It’s been over a year since Konami pulled the plug on one of the most anticipated horror games in recent memory. Silent Hills, spearheaded by the eccentric industry innovator Hideo Kojima in partnership with legendary filmmaker Guillermo Del Toro, promised something special and unlike anything we’ve seen before. This was cemented by the loopy horror of its playable teaser, P.T., which introduced intricate puzzle solving and a clever homely setting to emphasize the incredible scares on display. However, since its cancellation and Kojima’s exit from Konami, fans speculated that Silent Hills may not be too far gone yet. With Sony funding Kojima’s new projects, will he find his way back to Silent Hills?

Lots of "if" and "maybe". Good read for those who would like to hold on to some hope.

As usual, but they announced MG Survive at E3 and it's been left off the report. Does not bode well.

In a shocking twist it will turn out that it was a pachinko tech demo all along.

Konami is Recruiting new staff using an ad featuring all their IP's

**Omniyoji** · 2017-04-02 12:43

Fucking assholes....

**Insanecyclone** · 2017-04-02 13:24

Translation: "come work here nonstop with bosses and cameras watching your every step and absolutely no peer pressure!"

**Rizil** · 2017-04-02 13:30

By the sheer fact that I see Suikoden characters in that picture just breaks my heart even further, reminding me we're never getting another Suikoden.

**Corrderio** · 2017-04-02 14:16

So are they trying to jazz up Pachinko machines?

Konami still fucking with Kojima and other former employees
Using their influence to deny healthcare from a Japanese provider for the Tech Industry, Spreading misinformation to keep former staff from getting employment

Holy shit. It's like they want to keep shooting whatever the fuck is left of both of their feet.

**PantsJunior** · 2017-06-12 10:33

I wish somebody -- Sony, Square, whoever -- would just buy all of Konami's IP from them. Or maybe have a custody battle over them; they're clearly unfit guardians of these franchises.

**Damane** · 2017-06-12 16:42

This is so fucked up. Welp, not like any good games will come from Konami anymore, but i sure wont buy them even if they do revive some good IPs...

**Corrderio** · 2017-06-12 17:52

Funny enough a coworker and me were talking about Left 4 Dea-I mean Metal Gear Survive on Friday and if we had any plans on getting it. Pretty sure that'll be a big hell no after this stunt.

Assuming Konami doesn't cancel it or turn it into a pachinko game.
