Reminds me of Silent Hill 1, 2, and 3.

reminds me of toe jam and earl

Looks scarier than RE4, but RE4 looks cooler.

Also, reminds me of the Vanilla Dome ghost house in Super Mario World.

I downloaded the trailer!!
And I cant wait!!Superb!!

I hope the real game is as good as we expect

reminds me of......
*relizes all the funny lines have been taken...runs away

[clips]

won\'t let me download..some crap about security settings!

must have something top do with how my job has this pc set up.

Does that crawling girl remind anyone of Sadako? If not, it should. She\'s so cute *luvs*

I just saw the trailer and all I got to say is that : *makes weird gesture and honking sounds in place of a gazillionmabilliongadillion superlatives and a long rant about how he needs a new PS2 to play this game*

Yeah she does.When I saw the video with my sister thats the very first thing we thought when we saw the trailer

NEW Silent Hill 4 screens!

This is from a german mag "Playzone".


Could this be Harry\'s home?  A motel, or apartment?  
Humm.... a playpen for a young child.  These shots is clues on the next Silent Hill.




This one is from PS2 magazine.  The "Chair".



Also another thing, James Sunderland in the Silent Hill 4, Could this be....

This was found in a Silent Hill 4: The room promo t-shirt.  Looks like him peeling off the wall.





This is how James look.

I\'ve read somewhere that SH4 went into developement right after SH2. So SH3 was kind of a quick fix game, an inbetween sideproject. No wonder it felt a bit \'off\'  to me.......SH4\'s been the big fish all along.

Oh, and btw, real sweet by Konami to bring it to the Xbox as well. And also ; RE looks really cool yes, but also a bit like a crossing between a watered down Half Life 2 engine and RE characters.

<- Still haven\'t played part 2 yet.

Yep, I suck.

I thought it was the same team members until I\'ve seen this post from a board member at GA.

SH4 went into development right after SH2 was completed, SH3 was done by different team members, the core of SH2\'s team though were working on SH4 though while SH3 was in development. This game clearly doesn\'t take place in Silent Hill though, or its a different time period because you\'ve got traffic all over the place now. Its not empty foggy streets anymore.

Also some information about the town.

Well according to Yamaoka the city the game takes place in now is Ashfield which is a townside out of Silent Hill. The places they show in the trailer really doesn\'t look much like Silent Hill, or atleast not sections of it that we\'ve seen so far.

Here\'s a new GI magazine preview.

March 2004 issue page 76

Like jason Voorhees from the friday the 13th movies, the town of silent hill keeps coming back to eat away your sanity and chill you to the bone. With the realese of SH4: the room, the scariest series ever will take you into far darker places than any game has yet dared. Producer Akira Yamaoka Promises that SH4 will disturb players in a profound new way by taking away safety of their confort zones - the very place they live.
The terror of SH4 begins where the protagonist, henry townsend, feels the most secure- his apartment.

One day, he discovers that he is traped in his home and spends countless days confind within. His sanity eroding, he takes the first exit he can find: a portal that has mysteriosly appeared in his bathroom. The portal takes him to other worlds filled with ghouls and demons, and he must brave these hideous locations if he is to find out what insidious force has trapped him in his home.
The titular home will grow more warped and mutated as Henry proceeds through his quest, offering less and less safety from the horros that lurk in the portal.

SH4 will offer players less solace from the terrors as well, thanks to a number of new features desigend to keep the game as intense as possible. For the first time ever, much of the game is veiwed in first person to involve players more directly in action. The claustrophobic room will be seen exclusivly in this veiwpoint, as will about half the game. If the action gets to frenzied, players will no longer be able to pause the game and take a breather. The inventory screen is now real-time window that pops up for item access, but does not stop the action onscreen. If a monster is charging at you, quickly finding the right wepon to fend it off is the only way to survive.


Of course, the combat systum has been modified to help henrys chances of survival. Players will be able to adjust the strength of the blows mid swing with a feature akin to a golf or gladious. One press of the button will start henrys wepon swinging, and another press at the right time will dictate the force of the blow. However, there will be no meter to indicate the perfect moment, so learning through practice is the only option.


Yamaoka was quite secretive as to how the room ties on with the rest of the series, but he did say many familiar locations will show up in even more horrifying forms. The visuals are darker and grittier then before, and much of it has the look of scratched old film flickering from an antique projector at a midnight move. Based on everything we have seen, Silent hill 4 will have you checking the dark corners of your own home, and wondering just how safe you really are in your room.
