Silent Hill May Be Getting Brought Back By Bloober Team...

The forgotten SH game.



They should have ported it long ago...

 

I’m sure I saw it in a Blackpool arcade, I didn’t play it though. I wonder if it’s available via emulation - looks repetitive though?

 

When I was on gog.com, I noticed SH4: The Room is on the site. If only SH3 could be ported too. That horrible HD collection that was released on the Xbox 360 and PS3 in 2012 was buggy, and for licensing reasons, they weren't able to have the original voices in the game, unlike 2, resulting in a complete re-dub.

In other news, Capcom hopes to do expansions for adding in different story updates for RE9, etc, rather than developing more spin off games. This will improve the augmentation, and could help to resolve plot threads that have lingered for ages, like the fate of Billy Coen, or if Natalia Korda is acting different as an adult. Because as you know, they introduced so many characters, yet failed to really reveal much about the outcome.

Even in the scene where Billy tells of his downfall, Capcom just messed it up.

He basically tells Rebecca he was on a mission with his comrades, and they realized someone provided misleading information. So he stated that they could not go back empty handed after finding they went to the wrong place. We are then shown a scene that is set in Africa, despite not being connected to RE5. But all you see is some person's eyes close up briefly, so it's never even revealed who ordered the shooting to begin with.

Hm. They need to definitely not leave us hanging on to storylines, because they clearly must not be important to Capcom, who now go about trying to retcon things anyway.

Hire better writers who are willing to go the distance, if this is their biggest worry with their games.

 

I’m sure GoG have a feature where you can vote for which game/s you wish to see preserved/sold on their platform.
I disliked the HD collection also.

Yes, there’s a number of characters who disappeared from the franchise, Capcom probably think we’re not interested in hearing about them again but these characters deserve closure & the players need to know what happened to them.

 

When it comes to Capcom, I think they should just come clean and admit to us that the modern remakes are canonical.

There is no way the OG lore and whatever goes on today can both be canon, because then every game ever made would be official, concurrently.

Now, okay. I totally understand that they could not show a flashback to a PS1 game. That would stand out like a sore thumb, you know? Because it is basically low resolution polygons versus 4K HD. But some aspects of the story were not in the original, like Kendo the gun store owner having a kid. So it does feel like RE2 (2019) has gone and 'replaced' everything the original title began in the 90s. Which sucks, because then the awful remake of 3 with 95% of the original stuff altered, must be canon as well. It wouldn't make sense for one or two remakes to be canon, but not the other ones Capcom released. So they're probably going to remake 5 at some point. Like it really needs to be updated. Come on!

But yeah. RE3 is so crap. I hate the glitch where Nemesis clips through a roof. He could aim his tentacle at his enemies, but he is not supposed to be able to dive through ceilings. And what else was wrecked?

No Barry ending. No clock tower. No dead factory. No Brad death. Bargain bin zombie outbreak, while we worried in 2020 if Covid could make us into one of the undead.

I just refuse to accept the remake of 3 counts. But I guess it does, whether we like it or not.
