"Yesterday it was reported that Konami's Silent Hill HD Collection on PS3 will feature new voice performances, with the original voice work being re-done to compliment the HD release. This news has met with mixed reactions from fans, mainly due to the fact that changing the voices of characters like James, Maria and Heather will almost certainly alter the unique experience and atmosphere created by both Silent Hill 2 and 3.
TGL got in touch with Guy Cihi, the voice of Silent Hill 2 protagonist James Sunderland and asked him if he would be returning to voice James in the HD Collection and if he knew anything about being re-cast. He has some blunt words for Konami....
A breakdown of the best Silent Hill Characters that inspired and frightened gamers.
The 2024 Game Anniversaries include some major titles including Half-Life 2, Uncharted 2, and Minecraft.
2023 had scares galore, and even more terrifying horror games are coming in 2024 that players should be looking forward to.
I've played this game so many times, I can't imagine any of the characters sounding different. Especially Maria. I thought her voice actress was amazing, tbh. The sudden changes in her mood and tone were very convincing and...well...creepy.
I hope there is at least an option to switch back to the original VAs.

The voice acting didn't exactly blow me away in SH2, except for some bits by Mary / Maria. I don't blame Konami for getting different actors, but this guy's right, they do deserve some compensation.
They're changing Heather's voice too?
FUCK YOU KONAMI, FUCK YOU.
this is just like DmC to be honest.
