HellDescent writes: Konami has just launched the official website for Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. The page has a few character bios, info and screens. Nothing majorly new, but the new trailer is pretty sweet. The trailer is the Attract Mode video that would be found when idle in the main menu for a minute or 2. It certainly attracts us.
HellDescent writes: Fellow horror game fans, we finally have a date! SH: Shattered Memories will be releasing in America for the Wii on December 8th. After a few delays and mixed date info we can finally rest easy, that is until the game comes out and we find out we actually killed our wife. Oh wait this is a re-imaging of Silent Hill 1, sorry...
Screenwriter Roger Avary and producer Samuel Hadida are going back to the haunted town of Silent Hill. Both have now signed on to pen the 2nd film based on the cult classic Silent Hill series. After lukewarm reviews of the first film and fan outrage at the deviation from source material, we can only hope Avary and Hadida will take some more time with this one. We believe it can be done, but it just needs the right dedication and research. The 2nd film will be moving from paper to reel after the release of Resident Evil: Afterlife. We hope to see more psychological fear and less Pyramid Head booty.
HellDescent writes: Gamestop is listing the next installment in the Silent Hill series as a November 3rd release. Yes, delays usually suck but they're always for the better. A polished game is better than a unpolished one. Also, Gamestop is now offering a soundtrack with a preorder on Shattered Memories. No, it is not the Shattered Memories OST but a compilation of 18 different tracks in the series. Lame, we know.
Available from March 27th, the new compilations retain their original packaging, but are twinned in a special slip cases for just £19.99. The first two pairings will be Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops with Silent Hill Origins, and Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops alongside Coded Arms.
After so many exciting PSP announcements this week, Pocket Gamer investigates rumours of a possible Silent Hill remake for Sony's handheld.
