Hideo Kojima took to Twitter just below an hour in the past, and when you have been merely doom-scrolling and never studying, you would possibly’ve felt your coronary heart skip a beat when you’re a horror fan. No, Kojima just isn’t sharing any teasers from his upcoming horror mission with Xbox. He merely shared the P.T. art work once more.
Once more, no, there isn’t any new P.T. bulletins. It is not getting back from the lifeless. The truth is, it nonetheless is not even downloadable anyplace except you are monitoring it – or its clones – down by nefarious means.
Kojima tweeted that “It has been 8 years”, and, effectively, he is not fallacious. It has been eight years since what may’ve been the very best Silent Hill recreation – an entire revival for the Konami sequence from Steel Gear Strong’s greatest – was robbed from us. Fortuitously for me, who won’t cease rambling on about P.T. and the lack of Silent Hills for the lifetime of me, I have been reminded that I am not alone.
Whereas I instantly additionally took to Twitter to ask why Kojima want pour salt in our wounds, it seems everybody else feels the identical – even Guillermo del Toro, who was additionally set to work on the mission, chimed in with a sly profanity-laced tweet. It is all very bittersweet.
It is candy sufficient to see the outpour of affection for this demo, which by no means even turned a fully-fledged recreation, each time it is talked about. Nonetheless, it nonetheless stays extremely bitter that P.T. was all we’d get when Silent Hills was cancelled in 2015. The beneath response says it completely.
It leaves much more of a sour-taste in loads of peoples mouths that P.T. is extraordinarily tough to play at present: except you have acquired a console with the demo nonetheless put in from again within the day, not many may even expertise P.T. for what it really was: a terrifying expertise, one which promised to deliver Silent Hill again to its really unnerving roots.
The truth is, the responses to Kojima’s tweet are as soon as once more full of individuals sharing their experiences with P.T. Within the midst of all of the harm, shocked, and unhappy memes, so many others can vividly bear in mind the moments they sat down and performed the demo. Whereas we could by no means see Silent Hills on the horizon, it is definitely good to see a neighborhood of followers introduced collectively in its absence.
There’s all the time Hideo Kojima’s subsequent horror endeavour to look ahead to, and who is aware of, possibly Silent Hill will nonetheless be aware about a revival. There’s been loads of rumours.
