Oh that's bullsh*t.
It was bad enough when I found out that Silent Hill: Homecoming wasn't due to launch in Europe until November, but now it's become known that Konami's latest horror extravaganza won't be arriving until February 2009.
No reason has been given for the date slip, but the title will now be in almost direct competition with Capcom's Resident Evil 5, which is bloody ridiculous. Hopefully that doesn't mean the game is due for an even later release to avoid such a scenario, but at this rate, who knows?
I admit I wasn't keen on the way the title was looking, but after the glowing review from Colette, Dale and DMV, I was all for it. It'll be a while yet before this sorry Brit gets to enjoy his next trip to Silent Hill.

Enjoy your neutered Silent Hill.
as we all know, one pirated copy does not always equal one lost sale, but if the product is already available in another region, in english, then disgruntled would be buyers will not hesitate to steal this game.
