Looks a lot like that indeed.

Indeed, Silent Hills was too good for this woefully imperfect world.



Holy garbage... This was the perfect storm. And Konami had to mess this up.



Something I read today:

"The more you look at MGSV and what Silent Hills was going to be, it's clear: Kojima is expensive. del Toro, Reedus - expensive alone. Add another established person, Ito, plus w.e development scope there was (probably big). Konami doesn't want to shell out that much money.
And honestly, we know he's sad too, but do we really think Norman Reedus would be cheap? He's in one of the biggest shows right now.Would the Pacific Rim director be cheap? Silent Hills was going to be too expensive for a publisher doing well outside of AAA games.
So while we can throw hate at Konami, if they can't (or don't want to make AAA games), Koji Pro were big spenders. Very big spenders."
