So could this be bigger than Silent Hills? Could they also be interested in..........Metal Gear?! Paying billions for only one IP is not a smart deal

 

[TomShoe]

Uhmm is this an insult for me or the guy who started it?

I meant the rumor came from some guy's ass, meaning it's a load of shit.

 

[rrc1594]

If MS is going to moneyhat anything, I assume it will be a RPG. I expect reveal of RPG this E3 either First or third party.

 

[Unkle]

Billions could probably buy Konami.

Probably.

Like, seriously, even Reedus has come out before saying how disappointed he was that he didn't get to work on it and/or work with del Toro. 80%!? IGN can be a little suspect at times but reporting on that...

Triology.

 

[AAMARMO]

is there any trusty source can confirm its real or fake?

 

[BlackBuzzard]

Just a reminder: At last year's E3, IGN wrote a story confirming (not even rumoring) that Sony had canceled The Last Guardian. And boy did they double down on that story. No other major outlet reported on that "confirmation".

I do not even think that was the worst story they had last year, remember when they painted Neil Druckmann as the evil force behind Amy Hennig leaving Naughty Dog.

There is a source, called common sense.

They just quoted the damn video and made a rumor artice about it.
Nothing big, they get view from it.

Can we stop talking about nonsense, people?
Let's choose which character name my Ash will be at TLG.

We will just have to wait, but if I was a betting man. I would go for bullshit

Damn I was thinking of posting the same thing.

Id guess LionHeads new ip.

 

[StrongBlackVine]

Making "amends" with first party games he meant, I believe the question is needed to see the context of the tweet.

Btw that MS "struck first" is bullshit, are you implying that if MS had not made a deal for ROTTR then SFV will be multiplatform., if so think again.

You are reading too much into my comment. I never implied that the SFV was related to the ROTTR deal. Only that both companies have deals on a major 3rd party IP now.

 

[AAMARMO]

Remember this

 

[Sharpeye]

That silent hills theory is Ign russian source tier BS.

 

[EdReedFan20]

I do not even think that was the worst story they had last year, remember when they painted Neil Druckmann as the evil force behind Amy Hennig leaving Naughty Dog.

I remember some people genuinely believed someone from Sony "leaked" the cancellation to IGN as retribution for that slanderous Naughty Dog article.

 

[Doffen]

I think that MS will have some type of Mascot MOBA game for Xbox/PC.

Microsoft will push Gigantic to become that game.

 

[sam777]

Fair enough just the way it was worded/the way I read it, made it sound like that.

 

[Caipirinha]

Silent Hills needs to happen more than any other game ever

 

[oti]

MS saving Silent Hills would be glorious.
I don't think it'll happen and I don't even own an Xbox One (yet) but man would that be great. The "console war" machinery needs new fuel.

 

[Unkle]

No Reedus, no Kojima, no Del Toro.

Basically, Microsoft would be paying shitloads for the right to call Alan Wake 2 Silent Hill.

[KAL2006]

If there is a 3rd party exclusive I expect something low key such as The Whore of the Orient from Team Bondi. Though I do believe a Devil May Cry 5 exclusive could also happen, perhaps that is the reason Capcom have ported the last gen games.

 

[rrc1594]

Id guess LionHeads new ip.

One will hope

 

[Bousf]

"Deal is in the billions" claim is just ridiculous xD

I am honestly ready to let Silent Hills go, but if it ever happens, I really hope Konami doesn't get a single penny from its profit.

Also go KHDDD HD!!

Spoiler

*lights 3rd candle to RGHD and RG2 but starts to understand this is getting old*

Good to see his position, but, I'm really sorry to say... It means nothing, really.

 

[Crooked16th]

If Microsoft does buy Silent hill or Konami will we see them announce that you can play PT right now during their e3 conference. Or will it take them a while to port it over to the One.

 

[oti]

Konami hates him so much right now. Or at least the people working at Konami who still care.

"will we see"

no we won't. This is quite possibly the most BS "rumor" we have heard in a long ass time.

If Sony didn't even put it's hand up to save Silent Hills then there is no justice in the world.

,,What is source criticism?'' Top class journalism, as always.

 

[funkystudent]

Buying Silent hill seems kind of pointless for various reasons that are not hard to see.


If they wanted a horror thing there are plenty of indie developers making cool shit these days. Go get Amnesia on xbox or something.


Edit.


"the source says Silent Hills is 80% complete"


FUCKING LOL. Ok. lets move along.

 

[DNAbro]

It's literally just a video that they attach with an article jesus christ do you guys even know how IGN works? Even in the video they say it sounds unbelievable.

 

[Mushroomer25]

God, these people will do anything for a click. Zero vetting. Zero confirmation. Nothing to separate this from a random asshole sending a few smartly worded emails to the right people.

 

[GnawtyDog]

Can't blame Dualshokers when IGN does the same. Well I can actually blame them and wonder why IGN is still allowed. They get plenty of clicks - not sure why the need to go into twitter rumour mill.... TMZ of gaming.

At least the video admits that it sounds sketchy.

Who knows maybe the source took a picture of a piece of paper with Silent Hills on it and Microsoft Games Studios on it.

It worked on Reddit and i do not rate IGN much higher in vetting then Reddit mods.

"For every billion dollars Microsoft might spend on Silent Hills, it would need to sell 1.6 million copies just to break even, assuming it was released as a $60 game."

Math, how does it work?

Lol, silent hills coming back as an Xbox exclusive for billions of dollars? Bullshit!

 

[AAMARMO]

 

[Triggerhappytel]

Just the "80%" claim alone is enough to debunk it. Truly hilarious.

Yep; complete and utter nonsense. Someone is taking the piss out of Rooster Teeth and it's really worked if IGN have picked it up too.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

What the... Why?

Guess guns are blazing on the rumor front
