In retrospect, how bad was it?

t. konami, this isn't the usual soul vs soulless shit.
You're best off with either the PS2 version or PC with fixes. The SH3 pc port is actually quite solid and SH2 has the enhanced edition.

People try to boil this down into 2 or 3 "bullet points" but the fact is every single inch of the game is fucked up. Like as soon you fire up Silent Hill 2 and see that lake background image that looks like its in negative and the acoustic music is replaced with an electric guitar you know you are in for some shit.

Its every single aspect. Not 1 centimeter of the game escape unscathed. Some shit like pic related doesn't even make any sense "yeah go ahead and retexture that gotta make it look good". And the weird vaseline haze makes everything look far worse than the original PS2 game anyway.

They were going to cancel it due to quality reasons.

It was incredibly bad
youtu.be/wya4XhTPMcc?list=PL87676CF7D0B816B4

Breaks my heart that this didn't get a miracle patch like ZOE2 HD did.

Imagine if someone paid you to remaster Silent Hill, and then they gave you this broken hodgepodge of code and assets that was clearly nowhere near the final version. Then imagine you crunch and crunch trying to get the game into a shippable state, but Konami eventually force you to ship what you have and won't let you keep working on the game post-release.

SH HD is a fucked re-release because Konami had no quality standards. Same reason Metal Gear Solid 3 HD is so flawed.

Posting Twin Perfect videos should be a bannable offence.

Using comic sans when you're pressed for time and want a "hand drawn" looking font is an acceptable compromise. I remember some of Rareware's older games using Comic Sans when they ported them to Game Boy.

The ideal solution is to identity the original font and reproduce it. But the short term solution is to use a quick placeholder, and then figure it out later. Silent Hill HD is riddled with placeholders for a number of reasons:

The game needed something like another 12 months of work.

The texture quality in Silent Hill 2 in particular is dogshit. There was no way they could keep the original textures mixed with improved ones because of how hideous the original game looks by contrast.

The only way to play these games is the original PS2 cds or PC version

I pirated the latter but wish I had the former because it would be a nice addition to my ps2 collection

There's nothing specifically wrong with most of the changes there. A shutter fits the architecture. The new doors are better. The floor is a tricky one. The original floor is a low resolution mess. A lot of the "dirty" look stems from the shit texture quality. They're not using grime decals like a more modern game would do. The new texture work is a decent first pass on a cement tile floor.

I would put some damage on the shutters, even if it's just to make it weathered

Why did they even use beta code and assets.
Bluepoint takes all their code and assets from final retail disc's and while not perfect their remaster are by far the best ones in the market.

Jesus fucking crhsit do not listen to these fucking niggers. 2 is fine and got patched and can be a solid playthrough. 3, no, I'll give them that one. But you can play it right now easily on your ps4 doing the PSnow trial without the hassle of the cocks smoking emulators

>Bluepoint takes all their code and assets from final retail disc's and while not perfect their remaster are by far the best ones in the market.
This is a retarded way to do remasters that you don't ever do unless it's the last resort. You do realise that Blood Fresh Supply and Turok 1/2 were done this way? And those have issues because the recreation isn't perfect. Bluepoint managed to fuck up Metal Gear Solid 3, too.

Wasn't the KH HD collections the same, I don't remember people having many issues with those until the PS4 ports where the rushed 60fps conversion caused a shit load of issues

Nigger they had 2 years.
The original game took 2 years to make.

Quality bait, adding another (you)

Ico and SotC turned out fine
And reverse engineering is still better than using fucking unfinished code

the voice acting is better in the HD versions, original voice acting is terrible and feels right out of those early PS1 games where nobody really knew how to do voice acting in video games yet

they're pretty bad, but every complaint they demonstrate in this video is solid

>Nigger they had 2 years.
They worked on the project "over a year". They needed far more time to fix the games.

>Ico and SotC turned out fine
Those were rather simple games by comparison.

I love how people forget that Team Silent's own ports to other platforms are broken in various ways, BTW. Lighting and shadowing in the non-PS2 versions is completely wrong.

