Yeah, Kojima is a bit, uh, long-winded, to be kind about it.

You know things are bad when he has to put in a mini-game in cut-scenes to keep people engaged.

*EDIT* Wow, this is creepy as hell. I can't believe I actually jumped the first time I peered in a door and a cockroach came out. lol

Strange way to deliver some rather big news... But I dig it. A Silent Hill announcement with Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro attached to it would've been big new today. Instead Sony goes all sneaky about it with a freaky interactive trailer/demo.

I hope more info is released this week since the cat is now out of the bag.

it sure was, but seems appropriate given its silent hillz - title alone has me wondering, 'wtf' rest seems awesome

Ok, this creeped me the eff out. I got to a part where some woman grabbed me and I died. From there I didn't know what to do, so I turned off my PS4 in a cowardice act

same ... I keep telling myself it's just a videogame but I had to step away
and of course as I walk up the dark stairs the black house cat jumps out in front of me

Matt S · 08-13-2014, 05:56 AM

the demo/interactive teaser was super creepy. Played it twice, and both times it was pretty different. Awesome....

Ha, that horror movie cliche happens to me all the time. My cat is gray with just a tiny fringe of white which seems to glow a bit in the dark. I named him Ghost for a reason.

The game has amazing atmosphere, but good Lord could it use a few hints. I just want to see the ending!

I can't figure out anything. Just going round and round. none of the buttons do anything.. Any tips.

You can examine objects with R3. Some objects you can modify with X, but not many. Generally, you look at things in search of clues and, in the process, clues will come looking for you.

Matt S · 08-13-2014, 07:05 AM

pay attention to the main stuff. Clock, plant - a phone, the dresser under the swinging light (with the keys), etc.

each time you go through the one door and come out the other side, something will happen....and once it does, go through it again and so on.

First time took me over an hour - no clue what I was looking for.

2nd time = under ten minutes...lol

ariakon · 08-13-2014, 07:13 AM

I wish I had played this before the internet cracked it, the end would have made my head explode.

tigertron · 08-13-2014, 10:43 AM

I hope we get the demo on the EU store later today.

I'm sold on this game due to the fact that we're playing as Daryl.

As for the first person gameplay, I'm not quite sold on that aspect since SH has pretty much been third person despite The Room, but it's not something that's going to put me off.

Blu Lemmy · 08-13-2014, 10:51 AM

It was on there last night, I downloaded it about 9pm

Harlock415 · 08-13-2014, 12:38 PM

At work right now.

i'd like to check it out. What is it listed as in the playstation store?

I don't think this is a first person game. I know the P.T is in first person but I don't think the final game will be.

I hope not. And this is certainly a nice surprise, I've been waiting for Silent Hill to make its appearance.

Where about?

Blu Lemmy · 08-13-2014, 01:18 PM

I just checked the demo section and it was there??

NARMAK · 08-13-2014, 01:47 PM

Won't lie. This games super creepy. Was playing at night, and the DS4, ominos koans etc. don't help.

I switched off after a bit. Going to try again.

I have to say, Horror games like this are more scary than any damn movie out there. Its because unlike movies where you just 'watch' and can 'detach' from being the victim, in games you ARE the character. You control this victims actions.

Nightmares NEVER offer you control, and a typical trope in games is also a profound lack of control whivh is what makes true horror games more inherently scary.
