LOL.
For the most part I assume that the majority of people who would be interested in a Silent Hill HD collection are those who have played the originals. As a long time fan of 1,2,3 and yes, even part 4 this was the collection above all collections I was waiting for.
I was dissapointed as many others to find out there would be new voice work but got over it quickly, waiting to see how it turned out. But I have to agree with chidori666, the new actors are awful and since Silent Hill is truly an experience that's a deal breaker.
Looking at my shelf of the first four parts of the series I am happy to play those again in the future and skip the HD "collection" all together. Konami really messed this up big time.
i think the guy did a decent job, but overall the voice acting is crappy just like the original.
"So it’s not that Konami wasn’t willing to pay them, he (Guy) wanted residuals, he wanted non-existent money that he felt that he was owed. So Konami has no fault in this whatsoever. And they wanted to use him again. Guy was the one who was outspoken about it and said that unless this happens he wouldn’t do it, so he forced Konami’s hands. So if anybody wants to blame anybody for why they chose new voices, they can go back to the original James and he’s the one to blame."