>the voice acting is better in the HD versions
Fuck no it's not. Even if you don't like the original voices (which is retarded since they're great), the HD ones are shit on their own. Everyone sounds like they aren't even trying or like the voice director thought this was some shitty anime. Especially with Yuri Lowenthal in the cast.

Bait.

neck yourself faggot.

>Those were rather simple games by comparison.
Yeah a top down survival horror with tank controls is a technological marvel.
>I love how people forget that Team Silent's own ports to other platforms are broken in various ways, BTW. Lighting and shadowing in the non-PS2 versions is completely wrong.
So? The PC version was patched by fans. How come a literal studio couldnt do that to a decade-old game boggles the mind

>And reverse engineering is still better than using fucking unfinished code
No it isn't. If you use original code, even unfinished code, you're able to trust that your solution is accurate instead of eyeballing it, then hoping you got it right after the fact.

Also, there's no fucking point writing a COMPLETELY NEW ENGINE for a game if you HAVE THE SOURCE CODE FOR THE ORIGINAL ENGINE. That's just pants on head retarded. Imagine telling Stalker modders, "Oh, why don't you guys just RECREATE THE X-RAY ENGINE FROM SCRATCH instead of using the publicly available X-RAY ENGINE SOURCE CODE!"

When did gamers start getting so dumb?

Sasuke Lowenthal as Vincent is probably one of the biggest character assassinations in videogames.
Nevermind Heather now sounding like a sassy anime girl from a persona game.

>the voice acting is better in the HD versions
Nigga I played 3 on the HD version with my buddies and was super confused on heather's voice. Everyone sounded like an anime character.

>Yeah a top down survival horror with tank controls is a technological marvel.
Silent Hill games are extremely fiddly under the hood.
>So? The PC version was patched by fans.
Over decades.
>How come a literal studio couldnt do that to a decade-old game boggles the mind
Because porting a game to new platforms AND remastering it is a time consuming process made more difficult when the game studio in question is uncommunicative and gives you broken materials to work with. Also when the games themselves are fiddly messes that were heavily geared around the PS2.

When Capcom handed Okami off to Read At Dawn for remastering, Ready At Dawn discovered that they'd been incomplete and outdated source files. So Capcom delayed the project until Ready At Dawn were happy with it. The same didn't happen with Konami's remasters because they didnt give a shit. Capcom released an improved PC port of RE4 and then further improved it post-release. Konami stopped releasing Silent Hill games on PC outright, and prevented the developers of Downpour and SH: HD from releasing the patches they wanted to do.

>Because porting a game to new platforms AND remastering it is a time consuming process made more difficult when the game studio in question is uncommunicative and gives you broken materials to work with. Also when the games themselves are fiddly messes that were heavily geared around the PS2.
This whole retarded argument fucking crashes and burns the moment you take into consideration that both games have fully working PC versions and did the moment they started working for the HD collection.

The voice acting in Silent Hill 1 & 2 is fine. A couple of the characters have bad/cheesy VA's but the main cast did a decent job.

>Capcom released an improved PC port of RE4 and then further improved it post-release.
Shame that the 10 fps rifle reload animation is still there to this day even on the switch, it's so jarring every time I play it.

inb4 the tomm hulett defense force come in to declare that he dindu nuffin wrong and all those times he made a complete buffoon of himself in public and demonstrated he knew nothing about silent hill were "jokes"

Hijinx isn't even on the same level as other remaster studios, let alone Team Silent.

>Bluepoint
The founder of Bluepoint was one of the main programmers on Turok 3, and the entire reason Turok 3 hasn't been ported to PC is that reverse engineering the entire game in a new middleware engine and ensuring it behaved exactly like a Frankenstein of the original game and its assortment of less broken beta versions would be an extremely time consuming process.

