[Rumor] Microsoft in talks to purchase Silent Hills from Konami.

tldw: So the ex-Machinima team / Roosterteeth crew have a source (that was previously reliable in leaking the kinect-less xbone bundle) that is saying Microsoft is looking to purchase the Silent Hills IP for 'billions'.

Silent Hills being the PT demo thing with Norman Reedus that was being directed by Kojima in collaboration with Guillermo del Toro before Konami imploded and ran away to mobile.

Can't say I'd miss it at all if it went exclusive tbh. But then I'm not a fan of series in the first place.

Update: https://archive.is/75pgl
Spencer saying rumor is fake. Take from that what you will. When Funhaus's source was talking about the kinectless xbone MS was saying they would never do it. Grains of salt either way.

the first thing i thought of was "here comes an FPS wearing horror skin(hue)", but seriously if it gets made as it was intended that will be great for fans of the series. never was a fan of horror, but i know how hyped everyone was for it.

Horror games are dumb, but I hope this is true. Fuck Kojima.

Was confused at first at the Kojima butt-hurt.
Then I remembered Quiet triggers you.

This news probably has little to do with Kojima, and I doubt he'd care either way.

Verbatim · May 30, 2015, 12:32:26 AM

I've ALWAYS hated Kojima. Always. The Quiet thing was just yet another reason to throw onto the pile.

Ye...have fun with that I suppose.

Verbatim · May 30, 2015, 12:33:31 AM

The point is, if the game is being revived, Kojima will have nothing to do with it. Which is good.

I watched them more on Machinima for some reason. But this vid caught my eye when scrolling through my sub list.

If this is true, this really pisses me the fuck off.

PS4 has no games is going to become a big reality if this happens.

Each time I think of Kojima or Konami, I keep thinking about this video.

I think you should direct your hate to Konami.

Verbatim · May 30, 2015, 01:25:13 AM

They're kind of an easy target, though.

Luciana · May 30, 2015, 01:32:13 AM

Or you could always do both

yeah do that

Verbatim · May 30, 2015, 01:33:41 AM

I do. I wasn't excluding them. I just don't see the point in saying "fuck Konami" when everyone else is already doing it.

True Turquoise · May 30, 2015, 01:59:32 AM

I mean, for once this could be a good thing, right?

Better than Konami taking it to mobile I suppose.
Haven't really been a fan of MS's direction with exclusives, but I guess Spencer hasn't really had enough time to turn the ship yet. Hard to say how the game itself would end up. Supposedly its mostly finished.

One less scary game to worry about accidentally seeing in the ps store I guess

I'll make you play it, boy. Tape your eyes and tie you to a chair.

Makes no difference to me.
Now I can just cry into my Xbone controller instead

Septy · May 30, 2015, 03:34:19 AM

I never paid attention to this game and know nothing about it other than the fact Norman Reedus is on the cover.

Just release the original games on the Playstation store already and I'll be happy.
