IGN's never exactly been great, but it seems like they've taken a nosedive recently. Embarrassing for them.
Well they have a history of falling for silly rumours regarding Konami games.

IGN's never exactly been great, but it seems like they've taken a nosedive recently. Embarrassing for them.
How did IGN even believe this rumor?
No shitHave to wonder how many more "no shit" posts we need before this thread runs its course.
Well, I don't see how it's better for the PT players who'd have to get another system for it. Kinda like it would have been the same whether REmake was done or not at the time, as it took 13 years for many to get to play the game.

Whatever you say Phil
That would have been huge for Microfosoft.
I wouldn't be surprised if Phil Spencer was lying and Silent Hills is revealed at their conference as a timed exclusive or something.
I'm calling it.
What if it was true and Phil is just waiting for E3?..... hmmm..
How many times have we heard the "not true" about rumors from ms but they come out to be true. Most recent one is the kinectless xbone.
I highly doubt ms would pay "billions" for silent hills. It's is not that popular of franchise.
Could easily be one of those "No it's not true" things, then E3 comes around and BAM! Silent Hills announcement.
Though I'm not sure why someone would spend a lot for a Silent Hill game instead of making your own. Hasn't been good for some time.

Lol. You need help seriouslyWhatever you say Phil
Now that's just plain silly. Nobody is forcing anyone to buy another system.Well, I don't see how it's better for the PT players who'd have to get another system for it.
Dat brand loyalty. :O
Dat dislike of having to buy expensive hardware for a single software, and want for multiplatform titles to stay available for multiple platforms.
Was it even confirmed to be a multiplatform?Dat dislike of having to buy expensive hardware for a single software, and want for multiplatform titles to stay available for multiple platforms.

What is your stance on Shenmue 3? Would it be better that the game would not exist at all - than the scenario that Sony would publish/fund the third sequal?
It's MS, they would rather pay a billion for a timed exclusive, no commitment you see.So MS didn't want to pay a billion for the franchise?
Who would have thought???
Who said it was multi-platform to begin with?
There was a SIlent Hills rumor?
I think it was assumed SH would have been released on multiple systems due to the series' history.
Tbh I would completely ignore lastgen as an indicator of how things will be with everything.It was more of a general comment about multiplatforms turning to exclusives, but I think it was assumed SH would have been released on multiple systems due to the series' history.
Not even Freud can help here.Lol. You need help seriously

A lot of would be exclusives for the PS3 that went multi would have stayed exclusive if PS3 took off the way PS2 did and PS4 has.
I expect most games staying multiplatform now but some will go exclusive again, in fact some have haven't they?
It's amazing how you prefer Silent Hills to not release at all than releasing on a non Sony platform...wow. But this shouldn't surprise me considering your reaction when REmake was announced for PS4.
Also single software? really? I've seen you listing every last piece of software on various PS4 related threads and you couldn't find more than one game to play on GC, Wii and now the Xbone? lol.
No shit.
Edit: It's sad that there were major publications (*cough* IGN, Shacknews *cough*) completely gullible enough to think that there was even a hint of legitimacy in the rumor, thus reporting on it.
What's with the attacks against IGN? They did not start it, they just referenced the youtube video. They said it was very hard to believe, they tried to get comments from both Microsoft and Konami, they offered comparison with other recent IP/studio purchases.
they pretty much dismissed it in the video but still covered it because of the click bait hits.

People join t want an excuse to blame ign. Several major gaming and ps sites were commenting on the rumors and pointed out how ridiculous it was
