Why It Makes Sense for Konami to Make a Silent Hill 2 Remake Instead of SH1

The original Silent Hill may be deserving of its own remake, but Silent Hill 2 was likely decided upon by Konami instead for its popular iconography.

2 was the most successful game in the series so it makes complete sense to remake it. Been a long time since I played 1-3 but story arc wise wasn't 2 a self contained story? Isn't 3 is a continuation of 1's protagonist? If so, this also has a lot to do with it. This isn't exactly a new series so honestly who cares if Empire Strikes Back gets made first? Heard rumors that if this sells extremely well, then a 1 & 3 remake would be the next project from Bloober. Makes fiscal sense.

Yes, 3 is a sequel to 1 once Heather is in her teens. There's references to 2 in part 4 though. Newspaper clippings that talk about Harry Mason.

I think what they should do, and this is going to take a lot of effort which I know Konami won't like :P

Combine 1 and 3 into one single story and remake, have the game start with Harry until a point then jump years so you finish off the game with heather perhaps.

Good for us, bad for them. They’d much rather keep em separate and make twice the money on us for the same amount of content

It’s basically

“SH2 has Pyramid Head, he’s marketable”

Well, he is the most iconic enemy aside from the nurses.

Without googling it can you tell me the standout bosses from 1, 3, and 4?

Yui_Suzumiya576d ago

I'd think because Silent Hill 2 is better, lol

Ironically number 9 can save them at this point (releasing games on multiple platforms)

You could add the naming scheme for the consoles, it just confuses customers. I know they wanted to avoid traditional numbering bc it would always be lower than their competitor, but this whole 360 then One then Series thing is confusing af. Imagine a Soccer Mom trying to figure this stuff out. I still mistakenly call the Series X the One from time to time on accident.

Don't forget about the Xbox One, Xbox One X and Xbox Series X! Good luck to Soccer moms around the world.

Phil Spencer is the worst that has happened to Xbox.
They built a respectable brand up to Xbox one. Then this guy took over and things became a joke

He still has his job. Something you can't say about Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga2h ago

Both bad execs. One is on job and one thankfully retired.

Really good video.

I remember the days with RRoD was big news on here, N4G.

Microsoft had it turbulence number of years.

Looking at the success of Sea of Thieves despite being 6 years old, time to release Halo, Forza horizon 4 & 5 on PS5. It'll help their revenue

shinoff21833h ago(Edited 3h ago)

2 of the 4 games they did already sold really well. So it's definitely going down. Idk about halo or forza but I feel those studios they've bought in the last 5 years, their coming
