The collaboration between Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro terrified me when I played P.T. for PS4, and although it’s in no way linked to their upcoming Silent Hill project, one can’t help but notice the similarities when watching the new Silent Hills trailer.
Yeah, that’s basically one minute and forty-eight seconds worth of nope. I mean, I know I’m going to play it because I loved P.T., but the physical act of playing the game was extremely terrifying. It wasn’t the same as watching a Let’s Play, as you’ll never understand the terror of a swinging refrigerator, complete with a rumbling child corpse inside. Or the voice on the radio telling you to turn around. Or, you know, the entire teaser itself. But Silent Hills, based purely on what is shown in the trailer above, takes P.T. to the next level.
I can’t wait. I mean, I can wait.. but I don’t want to. But I want to. Ugh. I need this in my life.

Any word on exclusivity ? Dear gaming gods I need this for Xbox One. Hear my prayers lol
The teaser was only available on PS4, but I’m pretty sure it’ll end up not being a PS4 exclusive. There was a press email from Sony that had games marked as console exclusives, like The Order and Bloodborne, but P.T. wasn’t marked. This could mean that the amazing teaser could, in fact, make its way to Xbox One at some point. Time exclusives are nothing new, but here’s hoping that’s not the case and both consoles will see the finished game at the same time.
God I hope so. I am hoping I did not choose the wrong console. No silent hill and ps4 is getting good exclusives.
Yeah, I don’t think they’d want to miss out on the Xbox market.
Will Lisa actually be in it? you know the preggers ghost woman? because im planning on cosplaying her by next halloween *i didnt have enough time to prep for this halloween*
Details are totally sketchy right now, so I have no idea.
You guys are awesome for posting this.
Why thank you! May you have many sleepless nights.
Oh this is a welcome nightmare. I’ve been waiting for Silent Hill to get back to it’s creepy roots.
Your wish is definitely granted. The P.T. teaser on PS4 was terrifying, and this pushes it to the max. I’m excited!
I couldn’t play P.T. with the lights off…
I was wrapped in a blanket like a frigin’ cocoon.
Yeah, that was definitely the scariest thing I’ve ever played in my life. I woke up the next morning still thinking about it.
I know you saw “Lisa” in your bathroom…
My hallway actually looks almost exactly like the one in P.T., so that didn’t help at all.
That would definitely make me uneasy.
Especially considering that it’s dark enough that I can’t see the other end >.>
Oh the memories… of screaming my head off with my bff, as we ran down the stairs to calm or nerves with buckets and buckets of tea after playing Silent Hill.
Silent Hill 1-3 and Fatal Frame 1 & 2 were the scariest games I had ever played before playing the P.T. teaser. So many good memories playing through SH 2 and 3 though!
Ahahahaha! Why, what excellent timing! I was getting bored of having a peaceful nights sleep and my sanity, anyway!
If this is anything close to the kack-yourself-silly scariness of the P.T teaser, then my body is ready…to watch my big brother play it :3
Haha, this definitely seems to take the creepiness of PT and push it to the max.
Ooooooh Gosh! I can’t wait now! Most ‘scary’ games seem to rely on jump scares, but P.T cleverly used the building suspense of knowing that something might happen at any point – and sometimes it was just the smallest thing, the tinest change in the hall, that made you shiver!
Gee hee hee…!
Yeah, every trip through the hallway built more and more tension because you never knew what was going to be different. Peaking up to the rafters and seeing Lisa peering over the railing about gave me a heart attack!
Wait pt wasn’t even based on the gome and I was still scared shitless about it
Welcome to the Thunderdome.

Well, I didn’t want to sleep anyways.
