I love the Silent Hill serious, but i have soo many games already preordered on pc and 360, that i think ill have to rent this one first before buying. Looks good though i must say!
I want it, but Silent Hill is going downhill lately. I'll still play it one way or another, but I'm not even expecting much at this point. It may go the way of Alone in the Dark.
i'm a big Silent Hill fan but i feel as though the concept / storyline of the lastest two Silent Hill games (Silent Hill: Origins + Silent Hill Homecoming) are just bland.
Main character comes back from the war to search for his brother...in...silent hill. meh. I'm playing it just as being one of the fans.
From what I've heard this one won't be as good as the others. It's developed by different people.sammyjenkis898
Heard from whom? A bunch of fanboys, or reviewers who have actually seen previews of the game? That makes a big difference. And I'm tired of the "different developer = will be a bad game" argument -- that doesn't follow at all.
I have to agree with most of the other posters here. I am a big Silent Hill fan, so of course I will buy this and play it. I'm really looking forward to seeing what they can do on next-gen software. That being said, this is a new crew. I am just hoping they don't screw with the formula too much, but I don't have a good feeling. I am still looking forward to the release, however, and will buy it the day it comes out.

I am a horror fan but I've always considered the seiries immensely overrated.Since 1998 there has been no improvement in the games whatsoever, the same tiresome mechanics and out of place puzzles (I still remember the mess that was Silent Hill 2 - 1000 doors but only 5 working.Oh!And to get a key you have to take out the garbage...meh).Maybe when the game drops to 20 euros...

I think that the biggest enemy of AITD isn't the controls or the fact that it glitches for some ppl, but the damn reviews! If the reviews are good about a game then it will a blockbuster, if not then it will be like some many games...like AITD for example. I hope this game will live up to our expectations and not get consumed from the reviews. Hey, new dev team, do your best!

I've heard it from many gamesites..

I never said it would be a bad game..
The funny part, some of those reviews also gave SH2 and SH3 "meh" scores. Silent Hill has never received widespread love when it comes to reviews, and that's a fact! Most people who have Silent Hill: Homecoming are EXTREMELY satisfied. I've seen it on Gamespot and GameTrailers. SH: H is in the same league as SH and SH2, but the combat system is much better, and not so craptastic. The fact that this was developed by Double Helix (The Collective) and not Team Silent, is truly a godsend, because SH4 was just bad.
^ Same with Alone in the Dark. Everyone I knew was saying how its score was a dissapointment when in reality, it was one of the highest scoring Alone in the Dark games to date from critics.
I don't get it.Why don't you guys just go into the store on the release day and pick up the game.I wish I could do that.I have to order all games online as there are no gaming stores in my country.And also even if they do have some games in other stores,they arrive like one month after the release,maybe even more.MGS4 isn't in any shop.GTA was available in some shops in August.
I picked it up yesterday at my local Gamestop. It was the last one so that must say something, it seems like people are buying it. I won't get around to it until I finish up Alone in the Dark (hopefully that will be this weekend).
The game looks great to me and from what I heard it controls better than ever. I can't wait to play it.
