10 Video Game Franchises That Died During the Last Generation

SILENT HILL

This one still hurts, and probably always will. Silent Hill was on the verge of its glorious and bombastic comeback in the eighth console generation. It took the industry by storm with P.T., and we were all waiting with bated breath to see what Hideo Kojima could do with a full-fledged game in the series. But all our dreams crashed and burned- Kojima left Konami, Silent Hills was cancelled, and P.T. was nuked off the face of the earth, leaving us all in the lurch. Leaks keep on insisting that the horror series is gearing up for a comeback in the not-too-distant future, but even so, we’ll never stop wondering what could have been if Kojima had been allowed to fulfil his vision.
