The Internet Reacts To The New Silent Hill

By Alex Chen | January 01, 0001

Nobody was expecting a new Silent Hill game—much less one that stars Walking Dead actor Norman Reedus, and is being made by Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro.But that’s exactly what a little demo released on the PS4 store yesterday surprisingly teased for some players who beat it: a new horror game called Silent Hills. The demo is called “P.T.,” as we all now know, and it stands for “Playable Teaser”—as in, playable teaser for Silent Hills. The reaction to this news on social media has been pretty fantastic. It seems safe to say that many people are hyped on the project. There’s definitely some concern over how certain things will be handled in the game too, but nobody can deny that the interactive manner in which Silent Hills was revealed was novel and so very Kojima-like. After all, right up until the end of the demo, nobody actually knew what P.T. actually was:cnx.cmd.push(function(){cnx({"playerId":"e3616d04-4972-4839-a63a-c6975e2e9731","settings":{"advertising":{"macros":{"AD_UNIT":"/23178111854/od.kotaku.com/article","CHILD_UNIT":"article","POST_ID":"1621056525","POST_TYPE":"post","CHANNEL":"culture","SECTION":"","SUBSECTION":"","CATEGORIES":"culture","TAGS":"","NOP":"0"},"timeBeforeFirstAd":0}}}).render("cnx-player-main")}); Here’s some more of what people have to say about Silent Hills: TL;DR Kojima is a beautiful troll.And amazing. — Tsun (@Soulflarz) August 13, 2014 I bet Kojima is stoked to not be working on a Metal Gear game in the first time in forever — Will Richardson (@KGrooveEnjoyer) August 13, 2014 https://twitter.com/embed/status/499327318246965249 >Demos cardboard boxes>Stealth reveals SH Kojima stays winning for all time. — Ron “Ronald” Taylor, Esq.
