For gamers like me who were excited to see Norman Reedus from the Walking Dead, Guillermo del Toro from Hellboy and Pan’s Labyrinth, and Hideo Kojima from Metal Gear series working together on the new Silent Hill, we have been disappointed tonight.
It was confirmed by Del Toro in a statement when asked about the status of Silent Hills, the upcoming title in the long running Silent Hill series from Konami. His answer to the question was, “It’s not gonna happen and that breaks my greasy heart.”
To me, I knew the game wasn't going to happen just because of the disgraceful and dishonorable firing of Hideo Kojima at Konami. Obviously, Kojima can't finished a project if he is no longer working for the company. I hate the way business politics always leaves visionaries like Kojima on the short end of the stick. Below I listed more pieces of evidence to support Silent Hill was cancelled.
The first evidence the Silent Hill project was cancelled came from the game's playable teaser demo being pulled from the PSN store a few days ago. The second evidence came from Norman Reedus himself on twitter saying the Silent Hill project was over. The third evidence came via news from Del Toro saying the project wasn't happening.
It's a sad day in the gaming world. I feel like this is foreshadowing for more bad news to come.
