Hopefully this will push Capcom into announcing something new.
I hope so because im not buying anything like RE6 ever again.
Hopefully this will push Capcom into announcing something new.
The only info we have is from the end of the teaser. No actual press release from Konami has been issued.
Yeah its stange nothing has been said yet.

When The Phantom Pain was found out to be MGS they didn't say anything for a while.
Well I'm sure something will be mentioned on that stream with Kojima and Keighley.
I just thought, the chances of Steam versions of previous Silent Hill games have gone up a bit.
Has it been confirmed that this game is exclusive and being published by Sony?
Just playing Devil's Advocate here, but why are Reedus and Del Toro even involved?
Isn't this the type of bloat that gets these AAA publishers in trouble? Other than marketing, I don't see what Reedus adds to the product. Historical precedent would lead me to believe that a professional voice actor would lend a better performance anyways.
Somebody else may have already came up with this theory, but I'll post it anyway just in case.
What if Silent HillS is hinting at multiplayer? And to further the theory, part of the trailer says, and I'm paraphrasing because I'm at work, but I think it basically says, "I'm the only me, are you sure you're the only you?" So maybe it will have some Souls-esque invasions? Or maybe you'll see other players seamlessly and freak you the eff out?
I'm excited, either way.

That would actually be kinda cool.. And if Silent Hill 2 is anything to go by, peoples nightmares overlapping would be pretty huge.
But... I would rather just have my OWN experience without any kind of multiplayer interaction.

Del Toro a bad writter? What?
Have you seen Pans Labrynth, Espinazo del Diablo, Cronos, even Hellboy?
Pans Labrynth is a masterpiece.
Decent film? In what world do you live in where that's only a decent film? Personal opinion aside look at the critical reception.1 great film (Hellboy) and 1 decent film (Pan).
Del Toro is a fucking amazing creature designer, and given that he's a great writer too I'm sure his creature design will have a great subliminal meaning and back story for their design.

Pan has stellar art direction, and that is a key trait that del Toro excels in. Look at the accolades for that film, most--if not all are for the art or makeup or cinematography. No one fucking praises Pan for it's writing.
del Toro is a great fit for SH in regards to monster design. Environment design? .....maybe not. Which is what I fear the most will be botched. Writing? Kojima and Del Toro together? Disaster.

Considering we've yet to see how the two work together outside of PT (which even then, we don't know the extent of their input), I wouldn't say it's fair to outright say the two collaborating will be a disaster.
I think Kojima has done a great job at proving that he can mess with you psychologically. The PT demo also shows that IMO.
1 great film (Hellboy) and 1 decent film (Pan) amist a catalogue of poorly written flicks. Blade II and Mimic being huge stinkers.
If we follow the logic from the Tomb Raider thread, if this was a Sony exclusive they'd be shouting it from the mountaintops.

Kojima + Guillermo del torro + Norman reedus
And I've always wanted to try a silent hill game
That is what I am hoping for as well, but trying not to get my hopes up.OMFG YESSSSSSSS !!! CANT CONTAIN THE HYPE!!! PLEASE TELL ME AKIRA YAMAOKA IS DOING THE OST PLEASEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! *hyperventilates*
I assume you're not being literal because plenty of reviews praise the writing and the directing. If being pretty was everything that was needed for good critical reception then Moms Needs Mars would be an Academy award winner.Pan has stellar art direction, and that is a key trait that del Toro excels in.

I worked through this for about two hours last night. Absolutely one of the creepiest experiences I've ever had in this medium.
I did not 'complete' it. I think I'll try again tonight.
I never gotI was getting way too mind-fucked and had to go to bed.the second baby laugh, nor the phone ringing.
But yeah... overall I love it.
For me there was just such a great feeling of isolation, dread, and confusion- three things I'd relate to the best of the SH series. Sure, this might have absolutely nothing to do with Silent Hills when it's all said and done, but the atmosphere was there for me.
Yes, there were some generic horror ideas here and there, but the way this whole little 'experience' was crafted actually gives me a lot of hope for whatever Kojima/Del Toro might be cooking up.
I also trust Kojima might try to pull in Yamaoka and Ito. Anyone that knows Silent Hill knows those two individuals are crucial. My only concern with Del Toro is that he might try just handling all creature aspects himself. That's fine, as he's great at that, but Ito's work is an absolute clear visual representation of Silent Hill. An artistic collaboration between Del Toro and Ito... my god... I honestly can't even imagine.
It would be nice to see other missing-in-action members of Team Silent drawn back in; guys like Imamura, Owaku, Tsuboyama, etc... but I'm not holding my breath. I'd really just be happy with Yamaoka at this point.
Anyway- I love everything about this. Great reveal, great mystery, neat experience all around. Hopefully we hear more soon.

So is this exclusive or not? I hate when companies are ambiguous.
past history and experience with these two gives me no hope.

My post on the status of former Team Silent members from the other thread in case anyone's interested:
I barely remember any dialogue from the SH games, but the environments and enemies? Absolutely. Why is everyone hung up on the writing?? Do you think he'll mess up the line: "There was a hole here, but it's gone now."
