Poorly written.
Dear Capcom,
Stop messing about with stupid fantasy stuff and bring back actual zombies. No southern American towns, no 'Plagus', no weird dude selling you guns from out of his coat.
Resident Evil 1 and 2 were absolutely terrifying games. Since Silent Hill came along and blew the survival horror genre out of the water (but unfortunately..they're fallen by the way side too), Resident Evil has suffered. Not saying they're bad games...but ther...
The whole 'shocked about the content' crap is stupid. I bet you all watch south park, porn etc. It's an invalid argument.
Fact it is this game doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't. It's not trying to be a Halo or Killzone killer, tater than poke fun at the fact that video games aren't as deathly serious as they're often made out to be.
It's got it's faults, yes, but if you hype the hell out of something for 15 years it's...
Finally got to see the screens.. wow the 3DS version looks crap in comparison to the PS2 version! I thought the 3DS was supposed to be a bit of a graphical powerhouse yet it loses to an 11 year old console?! Well done, Nintendo.. :/
Man, those platinum covers and cases are an eyesore.
I'd much rather buy the games used individually and have the original jewel cases than have those abominations on my shelf.
It shows YOU don't get what Silent Hill is about, calling Akira Yamaoka, the producer and composer and the whole reason Silent Hill 1-4 were brilliant games, a hack and embracing a dross band like Korn doing the theme song.
Silent Hill isn't about contemporary rock, it's about about atmosphere.
*booooooo* *hiss*
Very true. Akira's work is awe-inspiring.
My biggest worry is that they've got Korn doing the main theme for the game :/
Why can't they get a Silent Hill right for the first time in 7 years. Stop with the ducking about!
Pyramid head shouldnt be in downpour. Just like it shouldn't have been in Homecoming or the movie.
It was James' projection.
Can't view the site from my phone. What's the verdict?
If the reviews you read don't mention the audio then you're reading the wrong reviews. Audio is massively important in gaming, just as it is in movies and TV shows.
first niggahs
Dear Silent Hill: Downpour Developers,
DO NOT FUCK THIS GAME UP.
-Sincerely,
Old Fan Who Needs To Be Won Over After Being Shit On Since 2004
..but the store isn't online...
THIS!
It really winds me up too.
I'm sorry but I realy don't see how people here are so up in arms about this..
How long would you use the multiplayer on this if it was there?... seriously?
There are much better multiplayer games out now.
I would put money on the fact you'd play it for an evening, get bored and go right back to COD or Killzone or whatever you're online time is usually taken up by.
Anyone arguing they should include it just because its a feature from th...
Maybe they just did the sensible thing and produced more consoles than they needed. That and they don't need to create hype by saying "OMG!!! We're like, always sold out.." like Sony and Microsoft do or did with their latest hardware additions last year.
As much as I don't like Nintendo games or consoles (they don't appeal to my tastes), they know they can sell the console on the grounds of reputation and customer familiarity rather. I very much doubt tha...
How much do you think they pumped into R&D for this thing? It's not like the 3D tech just happened and they knocked a console together.
Think about what you're saying.
They might be making money on each console they make but they sure as hell aren't in profit territory yet after all the money they put into making the damn thing actually happen.
Isnt this the same arsehole who last week was like..
"I'll fight Sony until the bitter end!!" ??
Thats like me saying I'll carry on buying beers for my friends all night.. then proceeding to ask people in the bar for donations.
I've got a mic but it never gets any use these days. I'd much rather boot up Skype or Teamspeak on my phone and have a chat with much better quality than that what's on the official headset.
Also it works as a kind of cross game chat, even cross platform chat :)
