In a recent interview with Japanese magazine Dengeki Playstation chief Silent Hill designer Masashi Tsuboyama recently talkedSilent Hill 5 - Namely platforms. In an age when all but first party games are going multi-platform, what does that mean for SH 5? Tsuboyama explains:
"We only have ideas but we have been assessing next-generation consoles such as Sony's Playstation 3... We have not decided the console yet... Silent Hill 1 to 3 have all been multi platform appearing on either Playstation 3, Xbox or PC. This was when we were working at DVD level with no HD needed. Mutli-Platform will be discussed but nothing is certain yet... The Xbox 360 is definatly a candidate."
The second part of GTA BOOM's interview with Obbe Vermeij where they turn from origin stories to craft. Specifically, how early GTA games created the illusion of life, and why that illusion still matters more than brute-force simulation.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD have been delisted from digital stores without warning.
Stupid headline. Should state that they are being updated or discontinued. This makes the crazy people that only read headlines think it some kind of conspiracy to take away peoples already purchased games.
If you want to all of a sudden own them now and haven't played them yet because a remastered is coming out, shame on you. I can't believe people are complaining about this 15 years later when it was bound to happen anyway. "A new remaster is out, quick, I'd better buy the original from the shop."
Gamers: "Physical? who needs physical? everyone knows that digital online games are the future. stop living in the past. we don't need no stinking disc drive"
Same gamers: "How dare the delist a digital game that I own!!!!"
And? What is your point?
Same gamers: "How dare the retailers to delist (quit selling) a physical game that I own!!!!"
I think you just read the headline and don't know how dilisting works with Sony. It's common knowledge that:
"Players who already bought the games will still have them in their library and can download and play them as usual."
So again, what is your point?
In an exclusive interview with GTA BOOM, former Rockstar North technical director Obbe Vermeij reveals how Rockstar North really operated and debunks one of GTA’s biggest myths.
To me it sounds like if the game does go Multi-Platform the lead game would be the PS3 and to me that is all that matters. I could care less if it ends up on the 360. Just as long as the PS3 version will be able to do things that it could not had it been on the 360.
I thought it always was on both? I remember previews on teamxbox.com a loooong time ago. I dont have super high hopes for the game though, seems like SH has struggled over the last few releases.
Old news .. Other than that, a good read.
Oh, did I mention Silent Hill 2 is my favourite game of all time and that I could kill to get my hands on this one?
i own every silent hill, never played them but my bro loves these games, hes even getting ORIGINS for the psp. silent hill 1 looks bad on the PS3 though :( i just love the creatures in these games.
This interview didn't say much other than they are thinking of putting Silent Hill on either PS3, 360, or Wii, or 2 of them, or.... well you get the idea. Funny how he meantioned the Wii of it. Saying it would be easy to put it out on the Wii just hard to use the controller. I don't know in the end this will most likly be a PS3/360 title. Didn't they already say it was for both? Is this interview after that statement?
