Silent Hills

[Fairy-Killer]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand Konami can go fuck themselves. How can you cancel the only Silent Hill with potential in years?

[myreality]

They would've made a killing, probably would've spawned a movie reboot.

If they were able to keep it at the same level of PT.

I hadn't realized how scumbag mode Konami had been, even before this.

an eerie phone message that plays after the demo is completed has taken on new meaning, with some speculating that it may have been a hint from Kojima that all was not well with the development of the game.

“Dad was such a drag. Every day he’d eat the same kind of food, dress the same, sit in front of the same kind of games… Yeah, he was just that kind of guy. But then one day, he goes and kills us all! He couldn’t even be original about the way he did it. I’m not complaining… I was dying of boredom anyway, But guess what? I will be coming back, and I’m bringing my new toys with me.”

reaching a bit, but not impossible, it is Kojima after all

My interpretation of the ending text:

Spoiler: show

"Dad was such a drag" = Konami
"Every day he'd eat the same kind of food", "Dress the same", "Sit in front of the same kind of games", "He was just that kind of guy" - Stagnation in development
"Then one day he goes and kills us all! He couldn't even be original about the way he did it. I'm not complaining… I was dying of boredom anyway." - Silent Hill projects no longer being developed, and general dissatisfaction with Downpour.
"But guess what? I will be coming back, and I'm bringing my new toys with me." - Silent Hill, the game series, is the narrator. New toys being Kojima, Del Toro, Reedus, and the Fox Engine.

Not unreasonable, knowing what we do now.

I'd be so excited, and I wouldn't past him, if/when Kojima goes and opens his own studio with all the previous Konami staff.

This is ancient aliens level conspiracy shit, you realize that right?

Cue Tsoukalos pic with Kojima reference.

[Qalbert]

welp. Kotaku is reporting that PT is straight up removed from PSN servers period, so if it's not on your machine now, you're fucked.

[Ratatapa]

wow they really going all out with this shit

[Celeras]

They told us they were doing that two weeks in advance.

[Qalbert]

no, they said you wouldn't be able to 'buy' it. you would still be able to re-download it if you had deleted it from your HDD. that is apparently no longer the case.

[Celeras]

I guess. But I don't see why anyone would be under the impression that they wouldn't let you click the 'buy' button for a free demo, but would still keep it on the servers indefinitely (for fun?).

[Ratatapa]

Most PSN games are like that, if they are removed from PSN you can still download them if you already 'bought' them

[Katlan]

Never removing it from my Machine. Best Game... er... Demo ever

Never removing it from my Machine. Best Game... er... Demo ever

I hear people are already putting machines with the demo installed up for a pretty hefty price, lol.

But isisn't the demo linked to the PSN ID? could be problematic no?
