Hard to know. If Nintendo got hold of Castlevania and actually made one it would be incredible. And I don't really want to get into console wars but I hope you're not insinuating that Nintendo's console specs aren't good enough to pave way for a great Castlevania game. If I'm misreading that, my apologies. Also I'm obviously not talking about Nintendo releasing one on Wii U, but on a future system. But this is all super hypothetical and probably not even worth having a detailed conversation about.
Sorry Norman, but pizza isn't enough to fill the hole in my heart.

Wait this was a movie?
No. The main character was going to be modeled and voiced by him.

There is nothing left to say. From Software and Japan Studio restoring my faith in a revival of Japanese gaming and Konami rushing in to swiftly crush all hopes of such a thing.
This game would have been pure magic; as it is, P.T. is better than most of the games out this gen and it was only a glimpse of what could have been.
Fuck you, Konami. Fuuuuuuck yooooouuuu.

Konami continues their descent into darkness and irrelevancy.
Kind of crazy that "Silent Hills" was trending on Twitter.

This news is bad enough for me, I couldn't go on if I had to miss MGSV as well. I will buy that then be done with them for good.

I'm enjoying the massive public shaming, personally.
Part of me thinks this game is still happening but del Toro's departure is just a natural domino effect of Kojima's departure. The only reason del Toro was ever involved was because he and Kojima are friends. I don't even think del Toro would have contributed much to it, but of course that's impossible to know for sure. The guy is wound up in like a billion other things that he wants to do so I'm just not sure how much attention he would have actually given Silent Hills regardless.
Also, with Silent Hills so far off from that teaser release, I kind of think the whole thing was handled like shit. Yeah, the teaser was awesome and got a lot of people excited, but I get the impression that the actual development of the game was so early that the whole shebang was just incredibly premature. This is nothing new in the gaming (or film) industry, I just wish that these people would get their shit together 100% before announcing anything.
It's like, did Kojima leaving happen overnight? Were they really that confident that Silent Hills was happening to the point where they released a playable teaser for everyone to get excited? I don't know anymore. I feel like the entire management and organization surrounding this game has been haphazard from the beginning.
I mean, how many Castlevania games have been released on Nintendo platforms again over the course of the franchise's existence? And why would Santa Monica be your choice? Lords of Shadow was constantly criticized for being a God of War clone. And for what it's worth, a Simon Belmont Amiibo would be badass. I actually feel like Smash Bros. has always needed a Belmont anyway. I hate Smash Bros. though so I don't really care.
Kojima told his team after this all broke that they will forge ahead to make the best game possible for the fans, MGSV is from Kojima to us.

Time for a new publisher to swoop in, hire Kojima and Del Toro, and produce 'Quiet Plains'
Btw Kojima my wallet is ready and waiting for your kickstarter.

Someone needs to add "Del Toro" near the coach, inSANE on the one and Silent Hills on the other falling guy.
kid tossing that thing should be konami
the one that gets rekt should be mgs
the one who falls by association is silent hills
Yes, we're not that far yet.
Let's pretend that he took advice from Keiji Inafune.
Kojami Entertainment should kickstart Quiet Plains for release in 2018.

Why are people still insisting this is going to get made? Even if it gets made, probably all people who worked on PT are being fired along Kojima come December. This is not going to be what we imagined back when the final sequence of the teaser played. We're never getting that game. Maybe in another form, if Kojima winds up forming a new team, with the help of a publisher.
It's dead, dead, dead. You can't do anything to convince me otherwise.
Whoops, got it confused with At the Mountains of Madness, which will probably be PG-13.

At least we got to pretend like Silent Hill was headed back to greatness there for a few months. It... felt nice while it lasted?
That's better.

Capcom still publishes 2-3 amazing games per year.
Konami releases a new Metal Gear every 2-3 years and thats pretty much it.
I'm confused, do you want a Castelvania in the vein of God of War (or heck similar to the most recent Mercury games)? Do you want a game especially high on gore and violence (more so that the stylized norm of most Castlevania games)? You mention Symphony of the Night (lets ignore that Aria or Sorrow or Order of Ecclesia were also excellent games in the series that came out on Nintendo platforms though none of those three games were developed by Nintendo or Sony anyway) so I assumed you wanted a game in a 2D plane. I'd trust Nintendo (whose development talents are diverse) with a 2D plane games more than I would Santa Monica.

Holy shit. This is the most depressing picture I have ever laid eyes on...
looks like he found out through the article.
That´s actually cool,i wouldn't mind a spiritual successor with that name.
Konami not taking another chance on Castlevania seems to have more to do with them basically bowing out of the gaming market.
