I think SH2 remake looks like poo poo because not a single moment of that trailer managed to convey any sense of tension, discomfort, or fear in me whatsoever.

It looks nice on a technical level I guess? At parts? But I’m somehow getting zero Silent Hill 2 vibes from what should be a spot on remake of Silent Hill 2.

I believe Emmanuelle is shit, though Emmanuelle 2, Emmanuelle '77 and Goodbye, Emmanuelle may be very good movies.

I loved the set and monster design but the writing was dogshit. Last act is a mess beginning with an excruciating exposition dump, and in retrospect it's dated by Gans loading the movie with Bush-era anti-evangelical sentiment. "Your faith brings death!!!" made me cringe hard on rewatch

I’m optimistic. The trailer looked surprisingly good. Bloober has a bad reputation but, maybe it’ll be like when Nintendo managed to get Silicon Knights to make a couple of good games before they went independent and fell apart.

So is Requiem using a good portion of the PS5's capabilities? It's pretty much more of the same from the last game which is pretty much exactly what I wanted but there are some rough framerate drops.

Farewell, good Hunter. May you find your worth in the waking world.

Ok I’m liking Requiem a lot but in fight scenes with a lot of rats, when you have to do the mix of stealth combat action stuff.. the frame pacing and chugga chugga of the engine feels so bad it’s hard not to get disoriented. It’s funny because when it’s raining and they drop the draw distance way down via fog.. the game runs very well. They just need to optimize and cut it out with some of the LOD they’re piping through or use more of that cool “draw only stuff in the player’s fov don’t be like star citizen” technology and it would probably be a much better experience. It feels awful at times, really good at other times.

I'm very excited for the Silent Hill reveals tomorrow and also have no problem declaring that the Silent Hill movie is one the top 10 horror movies released since 2000

I remember renting the silent hill movie with my then gf at blockbuster. When it got to the zombies in sexy nurse outfits showing cleavage for some reason she laughed and just said ‘ugh this is a boy movie’ and I never felt more ashamed for buying into it being anything but mindless poo poo for kids.

(and can't post for 4 days!)

so the silent hill revival is

sh2 remake by artless hacks + some original team and might be okay but will probably butcher most of it
sh:townfall which sounds a lot like downpour and judging by the trailer will be some incredibly obvious psych ward/guilt nonsense because that's the brand. sh: homepouring
and a bad movie

cool i'll check it all out.

I finished Requiem and I'm not sure what to think about that last third. FULL ENDING SPOILERS: It was such a massive downer. All that poo poo just so to watch a kid get traumatized into being a bomb and leaving you with no option but to kill your brother after the entire rest of your family has died is... ugh. Doesn't feel great.

Also, these guys really like the Akira manga. When I saw the resonating orb Hugo turned into I was torn between thinking it was a neat visual homage, but also kind of a weird genre shift. When I realized they were doing the same "entering a space where the rules of reality dissipate, you see into the child superbombs mind, then say farewell to save what's left of civilization" ending... well okay. They really went all the way.

Thinking back, there are an awful lot of parallels. A secret group of researchers unlocked a new power in kids, it went out of control so they sealed the kid deep underground. Later the same power appears in a new kid. The research group tries to control him at first, then decided they need to eliminate him again. The new kid is psychically drawn to the original who is sealed underground. In the end, warring factions trigger the new kid into going nuclear, so you enter his world ending glowy sphere to end him.

Replace future Tokyo with medieval France and psychokinesis with rats.


It was visually spectacular at least. If they make a third game where you go after The Order to try to end the existence of macula, I'll play. If it's just enduring more misery with the next host... eh, I've had enough.

I watched a friend play through Silent Hill 1 back at release. It was fun to watch and a genuinely creepy and neat game for the time, although not the type I personally enjoy playing. I don’t have more to say about the series other than I hope fans get a good entry.

I'm really liking the art design of Silent Hill F. It doesn't look much like any of the previous games, but that's probably a good thing. Does anyone know anything about Ryukishi07? Seems like he has a lot of fans.

The remake looks bland, Townfall looks like a rehash of previous themes, and the multiplayer game is just a dumb fit for the franchise. The movie will probably be visually impressive but corny, like all of the director's films.

If you don't trust Konami to respectfully exhume the corpse of a beloved series that, judging from a string of bad-to-mediocre farmed-out sequels, it was failing to steward even before it loudly and messily abandoned AAA game development, an episode that included the abrupt cancelling of a Silent Hill project that was more exciting than everything announced today combined, you're a hater.
