Retroid's fifth episode was dedicated to Horror games, and it's finally ready for your listening pleasure. I was joined by Conor Elsea, Aaron Yost, and Joanna Mueller, and we talked about horror-themed games like Resident Evil and Friday th...

Daniel Licht, who created haunting music for some of entertainment's darker franchises, died yesterday after a battle with cancer. He was 60 years old.Detroit-born Licht is known for his work in the later Silent Hill iterations, including D...

Super Bomberman R may have not have set the world on fire on release, but Konami is trying their best to keep it from being a full-on bomb. With a free DLC update fixing many of its issues, and with good early sales numbers, Konami could re...

In 2006, while the main studio was working on handheld titles, including the PSP's Silent Hill: Origins, Climax Los Angeles was working on a pitch for a PS3-exclusive Silent Hill built in Unreal Engine 3. While Konami liked Climax enough t...

An artist from the team behind Alien Isolation has created a short but atmospheric teaser in tribute to horror series, Silent Hill. James Brady — an environment QA artist for Creative Assembly — recreated the series’ trad...

You may have heard that Mondo will be selling four pretty amazing posters at Emerald City Comicon, but there's another surprise in the mix as well. The company has announced that there will be a pair of limited edition vinyl soundtracks for...

Shattered Memories opens with a perfect family moment captured on VHS. A young girl proclaims undying love for her father, before the tape stops, rewinds, and replays the scene again. The repetition continues until that warm feeling in your...

Fans have recreated the P.T./Silent Hills teaser in a real-life video. Shooting in live-action and adding the sounds and score from the actual demo, this trailer does a fantastic job of emulating the disquieting uneasiness of the origi...

After P.T., a lot of people were excited for the Hideo Kojima/Guillermo del Toro/Norman Reedus joint Silent Hills, right up until the point it was canceled. Scratch that; people were still excited about the idea, including Norman Reedus him...

If you want to get Zack Furniss's attention, mentioning Phantasmagoria, Silent Hill, and P.T. while having a Babadook-lookin' homie in your game is sure bet. SadSquare Studios is attempting to crowdfund Visage, its take ...

I don't put my nerd glasses on very often, but here goes: Man at Arms made Pyramid Head's Great Knife, but they chose the worst version of it and the worst game as inspiration. In Silent Hill 2, the Great Knife was a vicious slab of metal t...

Silent Hill: Origins opened with an outsider saving a little girl from a house fire. But when you look back on its place in the series, it meant so much more than a simple rescue. Travis Grady had problems of his own, but they meant very li...

If you're still salty over the cancellation of Silent Hills, you are not alone. Norman Reedus - who's likeness was used in the (terrifying) Silent Hills interactive teaser P.T. -- is still "super bummed" about the whole thing, but recently ...

What makes the difference between houses and homes? Is it the space itself or the people inhabiting them? Is it down to the memories we create for ourselves or the aged familiarity of the spaces around us? And if a room is indifferent to ou...

Silent Hills being cancelled was bad enough for some, but I reckon the constant dribble of information about what could’ve been seeping out in the months following it has to be even worse. Now here’s a little bit more of that d...

Oh hey, it's that time again where we get to learn why Silent Hills would have been the perfect best game ever if it had not been cancelled. Hooray for more quotes about this cancelled game. So, according to Guillermo Del Toro, there w...

What was that? You're finally ready to let go of what Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro could have brought to Silent Hills? Though you long to see what could have been, you've accepted that all you'll have is P.T., if you're among those w...

Silent Hill 3 is a mean-spirited game, but then that was always the point. In order to value her future, Heather Mason is dragged, kicking and screaming, through the muck and mire of her past. Yes, she’s given the tools to fight back,...

Konami is celebrating the music of Silent Hill with a live concert UK series, led by Silent Hill composer and producer, Akira Yamaoka. The show will be coming to five UK cities: Bristol (October 29), Cardiff (October 30), London (November ...

Remember that hot new Castlevania pachinko game featuring "erotic violence?" Well, I'm guessing the reception was so positive that Konami decided to announce a new Silent Hill slot machine. Hurray! Just what we have been asking f...

It started with a worried look in mirror dimly lit. For Silent Hill 2, this was a statement of intent; a progression in not only hardware, but also in narrative. Out went the B-movie horror about gods and the occult, and in its place was so...

Horror games, as much as I love them, have a serious problem right now.   In the modern-day media maelstrom, almost every scare, monster, and plot twist is given away or hinted at before a game is released. Of course, us writers are no...

Silent Hills was a dream game. Specifically, it was my dream game. If you asked me before P.T. crept onto the PSN servers what series I'd most like to see rejuvenated in a bold new way, I would have probably told you Silent Hill. If you ask...

Western horror, Eastern eyes. That was what made Silent Hill memorable for a generation. It was visceral and relentless, oppressive and paranoid, and underlined with a tragic tale that hadn’t been seen on the normally escapist PlaySta...

Though Konami wants to "scorch the earth" and deny that P.T. was possibly the best game reveal in the history of forever (do I still sound bitter?), there are some determined to keep the dream -- or nightmare -- alive. Christian Kesler bega...
