Silent Hill fans disappointed

Although slot machine enthusiasts will likely welcome the new release, video game fans are not thrilled by the news.

The last entry in the Silent Hill series was released in 2012. In 2014, Konami put out Silent Hill: P.T., a short “playable teaser” on the PlayStation 4. It was a preview of an upcoming game called Silent Hills, directed by Guillermo del Toro and starring The Walking Dead’s Norman Reedus. In April 2015, the project was abruptly canceled.

Original Silent Hill video game was groundbreaking

The first Silent Hill game debuted on the original Sony PlayStation console in 1999. It was a “survival horror” game, lauded as one of the most important games of the genre.

The player takes on the role of Harry Mason, who is searching for his lost daughter in the town of Silent Hill. It is a third-person action game in which Mason must fend off nightmarish creatures. What set it apart from other games of the time is that it created an atmosphere of dread and a real fear of the unknown. It was a psychological horror game more than it was a fast-paced shoot-’em-up. Silent Hill also had multiple endings depending on the choices the player made throughout the game.