"Just use the assets from the original game" is supremely idiotic advice. Nobody does that if they have the original game's source code. (Especially since the PS2 copy would have awful compressed audio, awful washed out textures, and such.) If it was that simple, people would have just, you know, written a new Silent Hill engine. These things take a loooooooong time. Look at how long the Morrowind engine recreation has taken, and it is still missing features. We have engine recreations for many old PC games, but you don't see people making engine recreations for Silent Hill because that shit will take so, so long.

The engine recreation for Blade Runner on ScummVM took over three years. And there were years of off-hand research going on before that. Some things simply can't be rushed. You can't just say, "Get this done in 6 months." It takes time and careful consideration of the problem. Collaboration with outsiders. Careful bug testing. They're still fixing bugs in their recreation of Blade Runner. github.com/scummvm/scummvm/commits/master/engines/bladerunner

>both games have fully working PC versions and did the moment they started working for the HD collection.
PC versions of SH2/3 are pretty much universally worse than the PS2 versions. And the PC versions are absolutely useless for porting purposes.

>Using comic sans when you're pressed for time and want a "hand drawn" looking font is an acceptable compromise
No, it's not.

Attached: comic.php.gif (700x484, 41K)

Nothing wrong with Hijinx. Good programmers are good programmers. Gamers have this bizarre attachment to brand names.

Comic Sans is perfectly fine for emergency purposes. If you had 3 minutes to find a generic font to temporarily replace a painted sign texture in a game, which font would you use?

I would just draw it by hand, and save it as a little image file. And before you say it, no, that is not an unreasonable thing to expect someone in charge of creating art assets to do.

Imagine being on the TimeSplitters 2/3 port team right now, and someone on the team demands that you don't use the slightly battered source code from Crytek's vault because, "Herpaderp, let's just write an entirely new engine and then import the assets from the Xbox versions because that totally makes sense and will totally result in fewer bugs and inaccuracies."

Arial black

>let's just write an entirely new engine and then import the assets from the Xbox versions because that totally makes sense and will totally result in fewer bugs and inaccuracies.
That makes sense, the Original Xbox is an old ass console. How much of the source code would they realistically use?

>How much of the source code would they realistically use?
Most of it. Crytek UK already ported TimeSplitters 2 to PC/Xbox One/PS4 inside Homefront: The Revolution. It was done by a small number of people and was a cut down demo. TimeSplitters 2/3 were written with multiplatform development in mind, and aside from writing a new renderer for modern APIs and tweaking the controls, not much needed changing.

Tomm Hulett did nothing wrong. Guy was just a producer who loved Silent Hill and fought to keep the series on track despite Konami's overbearing pressure.

Fuck the Silent Hill fanbase, incidentally. Bunch of retards.

Loving Silent Hill means being realistic about its flaws insteas of behaving like a giant weeb that sucks SH2's dick. That's exactly the kind of person you want on production. Slobbering fanboys should be kept out of the room.

>hey konami did you know you can't just re-use other people's work without their permission? because we never gave you permission to re-use our voices

>That's exactly the kind of person you want on production
As evidenced by the HD collection.

What the ever loving Christ are you talking about? This isn' another of those idiotic conspiracy theories, is it? Konami wanted the voice acting redone. Behind the scenes drama aside, offering an option was a viable compromise in SH2. But not SH3 due to engine issues.

Why even "remaster" at all just fucking slap that shit on PSN if you want easy money from people incapable of using a PS2??

You do understand that Konami upper management was 100% at fault and forced the devs to first replace the acting then release an unfinished remaster, right? I know SH fans are retards, but how do people not know this?

I'm sure Konami was right there telling them to put Comic Sans for the town sign or to make sure to be so shit at their jobs that the game crashes constantly and the fog effect doesn't work, those evil bastards. Then they took remote control of Tomm and made him act like a complete douche.

What the fuck did Guy do to you?

Should Hulett have allowed Konami to put Pyramid Head into every single Silent Hill game? Because that's what they were pushing for.

>What part of SH HD being unfinished is unclear to you?
Konami didn't port the game. There's only so much blame you can pass off, Tomm.

My only problem with Tomm was when he tried to play off Silent Hill HD as being perfectly fine.

