Silent Hill: Shattered Memories

Cause we all know how much internet petitions accomplish.

Well, seems Konami wanted to make me look like a total moron, because today their trailer for Silent Hill at their press conference said "Fall 2009". I've come to realize I shouldn't believe a damn thing that they say.

Fatal Frame 4 is apparently never being released in the west, unfortunately. Nintendo wanted Tecmo to fix some game breaking bugs and fiddle with the controls before the western release, and Tecmo was all like "no way, you want us to do more work but you're not going to pay us again for it" and Nintendo was like "pay you extra to fix your broken shit? Eff off."

So Nintendo showed them the error of their ways by handing them Metroid...

Cursed Mountain has some potential and even though I hated Umbrella Chronicles, Darkside seems to benefit from it's backdrop and not being split into a half-dozen sub quests.

Metroid's clearly been in development a while, this probably didn't come to light until that was already signed off on.

Well... look what somebody on the internet found and scanned.

Time to get that off my Christmas list. The Wii is just a never ending stream of let downs. Jesus.

[Despair]

Just as I thought, the fucked up idea of hey it doesn't need combat - Lets just make him try to run away bullshit, ruins some of the experience.

I will pick it up in the bargain bin eventually.

All the elements that make Silent Hill be Silent Hill are right there, in the original games and broken down endlessly online. Why are they so hard to understand? Creepy town turns into terrifying town, and the horror is an external manifestation of the main character's inner problems. It may not be easy to do but it's a pretty straightforward formula. You'd think they'd try and stick to it now and then.

Those run-on sentences are truly frightening.
