Brad, I Hope You Didn’t Mean This

by David Liao · May 5th, 2010 · 17 Comments

Yesterday, Brad mentioned to me something that he thought would appeal to me regarding the new MGS Peacewalker. He mentioned Snake, a female character, and a beach. I really hope this wasn’t what he meant because there is no way that….wait, she started dancing. Ok, it’s not bad. But still this isn’t exactly what would [...]

Next Silent Hill to be an FPS?

by Joseph Christ · April 21st, 2010 · 15 Comments

Word is floating around the gaming web that Vatra Games is creating the next Silent Hill as an FPS.  And as some of the fanbase rends its clothes and gnashes its teeth at the very thought of the series eschewing the third person perspective I, on the other hand, think its a dandy idea.

Silent Hill Shifts Studios Again and Returns to HD Consoles

by Nick Henderson · April 12th, 2010 · 9 Comments