Konami forced the release date, dipshit. We have interviews with people who worked on the project. We know exactly what happened.

it really wouldn't have mattered. the games couldn't have gotten much worse after 4.

If you squint and plug your ears it looks fine.

>Konami forced the release date, dipshit
They could have made a quality product in the allotted time. Seriously with how shit it turned out you gotta wonder if a time extension was going to do anything.

Are there any quotes from after release where he denied the issues? Because if Konami hadn't forced the game to release unfinished it would have been fine.

You have never worked on a project like this in your life. You have no idea what you're talking about. I bet you think D3T were at fault with Shenmue HD even though they blatantly weren't.

>it's never anyone's fault when they fuck up, they just needed more time!
Excuses.

Why can't this series keep a consistent logo? I'm pretty sure every single mainline game has a different logo.

>Guy threatened a fansite with a lawsuit because they thanked Jeremy Blaustein for helping get everyone back together
>told everyone before he was hired for SH2 that he was homeless, despite the fact he's a fucking millionaire

>hire Major Kusanagi's VA to voice Mary/Maria when she can only do one voice, the Major.
The new cast is pretty baffling.

So what you're saying is that when Midway forced Harvey Smith's Blacksite: Area 51 to jump from alpha to Gold, the devs should have magically delivered a polished finished product without needing an extra year of work.

She's been singing Silent Hill songs for years. Makes sense to give her a bone. Her Origins theme is particularly sublime.

No they should have had their work done by the release date.

not him but I've worked on audit projects for multi-million dollar companies and I think the HD collection was poorly handled.

>told everyone before he was hired for SH2 that he was homeless, despite the fact he's a fucking millionaire

>Is this true?

This is entirely true. There should be a decent length interview with Jeremy Blaustein. SH2 is brought up. And Guy is particular is brought up.

Despite the fact that Jeremy does think that Guy was a great James, he also thinks Guy is a human piece of garbage.

Name a single thing Tomm did wrong. That's right. You can't. I love how people stick their fat little retard fingers in their ears and hate the people who tried to do the right thing because their fee fees were hurt.

For example, why does Book of Memories get hate directed at Tomm? The gameplay formula was Konami's mandate. He was just a producer.

where's the sauce, user?

I don't understand why they had the original audio for 2 and not 3. Seems pointless to half-ass it like that.

Oh by all means. Lemme dig it up. The whole interview is great, there's even stuff about MGS2 and how Scott Dolph, the guy who got Jeremy Blaustein fired from MGS, was the guy who was getting fucked in the ass in MGS2.

>Name a single thing Tomm did wrong
The HD Collection.

Book of Memories really is bad. Genre shift doesnt bother me, the game is bad in its genre. That shitty mobile phone port on Vita is a better dungeon crawler even. Cant be fucked to look up the name.

please and thank you

Well he's right about the combat at least.

The actors for 2 signed off their rights for free just so that the original voice track the was maintained.
The actors for 3 had none of that and just sent a middle finger to Konami.

I'm thinking of two interview actually. The one that mentions Guy in particular is...

youtu.be/2DB5GFiTRig

Combat was designed around the fixed camera. Literally nothing wrong with it.
>Hires weeb voice actors and wants to rewrite the script.
Yeah, nah. Kill thyself.

IIRC, the official reason was that they "couldn't" get in touch with one of the actresses. Claudia's, I think.

He consulted the original scriptwriters to make sure any changes were fine.

>It's SUPPOSED to be shit!
Every single god damn time with "classic" survival horror fanboys. You can have a scary and atmospheric game without making the game complete ass to play.

It was Heather's. Claudia shares a voice actress with Angela.

That's fucking Donna Burke, she sang the themes for Peace Walker and Phantom Pain, bullshit that they couldnt get in touch she was working for them.

Claudia was voiced by Donna Burke, who sang the themes for MGS Peace Walker and MGSV, Konami games from 2010 and 2015. There's no way in hell they wouldn't be able to get in touch with her.

thanks again.

hahahaha
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
what the fuck just happened

Reason is simple. SH3 engine couldn't handle audio track swapping. SH2's could. Games also suffered from hard coding. You couldn't have different subtitles for different audio tracks.

