Silent Hill Origins Heading to PS2
3:00AM Brian Crecente | The sorta poorly received Silent Hill Origins is making the jump from Playstation Portable to Playstation 2, Konami said today. The title is currently in development for the last-gen console. “Console gamers can now expect the same chilling, suspenseful and fear-filled experience that handheld gamers encountered when we released Silent Hill Origins on the PSP system,” said Anthony Crouts, Vice President of Marketing for Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. “This is their chance to learn more of the mystery and mythos surrounding Silent Hill that’s been hinted at in earlier games and made the series such a success.” The game will still have you playing as Travis Grady, trucker extraordinare, but will also include updated controls for combat. Zero P will be so happy. More »
Retailers All But Confirm Silent Hill Origins PS2 Port
11:38AM Michael McWhertor | We first brought word last month that Konami’s PSP original effort Silent Hill Origins would get the profit-maximizing PlayStation 2 port, like many PSP games before it. Today, we have more evidence. SCEA and Konami reps decided not to comment on the rumoured game when we asked about it in December, but that doesn’t stop retailers GameFly and Amazon from essentially confirming it, two listings dug up by Siliconera. Both companies now feature box art and release dates for the PS2 port, which is expected to ship in March. Amazon’s details on the port don’t mention any additions to Silent Hill Origins, so we expect something quick and dirty. Well, probably not dirty, but you know what I mean.

2:15PM Brian Crecente | The latest Zero Punctuation almost had me fooled, I thought, for a second, that it was going to heap lots of love on the game, in that punctuation-free, staccato burst of insight that we’ve all come to know and love. But in fact, Ben Croshaw, you guessed it, hates Silent Hill: Origins also. Stop the presses. Zero Punctuation: Silent Hill Origins [The Escapist Magazine] More »
Silent Hill PSP Demo Escapes Onto Internet
12:00AM Kotaku US Edition | Something so evil. . .cannot be contained. If I were Climax CEO Karl Jeffery that is exactly how I would have responded to news that the demo for upcoming PSP title Silent Hill Origins began appearing on torrent sites this past Sunday, days before the game was due to be shown at Leipzig. Instead he reacted to the news that thousands of people were downloading the code to game with a much less interesting but probably much more effective CYA statement. “All I can say is that code did not leak from Climax – 100 per cent guaranteed,” said Jeffery. “The code that is out there is fingerprinted and was supplied solely to Konami for marketing purposes.” So the build being swiped from torrent sites all over the world was in Konami’s hands? It’s coming from inside the house! Silent Hill PSP demo leaked online [GamesIndustry.biz] More »Silent Hill Origins Gameplay
10:30AM Luke Plunkett | Fresh from the showroom floor at Leipzig, here’s some gameplay footage of Silent Hill Origins. Looks suitably moody. And slow. And considering it’s on the PSP, pretty damn nice. More »
