Stanley goes to Silent Hill in The Stanley P.T.
P.T., the interactive teaser for Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro's upcoming Silent Hills, has drawn a lot of comparisons to The Stanley Parable since its release on PS4 nearly two weeks ago. After all, they both prominently feature opening doors, walking down hallways and ... well okay, that might be pretty much it. Nonetheless, enterprising YouTuber "Its a mirage" has seen fit to combine the two, and the results are uncanny. The narrator from The Stanley Parable fits surprisingly well in the spooky world of P.T., and we can't help but feel that if we'd had his comforting voice, maybe we wouldn't have stumbled around for two hours trying to make that darn baby giggle. Don't take our word for it though, check out the video after the break.
Kojima promises Silent Hills will make players ruin their pants
Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima confirmed that the interactive horror game unvealed during Sony's Gamescom 2014 press conference is indeed Silent Hills, a new, pluralized game in Konami's Silent Hill series. Kojima is working with Hellboy director Guillermo Del Toro on a game that will make players "shit their pants," as Kojima said through a translator during Konami's livestreamed Gamescom event today, joking that a limited edition version of of Silent Hills will include an extra pair of slacks (you know, for all the pants-shitting you'll be doing). The interactive teaser, now available on PSN, was briefly discussed during Sony's event yesterday under the name P.T. As it turns out, that only stood for "Playable Teaser," as there's "no deep meaning into it." Kojima clarified, "you see all these trailers and teasers, but it is a game so I wanted to have something that was really interactive that you could play through and after playing it, clearing something, you will finally get to the IP or title or whatever it was."
Joystiq Streams: Blindly walking into the madness of Silent Hills [UPDATE: Relive the stream!]
Have you ever had that nightmare where the guy that made Zone of the Enders, the guy that made Hellboy, and that guy who played the younger brother in Boondock Saints end up in a fog-covered town that physically manifests your every trauma and insecurity? Plagued me for years, that one. Never got a wink of sleep. Let's just turn on the old PlayStation 4 here for some relaxing good timesAGGGGGHHHHHHH! The mysterious P.T. shown during Sony's Gamescom '14 press conference, available right now on PlayStation 4, does indeed appear to be a teaser for Silent Hills, a new game in Konami's horror series. It also appears to be the brain child of Hideo Kojima and filmmaker Guillermo del Toro, and stars none other than Norman Reedus, one of the stars of The Walking Dead. It also frightens some Joystiq staff so much they refuse to play it. Not Richard Mitchell, though! He'll be marching into P.T. blind starting at 4PM EST on Joystiq.com/Twitch, unafraid of the madness that waits within. What's waiting in there? Do Solid Snake and Daryl team up to fight kaiju? Probably not. That'll probably just stay a dream. Joystiq Streams broadcasts live every Tuesday and Thursday at 4PM EST on Joystiq.com/Twitch, but stray streams like this one happen all the time so make sure to follow us on Twitch to know when we're live.
