Message: [QUOTE="WokiBakoki, post: 191302, member: 205793"] Not quite as tragic, more of a what if. Team Silent. The people behind Silent Hill games 1-4. From what I've heard, Konami wanted there own Resident Evil, and while Silent Hill was certainly impressive (captivating enough for the least patient person ever in me, to finish it). It couldn't touch the RE sales. So they weren't given a generous budget for sequels. While the game quality varied, the devs had less to work with each new game. Sales were totally dead in Japan after 2. I'm told Team Silent wasn't so much the same group each time, but people came and went with each game. Basically, depressing behind the scenes. While I'm not a huge fan of the games, I'm captivated by the concept and a lot of the set pieces. So I can't help but wonder what if Konami didn't cheap out like it usually does and gave Team Silent everything they needed to really put the fight to Resident Evil. Especially when RE started to fall off with 5 and 6. Prime time for Silent Hill to make a comeback, but it just got worse all the same during the 2000s. 360 era sucked for horror man. The whole P.T situation is another can of worms entirely. That demo exploded like nothing before it and Konami did nothing with that. Bonus: Raven Software made some of the best shooters when they were cooking back in the day. Massive resume of bangers. While they never got shut down, they suffered an arguably worse fate of being bought by Activision and turned into a Call of Duty machine. Tragic. [/QUOTE]