Tomm has a good track record with Wayforward. Book of Memories wasn't even that bad, just NOT FUCKING SILENT HILL. It's a fun dungeon crawler. That said...

Contra 4 is a Wayforward game, WITH TOMM HULETT.

Oh yeah, they lost the final version of SH3 and had to use a beta version they had laying around.

Curse of the Moon, Ritual of the Night is hot garbage.

>wut gaem
Google.com

Not even something I can blame Konami for, because name me ONE Japanese publisher who actually held on to all of their games from 2001 that isn't Nintendo.

I'll wait.

He's right. Nobody involved with Silent Hill except maybe Guy sides with the idiot fanboys. The fanatics are convinced the devs are on their side. They're not.

For example, the Metal Gear devs have no issue with Survive. The Silent Hill devs have no issue with survive. Idiot fanboys hate Survive.

It is Konami's fault because you don't need the source code to remaster a game.

>The people being made to work on shitty zombie game say they love shitty zombie game

Oh. For that, definitely. I just mean losing the source code.

If it's so easy, why hasn't the Silent Hill 2/3 Enhanced Edition team done it already?

Personally its for the best that Tomm Hulett works on games like Contra 4, he knows what he's doing in terms of making a fun action game. Not to say he didn't like Silent Hill but he definitely was the wrong person for the job in terms of PR and managing a series like that.

So you think the devs forced to work on sister project Death Stranding also hate working on that game?

I didn't say easy, I said it was possible, and I'm pretty sure the MGS collection, the one with 2, 3 and Peace Walker is an example. It's not the sort of thing some fans are going to produce.

Silent Hill needs a PR person with the stones to tell the fanbase to go fuck themselves because they are the most cancerous amd racist pieces of shit in the gaming community and everyone hates them.

Racist? Do elaborate.

Konami have the source code for Metal Gear Solid 2/3/4/Peace Walker. How do you think MGS3 3DS was made? Also, Bluepoint still messed up MGS3.

Glad you dont work in PR user. You're supposed to get the people to buy products after all.

MGS2 and MGS3 were reverse engineered.

So is this the worst HD remaster/collection? It's somewhat humorous how the MGS HD remasters turned out so much better than this trash fire.

what is this new meme about the silent hill fanbase being bad?

>get woke, go broke, blame racists, repeat
Ah the Hollywood PR approach.

>people shitting on the fanbase and defending tomm
Is this Yea Forums being contrarian or what? Because I don't even

>in retrospect, how bad was it?
in retrospect it gets worse with age.

box art is cool though.

How hard would it be for Konami to just take the PS2 games, blow them up to 4K and then re-release them? Sounds like easy money.
The MGS collection still has some issues, but it's definitely better than most.

DmC had a pr person like that. Now DmC is dead in the water and capcom went back to the original mainline franchise.

The Silent Hill fanbase is obsessed with the idea that Silent Hill is somehow uniquely Japanese even though it is a shameless mishmash of British and American films with almost no trace of Japanese horror. They invariably blame non-Japanese people for things they don't like. They are racists. A lot of weebs are racist, but SH fans are especially racist and the fact they often think Climax and Vatra are "American" demonstrates how stupid and Japan obsessed they are.

>Bluepoint still messed up MGS3.
You guys keep saying this but have yet to explain how, exactly.

I actually hadn’t played 2 from start to finish and played it here first. Didn’t have an issue. Don’t believe everything you read on the internet.

zoeHD was bad too. But Hexadrive fixed it.

Also, Ubisoft's remasters are all bad.

>so unoriginal he pretends to be retarded so people will actually reply to him and give him attention

ouch

ign gave black ops 3 a 9.2 so cant really take them that seriously

Actually the original plan was to make DmC2 but Ninja Theory were busy. DMC5 was a compromise.

stupid gaijin pig go eating burger. pig mother fuck.

Visual effects are broken. Post processing and particles throughout the game are incorrect.

