Silent Hill: Downpour 360/PS3

[sj33]

There's an interview with the music composer for the game here.

I'm still not sure about the game. I'm aware that I'm approaching this with a default attitude of negatively, and that's not really fair at all. With the direction that Resident Evil appears to be heading in, I would like to see this series head towards a focus on atmosphere, claustrophobia and ambience, and I suspect that the game's attempt to balance a more straight shock horror approach with a healthy dose of action might not correlate with what I'm wanting. Somewhat hypocritical of me, given I love the Dead Space games.

YES!!! you just made my day.

Silent hill in HD with proper widescreen AR, on my couch, and in proper surround sound.

I really, really hope this sells loads, then maybe there is a chance team silent might make another with the realisation that the first 3 are what most of us want more of.

[Wools]

Great to here! I thought Sony had some deal in place, considering the Metal Gear Solid collection was making it across but not this.

Let's hope it's a good port and Konami treat the titles with respect.

[Family Fry]

They are treating them with respect visually but have made the fatal mistake of showing some footage with the new voice work, which was unmixed. The reaction has not been pretty, it sounded like actors in a recording booth.

Delayed to next year. Not surprising

A bit late to your comment, but just so you know this collection only includes HD remakes of SH2 & 3, & will not include SH4 or (more importantly) SH1

Thats good. The game was pretty bad at Eurogamer Expo...

[Family Fry]

The cynic in me is saying this game is near ready to go and the delay is just because of a crowded market.
I would genuinely like to think if the game wasn't recieved well enough by press and people who have played, they would delay and improve.
The even more cynical part of me says it's because Silent Hill HD Collection got delayed and they wanted to release them side by side, Meh.
I'm sure I will buy and enjoy whenever it lands.

Why, what was wrong with it?

All the media so far has looked pretty promising and it seems a lot more `coherent` than Homecoming. Does it play crap?

[chopemon]

Not to defend a game I haven't played but I don't think a survival horror game can demo well at an expo. I played Condemned on the E3 show floor and thought it was a terrible game but then completely loved it come launch when I sat in the dark playing it without a hall full of people around me.

[Flabio]

It did demo particulrly poorly. The section they picked had little to no combat, and looked pretty bland. And there was noone around to help explain to people what to do. Most people I saw gave up on it pretty quickly and went to play something else.

[Neon Ignition]

From what's been shown so far I don't mind the look of this, doesn't look like it'll be a series best but looks better than any of the entries from The Room onwards
