The newest installment in the silent hill franchise silent hills has just been confirmed cancelled this week via Guillermo del toro. article here. For those unaware this project was originally a collaboration between Hideo Kojima and Guillermo Del Toro but after news spread that Kojima was being laid off by Konami many people wondered what would happen to the game after it left such a good impression thanks to P.T. Konami will be removing P.T. from the playstation store this week so if you want it get it now. Such a shame it had to end this way.

Thanks Konami!

Well, that's awfully disappointing.
People were hyped for this, goddamit.

Response to Silent Hills officially cancelled 2015-04-27 11:37:43


That's a shame. PT was pretty good.

Never been Silent Hill fan myself but I know SH fans was really looking forward to this installment. Shame.

Even then.
Norman Reedus
Guilermo Del Toro
Hideo Kojima (although, his involvement can be debated on whether it was good or not)

This game had potential.
First this, next Metal Gear will become a disappointment.

I was saddened about this. I really was hoping to play this. Why couldn't they just get some new devs in on the job? :(

I was talking more about the game's atmosphere than how it played.

Shit sucks. I was looking forward to this game more than anything else right now. I'm not even much of a Silent Hill fan, I just love the first game and to a lesser extent the second.

We saw almost nothing of the actual game beyond PT so I don't know where you're getting that.

The fact it was cancelled when they realised they couldn't live up to the demo they created for it since it was inevitable from the start.

That had nothing to do with it's cancellation at all. Kojima and Del Toro had plenty of confidence in delivering a fine product. The suits at Konami just suck at doing business. Kojima was the designer, you can't have a game without the designer and Del Toro had no interest in making the game without Kojima.

The game was cancelled because Kojima left Konami.

Response to Silent Hills officially cancelled 2015-04-27 18:33:04


That's really awful, I guess it was too good to be true. Konami is really fucking things up in 2015, I'm kind of scared of what's going to happen next. But that means the PS4 is now the 'Bloodborne emulator' because it seems to be its only use.

Thats completely irrelevant and a shallow thing to say.

Hate to see this game get axed. We were about to get a very good Silent Hill game and probably one of the best we had in a long time and it gets cancelled. Even if they did bring it back it won't be potentially good as they originally planned and I hate that so much.

Complete bullshit. This game is THE reason I bought a PS4.

I suppose Kojima is playing tricks again...

Response to Silent Hills officially cancelled 2015-04-28 09:38:43


Yeah, I heard about this a few hours ago. It's such a shame, because P.T. showed off quite a lot of potential, and that was just a teaser. There's no telling how incredible and innovative Silent Hills could've been.

If that series is over, now they create something new and fresh.

He's sadly correct. The PS4 really doesn't have any great games I can't get anywhere else, like on my last generation consoles. I'm not against remasters, but even this generation is over doing it.

I did. It was repetitious, boring, youtube fodder garbage. But I know people liked it and that doesn't mean im not a silent hill fan. To see it in the hands of a great designer like Kojima and an amazing director like Del Toro got me excited. It might not have been silent hill 3 good, but it would have been waves better than downpour and homecoming.

It was going to be ported to Wii U anyway. I will not miss it.

So what's your point?

We already knew that the full game wasn't going to be like P.T. anyways. It was to merely drum up hype. Great idea and a great concept, but ultimately doomed when announced it wasn't going to be that way.

Really a shame to see this game getting cancelled.

They should focus on making more rpgs. Never enough rpgs.