It's uniquely Japanese because it was made by Japanese people and plays like a Japanese game and as soon as it stopped being made by Japanese it no longer felt like Silent Hill. The same is true of Resident Evil, it's a Japanese game through and through no matter how much it is inspired by American films.
It's also a fact that Western developers can't, or rather, usually don't want to make good games. They have their priorities messed up.
Also there is literally nothing wrong with racism.

to be fair the ZOE crowd needs all the content they can get

the silent hill community is toxic and full of homophobic and heterophobic racist bigots and tomm hulett did nothing wrong

Silent Hill is incredible because it’s western horror through a psychologically Japanese lens. The mishmash is exactly what makes it special. Once it was actually being made by Americans it lost the thread.

>without the hassle of simulators
you know there's PC ports right?

A disrespect to the original content

Silent Hill felt like viewing English Literature through a Japanese lens. Not to say Western devs cant make a good SH game but Climax's first SH title apparently was partly inspired by Scrubs and so poorly managed, basically put together in 18 months I believe.

It's why The Evil Within was better than it's sequel.

That's not that unusual. Dead rising 1 was the exact same thing. It was a Japanese take on an american setting and story that accidentally gave it a unique spin due to it being a jap's version of american ideas.

*8

Climax UK got shit mailed to them by the defunct Climax US and they had less than a year to fix it because of deadlines that Konami already delayed.

based mr bean

I totally agree. While I liked the Evil Within 2, it doesn’t even touch the first game. Especially it’s DLC.

I've never actually seen any proof this is true.

get that nigger faggot out of here!

That's even worse, and makes Origins more of a miracle it even exists.

Bluepoint does all of their remasters like that.

You do realise Resident Evil is a clone of a French game, right? The whole survival horror aesthetic with fixed camera angles and tank controls and limited resources is French.

Japanese game fans tend to be bizarrely myopic.

she did good singing on the OSTs but her acting is pretty yeah nah

Which game? Wasn't Alone in the Dark, was it?

>You do realise Resident Evil is a clone of a French game, right?
How many French, or hell, Western developers continued cloning that game? How many Japanese? Clearly the design resonated more with the Japanese.

The only American Silent Hill games were Homecoming and Book of Memories. SH2-4's scripts were written by an American.

>Gaijin localizer WROTE the script for a jap game
baka
>He strongly dislikes Twin Perfect and the insufferable elements of the Silent Hill fanbase.
Those guys are cunts but aint wrong

I thought the core inspiration for RE was making a modern version of an NES game called Sweet Home.

Jeremy Blaustein did write the scripts yes. He was a resident Gaijin for the series.

rare to see someone not shitting on TEW2. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't anything special.

Were the developed by Americans?

After the movie I think they went with just using that/HC's Silent Hill text as the logo

No they don't. If a developer gives them the original source code and high quality assets, they don't use the shit versions off the game disc. People just assume Night Dive do this.

Night Dive don't engine recreate every game, either. Just the ones where using the original code is impossible or impractical.

Yeah, it’s a good game. But like you said, just not special, which the first one was.

l liked it but the dialogue was ASS

It's like NMH2.

The sequel is the better game...but it's also the less interesting game. It's a safe sequel that took away what made the original game special.

Also, TEW2 was both written and directed by Americans, even if the director worked on the first game and even directed the DLC before.

>Also, TEW2 was both written and directed by Americans
Oh that explains why Sebastian now says "what the fuck?" to himself when anything startling happens.

Yep. The game was completely rebooted after the devs got their hands on Alone in the Dark.
Alone in the Dark was a hugely influential horror series. It was also a tech revolution, being the first game with interpolated animation.

Weebs have a weird habit of downplaying PC game series in favor of Japanese console ones.

He did that in the first game too, but that game was written by a Japanese guy.

