Silent Hill Heaven

Honestly, I'm just excited. After a full decade of neglect, we have SO MUCH to theorise and speculate about now!

I signed up the night it was announced and have heard precisely nothing else about it, which is also a bit weird, but I'm just hoping that the cream from the numerous devs and artists who've wanted to capitalise on the SH franchise over the years has risen to the top. But honestly... yeah. We know s...

You mean TGA? I don't think we'll see anything Silent Hill there. Keighley chose his side in the Konami/Kojima conflict and Konami doesn't forget. lol Given Konami pulled out of Sony's State of Play at the last minute, I get the sense that they want to control the messaging tightly. That's not to s...

Not your fault. At least we found out before everyone started writing new headcanons! XD

I found what claims to be a partial translation of the novel online. If this translation is accurate, Harry asks Heather to pick up a book - Gravity's Rainbow by Thomas Pynchon - which would have "come in handy for something [he was] working on." I think this ties in quite nicely with the...

Same. I tire of hearing Troy Baker, Jennifer Hale, Laura Bailey, Nolan North etc. in absolutely EVERYTHING.

I think they're household names for a reason - they really elevated voice performance quality - but yes, there are other worthy voice artists, too, if they're able to get a look in!

Same (Monica Taylor Horgan aside, bc she is GODDESS).

As for the large body of water, it could be from a lake bigger than Toluca lake, or it could be from a part of the game not in SH. Alternately, it could just be a motif or mood piece to set the tone of the game. There are clearly waves in the teaser, though, suggesting it's tidal and a sea/ocean ra...

There are spectrograms hidden in SILENT HILL: TOWNFALL's trailer. It reads WHATEVER HEART THIS TOWN HAD HAS STOPPED There is also an SOS signal tucked between the THY FLESH IS WEAK images. Read all about this on reddit today, and it's got me so hyped. The "townfall" may be a play on the &...

aj4x94 wrote: ↑23 Oct 2022 Controversial pick, but I would like some extra scenarios where you play as Angela and Eddie.

Not controversial for me. Would LOVE to see what Silent Hill looks like to both of them!

I just can't forgive the degradable weapons. Still.

Downpour is my fav western game. Obvs it's a pretty low bar, but I found it the spookiest and the most intriguing story-wise.

What specifically denies the possibility that this is Neely's bar? I can definitely see more resemblance than in other background buildings presented in Silent Hill 2. Seeing how there are clear environment changes, I wouldn't be surprised if this is its new look. Because a bar looks like a bar and...

Nice spot!

I had no problem with Troy Baker's James but yeah, what we've seen/heard thus far feels right.

The only thing that's bothering me is RPT. Delighted he's no longer the 'roided mess in the movie, but he looks way too clean here. But it's very very early days, so not freaking out about it or anything. Also, James' face changes so much throughout that teaser - and his hair! Again, it's too early ...

A lot of us want them to not touch or change anything in the actual game other than graphics and music... But for theories sake, let's walk into yes territory. If they are definitely going to add something new to the game. What is your number one biggest wish on your list? Only ONE. Music is one of...

I have no insider knowledge on this one, but given the link between Ito's blossom concept art and Sakura and/or f, I'd be surprised if he wasn't involved. Same for Yamaoka. I know he was supposed to be scoring PT, FWIW. Arkadiusz Reikowski is fkin superb and for those who don't know, worked with Yam...

Holy shit, this would be incredible.

I wasn't sure until I saw Behaviour Interactive and JJ Abrams were attached and now I'm psyched and super curious!

This was my first and immediate reaction, too!

I'm super pumped either way.

Video, I think? That was what the State of Play announcement was gonna be anyways...
