I knew it was inevitable... but....

Silent Hill was really special to me. It was more than a game; it was an experience. It had a message. It moved me and made me think like few franchises ever before or since.

If video games are art, then Silent Hill 2 is its Mona Lisa.

... I knew this would happen and yet...

... I'm not even angry. I'm just horribly, miserably, completely sad about it.

"In my restless dreams... I see that town... Silent Hill..."

 

[Kaako]

Surely El Torro is working on this with Hideki Kajima. Can't wait!

 

[Loakum]

This is the future of Konami....and it's not pretty.

 

[DNAbro]

I think Konami misunderstood when people would pay lots of money to play Silent Hill.

Spoiler

Fuck Konami

[-Horizon-]

erotic horror.

There's a doujin about that.

Or so I've heard.

>.>

 

[DryvBy]

Silent Hills canned so they could bring you this.

 

[Ryouji Gunblade]

[ElRenoRaven]

Yea what more can you say but Fuck Konami. They really are a fucking joke now.

 

[CoyoteSpitfire]

Is this actually surprising to anyone?

Fuck Konami.

[Rymuth]

Bwahahahahhahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaauuughhhhhhh *sob*

 

[kmax]

Well, what can I say other than; expect more of this kind of stuff from now on.

From AAA to Pachinko.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Fox Engine putting in work.

 

[RecursiveFault]

There's a doujin about that.

Or so I've heard.

That was some fucked shit. Which is... appropriate actually.

Yea what more can you say but Fuck Konami. They really are a fucking joke now.

They also don't care what we think anymore. So... ¯\_(&#12484_/¯

 

[Muzicfreq]

Aww hell ya! Better than pt. At least now I have a silly distraction so I don't shit myself

 

[Garlador]

I don't see how you aren't jaded after Homecoming

I was. Homecoming was pretty awful. Shattered Memories, however, was enjoyable enough, and Downpour was, while nothing fantastic, still a baby step in the right direction.

It was a long way from the peak of Team Silent, of course, but while Homecoming felt like the series was limping along, there was still signs of life.

... This... this is like going to an autopsy to confirm whether the body you see is actually the thing you once loved, and you have to acknowledge it's well and truly dead, and somebody killed it.

 

[Nikodemos]

Well, I know what Jim's gonna talk about in his next episode.

Fuck Konami with a cactus, btw.

 

[TheSlySoul]

So we have Castlevania, Contra, and now Silent Hill.
Let's make a Gradius slot machine!

 

[nkarafo]

Who didn't expect this?

 

[sixteen-bit]

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Obligatory:

Okay, now you're just breaking my heart with confusion.

 

[//ARCANUM]

 

[SoldnerKei]

now we just need a Yugioh pachislot

seriously Konami, not bothering with games anymore

 

[Megawarrior]

At this point I can't even get mad anymore.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

i saw this on twitter and hoped that silent hill fans would be happy to see a new game

 

[Ōkami]

Surely El Torro is working on this with Hideki Kajima. Can't wait!

Did they fuse or something?

 

[Voyevoda]

They cancelled Silent Hills but still do this....

[Sword Of Doom]

Man konami really doesn't give a fuck anymore. It's sad to see

 

[oti]

Didn't one of those games just come out?

 

[TheSeks]

...Why is a Fleshlight asking me to do a 1-2-3 number game with it? :|

 

[Andrew Evenstar]

looks sick.

 

[Metalingus5150]

MOTHER FUCKERS!!

 

[JigglesBunny]

My fucking soul is dead.
Silent Hill is trapped in Silent Hill.
It's dead.

 

[Shift Breaker]

I love Castle Vidcons

 

[Blablurn]

Pretty cool

 

[oti]

Pretty cool

You're next.

 

[faridmon]

Will make more money than the entire Silent Hill series put together.

 

[Haunted]

Yeah I agree on all three games. Shattered Memories isn't a good Silent Hill game per se, but it is a good game.

I do see what you mean though, and especially after PT was the RKO out of nowhere that it was and swept people off their feet.

What hurt me the most was delisting PT. This is just the final nail in the coffin.

[SmackAttack]

This is the darkest timeline.

Truly.

 

[Nephtes]

Salt + wound... :C

 

[Hellsing321]

I eagerly await the day Neogaf turns into a board for pachislot junkies.