Honestly, if John Johanas, who directed TEW2, also wrote the game, like he did with the DLC he directed, it'd be fine. But then we got Trent Haga to write it.

mainly comes from whether or not people agree with Twin Perfect's stance on behind the scenes details after TRSHE got backlash

Actually it's because the fanbase is filled with pro-circumcision sheeple

I think it's funny that there is so many Hulett apologists now, dead giveaway of zoom zooms that like "video essays". The only proof you need to know to shit on Tomm is that Book of Memories exists; a shitty DeviantArt OC of a game with a Silent Hill label on top of it.

>Weebs have a weird habit of downplaying PC game series in favor of Japanese console ones.
That's because the only time Westerners were making good games was during the golden age of PC gaming. Once they took over console development with the Xbox360, and started focusing development on consoles with PC ports being scraps, games went to shit. So a weeb isn't going to think highly of Western games unless he stopped playing them around 2005.

No. Play on original hardware, PC versions of SH2 are always inferior.

What makes you think TEW2's director is American?

but 3 is easier to set up.

Konami demanded a dungeon crawler. Take it up with them, dipshit.

The fact that he is an American living in Japan who works for Tango. His name is John Johanas.

Why are you acting like the day the game was supposed to ship, someone was given 3 minutes to put a font on the sign or else the game is irreparably broken? Comic Sans is literally only acceptable for cheesy kiddy comics and your kid's birthday party invitation. At no point should it ever fucking appear in Silent Hill, a horror game. It's unironically the WORST font they could've used, to the point where I wonder if someone was doing it as a ruse.

Does it only go up to 1600 resolution? Any reason for that?

this is pretty much the only reason i'll ever sling shit at the guy

This isn't quite true. The PC version is improving over time. Soon it will have soft shadows and fully correct post-processing. The WIP shadows are better than the PS2 version.

Not all of us have a ps2 or xbox laying around, retardo, thats why shit like the HD collection exists.

That fucking custom volumetric fog they use is outrageously intense. Even my setup with an i7 8700 and rtx 2070 saw dips.

>[Guy Cihi] kind of grossed me out because he had... a Hummer, a big fuckin' like tricked out Hummer, which in Japan looks even more ridiculous, like he's a millionaire...
>He got the job because he said to me that he was unemployed, that he was looking for work, "can I audition?" you know.
Zero mention of him being homeless and the millionaire thing was a casual exaggeration of his status due to him driving a Hummer.

Yeah l bet Konami also took the script from a random faggy Wattpad account and threw it at out poor guy Tomm :(
l'm just astonished at the amount of Hullet shills
nowadays

general knowledge? how is this a question?

oof

You've clearly never worked on a game project that shippes with all its placeholder assets intact.

It shouldn't fucking happen in the first place, fag-o-tron. Now tell me that having Q&A guys will be too much to ask

>the Silent Hill fanbase is so utterly devoid of things to talk about they make up drama between the voice actors

blame kikenami for not doing anything with the franchise outside of pachinko, i guess

Would you rather them keep shitting out cheaply made mainline entries made by eastern Europeans? Personally I'd prefer them be more honest with their greed.

well I mean they should at least be expected to be able to port/maintain older material without it being a total clusterfuck, but look how that went

>Personally I'd prefer them be more honest with their greed.
I reckon they've been pretty transparent of late

Well where did it go? You didnt get rid of the best console with the largest most diverse library did you?

Sometimes you make bad decisions when you're 12 and poor, user.

I grew up with a gamecube and Eternal Darkness doesnt quite cut it

>using HD collection to promote your shitty e-celeb persona and twitch channel

what the fuck are you talking about

>Unga bunga no PS2
Well hopefully you arent poor now and can afford the $50 for the console (Disc Replay and Game X Change going rate).

>Unga bunga resellers 100 dollar games
Just download the isos like everyone else.

>Unga bunga resolution
Then dont play PS2!!

I hate you people.

He's talking about Twin Perfect.
>implying Fungo isn't scorched earth at this point over personal drama

Did he turn out to be a pedophile or what? That's just what I imagine happened to him.

I think it had something to do with possibly abusing his girlfriend. He's an irrelevant D-list e-celeb, beneath notice.

Fuck you zoomer faggot
