Silent Hill: Shattered Memories gets new logo, screenshots photo

It looks like Konami decided to listen to me when I said "eewwwww" to the original logo for Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. The publisher has unveiled the game's new logo, which maintains the icy-look of the initial logo, but looks a bit grittier, and fits a bit better with other logos in the series. 

The new screens, on the other hand, aren't doing much to help things for this Wii, PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable title. I'm not sure who chooses and approves these things, but including a screen of two generic looking white people just standing there isn't really throwing off that "survival horror" vibe they should be going for. Creepy looking wrapped-in-bacon monster in an alley? Totally. A George Bush lookalike and the head of the Silent Hill Middle School PTA? Not so much. 

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is set to ship this fall, and by all accounts, looks like it might be a good time. Just try to release some more convincing screenshots, Konami.

There aren't many people in the world that deserve to suffer the horror of Silent Hill more than George Bush.

This game just can't seem to do anything to stop people from laughing at it. It's almost like they intentionally chose the screenshot because he looked like Dubya.

Don't suppose they might have chosen that particular screen because, at least where ps2/wii is concerned, those are pretty damn good-looking models. In motion, as almost always, it probably looks even better. Just sayin'.

Puzzles will be more realistic on Wii i think.It would be refreshing to play if the whole game is like a hybrid of PS2-Haunting Ground and PS1-Hellnight.

Hey,at least it's not an on-rail shooter like other Wiimake! of horror games.

I'm not sure I'd go so far as to say I'm excited for this, but I am intrigued. Mechanically, Silent Hill has needed a kick up the arse for a long time.
