Images of Silent Hill 5

Images of Silent Hill 5

Before the Games Developer Conference (GDC) next week, where with a little bit of luck we will learn more about Silent Hill 5, here are some new screenshots of this creation. If you want my opinion, it's really far from my favorites (the two first entries) et it frustrates me. However, it's not a complete failure, only it does not oozes atmosphere like it used to. See it for yourself after the jump.

Am I just spoiled or does pic 7 look like it could be a PS2 game?

It seems like you play near sighted.. even if your wearing your glasses.

it looks almost identical to silent hill 2 on the PS2

I find it ironic that the SH series has always been quite the looker, and now it looks rather terrible.
Commented on 2008-02-16 08:13:46
No, it still looks pretty great. Awesome premise too. I have faith in the new developer.

Why is team Silent not working on this again....
Commented on 2008-02-16 09:49:19
I've heard that this team sucks. Which is really too bad since Silent Hill is one of my favorite series of games ever. At least part one, two and three...i guess The Room had some redeeming features, but it was decent at best. Origins i never tried, but from what i've heard it sucks too.

Oh well, even though hopes are low i guess i'll just have to wait and see.

ill never get over the opening in the fog with the staticy radio...sheesh, that was a great title, i hope this one doesnt get screwed over

Me2 Xeviant, when those air raid sirens sounded for the first time, wow! scary sh**!

So why aren't konami in charge of silent hill development anymore?
Commented on 2008-02-16 11:24:41
twoism: it's still Konami, it's just not the same team that did the previous games. It's some new American studio...or so i've heard.

The best is SH2, I love that game so much :D just playing Origins (PSP) right now until SH5! You can get a little info on this video...yea, I know its a little old :P but still...

It looks too bright.

I sure hope The Collective can pull this off. Silent Hill is easily in my top 5 favorite game series and I would be a very angry if they can't keep the terrifying vibe that the other games had.

This is what going multi-platform can do to a great franchise. Lowest denominator ftw... or not.

Well, at least it's not EA. So still hopes for this one.

Apparently you've never seen a PS2 game before. While the game doesn't look top-notch, what's important is the atmosphere. Which, unfortunately, the screens seem to lack that, but it's tough to judge since seeing it in motion would be much better. Wouldn't mind some fog or vision obscuring mechanism to add to the atmosphere, everything's too clear and visible. Oh well, as long as it's not as bad as SH 4 then I'm game.

I dont like SH for one thing . Character walk move fight like stupid slow idiot.
All he can do - is diying allways

my english so bad, I cant understand it myself

Yeah it does, even the models do too. That's the patented PS2 Japanese developer hair going there.

What's up?
  • Baleur
    Baleur Why are you discussing reviews anyway? When have reviews ever mattered? They are just individual people writing about their individual opinions. Might as well read reviews on music too then, lol XD (2 Hours ago)
  • GriftGFX
    GriftGFX pfft text! we only care for numbers (2 Hours ago)
  • blmbox
    blmbox Yeah, but judging by the content of both reviews, Eurogamer didn't particularly care much for the game anyway. They probably only gave it an 8 to avoid controversy - the review sounded more like a 6. (6 Hours ago)
  • GriftGFX
    GriftGFX 6 to 8 split on Eurogamer, which isn't quite as large but still pretty significant. (8 Hours ago)
  • SimonM7
    SimonM7 Yeah sure, but from what console reviews are saying it's perfectly adequate. I mean I'm sure PC is the way to go, but I sincerely doubt we're seeing a 5 to 9 split score wise or anything. (8 Hours ago)
  • GriftGFX
    GriftGFX not that the Xbox version is "that bad" by most accounts either.. there are plenty of people here playing it who adore it.. but the PC game is recieving higher marks across the board (8 Hours ago)
  • GriftGFX
    GriftGFX @SimonM7: I doubt that's true too, if other reviews I've read are any indication. The game was designed around an interface that's not represented on the Xbox.. (8 Hours ago)
