Our Thoughts
Silent Hill has been on the ‘silent’ side lately and there is not much of any solid information about a new original game. We have previously talked about Silent Hill’s original creator is working on a new horror game, which is not a sequel to Silent Hill. Dark Deception: Monsters and Mortal is a great party game and it is nice to see such classic action being included to it. But even then, it would be nice to have an original new Silent Hill game in the series to please the fans and the players and to showcase what an actual horror game should feel like.
