Silent Hill 5

Teaser.

Gameplay.


The main character Alex, is a wounded army vet at only 22 years old. He gets a premonition of his brother Joshua being in trouble, while he is recovering in a military hospital. He goes back home to Shepard's Glen, his hometown in New England, and he finds his mother in shock and his brother and father missing.

If you have seen Silent Hill the movie, you'll notice when the town goes from somewhat normal, to GET ME THE FUCK OUT OF HERE, you hear what sounds like emergency sirens, as whats left of the good starts to peel away into darkness. If you watch the game play trailers you'll see them implementing the same idea used in the movie in the game, and it really adds the effect of the nightmare coming to reality.

With a more in depth battle system, while not turning it into a shooter, smarter enemies, bashing open doors to get to you, amazing graphics, new creatures to stir your dreams, this game is looking to be one of the best in 2008.

I'm a true Silent Hill freak. James, Heather and Henry are my best friends. I

was waiting to buy a next gen gaming system until a game came out that I

was dying to play. Apparently the time has come. I remember waiting forever

until Silent Hill 4 came out. Now I can wait for Silent Hill 5 while I'm saving up

for a PS 3. The teaser looks spectacular. Smarter creatures and maybe we'll

finally see the end of the traditional clumsy battle system, too. I see that this

game is made by a different production team, though, although the game itself

is supposed to be a throw-back to the earlier games. Great anticipation on my part!

They've made offers, that's all I know...at this point it's looking like this:
The title will have (potentially limited) exclusivity on the Playstation3.
X-Box may get it down the line on the basis of the developers and what Sony/Microsoft will offer to obtain or maintain release or exclusivity - as with most titles on both ends.

This round in the "console wars" looks as though the major two labels may actually share as many titles as back in the 8-16bit days of Sega and Nintendo, developers striving to work on all available formats, gaming giants throwing more dollars around to snatch titles from eachother.
Very good days for the game developers themselves though, and good for our overall stance as gamers in terms of quality and competition - we'll be seeing less ports and more ground-ups.
Still - The SH series has been with PS and only PS since the days of the PSX/1...on that I'd say that Sony will more than likely strive to keep it that way.
Just my personal take though.

Apparently the wii isn't even in consideration for this title, but then I don't hear everything...doesn't exactly seem their style, but then they HAVE been trying to break the mould somewhat with their previous and current console...doubtful, but hey...

Yeah I figured it would be Ps exclusive, I just figured since they came out with 2 on the xbox they would start doing it for both. Look at Devil May cry thats for both systems now and I only rememeber it being on PS. I don't have either system but I want to get an xbox because they are coming out with alot more games that I want to get for it, so I pray to Valtiel(lol) that it will come out for the 360.

I'm a huge fan of the Silent Hill series. Which made me anxious to play them from the start again. I looked the first game up on Amazon, Ebay, and other sites... It is amazing what it is sellign for especially new.

Yeah that sucks that you can't find it anywhere for cheap. My brother left all his cd cases at my grandmas and sitting on top is his Silent hill case with no booklet and I'll go in there and those eyes will be looking at me everytime. Fuckin creepy. I wish I coulda bought it but I never knew it would be so hard to find.

Love Silent hill games, but i hope this one doesn't turn out like 4. I kind of liked the awkward combat system, it was done on purpose to add a level of helplessness to the games.
