Silent Hill 4 revealed

[blee337]

Almost a lost art in today's internet world, I was pleasantly suprised to see that OPM landed a true exclusive. In the latest issue they unviel Silent Hill 4 with a handful of screenshots and brief plot discription. After 2 days no other big name game web sites have followed up yet, so I thought I would bring it up. The game starts off in a neighbor town to SH and involves the protagonist being trapped in his room. After 5 days a "hole" appears in his bathroom. Through the hole lies monsters, ghosts, and other things. What would you do?
The magic box has some page scans from the magazine. The link is below.

Creepy concept. I'd probably just sit in my room. The protagonists of the SH series are too daring, jumping head first into hell, without so much as a breakdown of tears or a glimpse of fear.

So it DOESN'T take place in Silent Hill, but it takes place VERY close to Silent Hill...huh...

"Henry Townshend finds himself trapped in his apartment that has been cursed by a deeply rooted evil. Only by exploring mysterious portals leading to disturbing alternate worlds will Henry begin to uncover the truth. However, in true Silent Hill fashion, mysterious new characters, horrendous creatures, and the undead will use any means necessary to impede his progress. Silent Hill 4: The Room features a terrifying experience that fans and newcomers will never forget. "


I don't care too much for this statement. "Horrific new monsters, including spirits that can attack through walls "


Great. Thats all I need....freakin monsters following me through walls.
