To paraphrase Yahtzee, Western developers truly couldn't have missed the point of Silent Hill any more even if they fired in the opposite direction in an entirely different country. The fact 'over 50 weapons' is a selling point in a Silent Hill game pretty much tells you all you need to know about it. If the original team dropped the series, then it's probably best to let it lie dead. Also no Akira Yamaoka.. does anything else really need to be said?

Hmm... now I've watched this, I'm a little more optimistic (70% puzzles, less combat orientated than Homecoming, and seperate difficulty levels for combat and puzzles? Better.), but I won't be getting my hopes up.

I love the Japanese Silent Hill games, and I guess I'm one of the few who liked Homecoming too (loved it actually). Origins was ok, but Shattered Memories wasn't great (very short, and it didn't feel at all like a SH game). I for one am looking forward to this game immensely, I think it looks fantastic. Now Book of Memories for Vita on the other hand? F*ck that. Laughing
