Where the hell did you find that img? :O I don't remember nothing like that in my latest PT run.

 

[robotrock]

Awful news.

 

[zeroroute]

Just rename yourselves bemani, that's all you're still good for anyway

 

[Neiteio]

Speaking of del Toro, has there been a trailer for Crimson Peak yet? Feel like I've seen more of the new Star Wars than his next film.

edit: never mind, found one

 

[TatteredHat]

Silent Hills is dead and with it so is Konami.

 

[Acrylic7]

 

[BizzyBum]

And now it's official that no one likes Konami anymore.

The "glitch" part have different messages.

 

[ramoisdead]

Konami is a crappy company. Hopefully someone buys them up, or they sell their IPs.

I hope some other company buys Konami so they can use those Hudson IPs.

Wasn't that movie not being made because it wasn't "marketable"?


Plus this sucks. It was looking to be a great horror game which is rare these days.

 

[Super_Cobra]

Let Sony pick up the slack Konami. Don't let silent hills die . I loved pt.

 

[Boke1879]

I wonder how much the Silent Hill IP is worth?

 

[scrambles]

Kojima has destroyed my brain.
I actually believe this is a PR stunt and will be announced at e3.
PT is the world's first playable teaser.
Made by a guy who just loves to mess with people.
The world's first successful video game viral campaign??

I've lost it haven't I?

 

[Bluekaveli]

Yooooooooo rofl

 

[Mato]

Konami has lost so much by losing Kojima. They lost their biggest visionary. He had a vision and he rightfully desired to rise in the hierarchy of the company. Others felt threatened and outed him. Now what's left of the company is a broken carcass of shareholders and executives with no passion for the craft of their business. Go to hell Konami. Sell your IPs and go.

 

[Vitacat]

This is so heartbreaking. The PT demo was one of the most interesting and intense horror gaming experiences I've ever had and made me feel so good about owning a PS4 knowing a quality Silent Hill game was coming. And now it's not. :-/

Poe's law is strong in this one.

 

[Neiteio]

Crimson Peak looks amazing

Not sure it'll scratch that Pan's Labyrinth itch, but looks promising

 

[sn00zer]

WTF this is trending on Facebook..... had no idea people cared this much

 

[cripterion]

That Japanese business pride/honor. As many have mentioned before, it's the Capcom/Inafune situation all over again.

Once your out, you're out for life. You and everything you made doesn't exist.

It's not only in business, as a foreigner if you father children and get divorced you literally don't exist either and all your rights are gone.

It's just so ass backwards

 

[Deleted member 80556]

How did The Evil Within end up selling?

Pretty well, actually. It got into the top 5 (or top 10?) of retail sales in the US. And I'm pretty sure that Bethesda said they were happy with the sales.

Wasn't that movie not being made because it wasn't "marketable"?

I think that the movie is getting made, but it's going to be PG13.

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

I wish i could leave a message like on Bloodborne. Reeks of E3.

You people are beyond delusional.

 

[JoduanER2]

Nonononono oh my god this is the worst, what is left now, we are all doomed...

 

[msdstc]

Konami have officially become the worst publisher it seems.

 

[AESplusF]

Seeing that just reminded that he is a really great director and made the hurt even worse...

Everywhere says it's rated R

 

[MillionStabs]

Hah! Good one Konami!

...Konami?

 

[-SD-]

 

[Crayolan]

PT looked so promising, and scared me and everyone I knew shitless.

How unfortunate.

 

[Servbot24]

If I were Sony I'd be giving Kojima a Japan Studio job offer on a silver platter.

 

[NinjamicWZ]

Too bad there was never a physical copy of PT.

I was talking with some people last week about how all the nostalgia I have for most of the NES-era Japanese greats is gone. They're just as bad or worse. The same sheisty companies that wouldn't let their devs be credited in games back then, are still the companies that will ruin anyone/anything for a buck, for pride or out of sheer ignorance now. Praise be to the talent and the everlasting ideas they had. I support you.

 

[sn00zer]

Just awful. Goddamn. We need a big budget horror game so badly and the one hope got shitcanned.

The Evil Within is gonna have to last for a bit I guess. I'm kind of done with hide and seek games after Outlast managed to make the whole concept even more tedious yet still garnered critical praise.

Bloodborne fits this nicely atm. No Im not joking. They really downplayed the horror in reviews and advertising

 

[TheSinkingKnight]

Can't wait to see where Kojima goes to next! Hopefully he brings most of his team with him!

 

[Super_Cobra]

If I were Sony I'd be giving Kojima a Japan Studio job offer on a silver platter.

I wouldn't doubt if they have already done that. Hopefully Sony gives him a studio with all the creative freedom that he wants. Or maybe he can finish the last guardian.

 

[TheSinkingKnight]

Or maybe Ubisoft. He could fix the Splinter Cell series.

 

[xxTHIN_WHITE_DUKExx]

So sad news. Sony bring it back to life.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

It's important to note del Toro was speaking only on collaborating with Kojima, not whether or not the game has been cancelled. "You'll have to go after Konami for those answers," our source said.

[JehutyGR]

Fuck everything.
Konami is dead.

 

[Zee-Row]

I hate Konami , I wish they would just sell their IPs.

 

[CookTrain]

Bloodborne can get your pulse racing, but I don't know that it tries too hard to generate horror outside of some specific phobias. Maybe an existential crisis on those who get too into the Lovecraft aspects.

 

[Circinus]

That's unfortunate; it looked very promising.

I wonder what Hideo Kojima-san's next endeavours are going to be. Best of luck to him and Konami.

And coinciding with pulling PT?

 

[Damerman]

konami was a mistake

lol

 

[……forgetit]

Sad, but we all knew it was coming

 

[Blurry15]

This. A thousand times this.

 

[Dark_castle]

Dear Konami,

I hope all the bad things in life happen to you and only you.

Yours truly,

Double Jump


edit: the incoming youtube rants will be legendary.

I'm just gonna keep refreshing AlphaOmegaSin's YouTube channel.

 

[anexanhume]

My favorite horror series. So bummed.

 

[Grexeno]

One gif worth a thousand posts.

Even if it isn't dead without Kojima and Del Toro it might as well be, what a goddamn mess
