Why Isn’t Silent Hill 4 In The Silent Hill HD Collection?

Posted By | On 23rd, Aug. 2011

There are two main kinds of answer to this question, either: ‘Because it’s rubbish’ or ‘because it tried doing something different.’ I’m going to be difficult and say its because half the game is literally spent backtracking. However, when the folks at Siliconera caught up with Silent Hill producer Tomm Hulett, they asked for his opinion on the matter:

“We really wanted to focus on the we knew fans cared the most about since we needed to put in the effort to put them in HD, redo the sound, and do all these things, we didn’t want to give them something we weren’t sure the wanted 100%.”

“If you’re a Silent Hill fan you either love 2 or 3 the best. Here, you get both of them. Everyone’s happy. If they like the HD treatment, maybe there’s more in the future, but for now that’s all we’re concentrating on.”

Speaking of the HD collection, check out a sneak peek of the new SH 2 voice acting below. It sounds a bit too emotive for my old skool horror sensibility…
