PT - Silent Hills being removed from PSN on 4/29!

[Ack]

I still don't understand how it was a candidate to be cancelled when they'd come this far with it. del Toro backing out I can understand. He's got a ton of clout and can do any given project at any time, and it never seemed like that part of it was set in stone to me. Other than that I don't get how you can sign on Norman Reedus, get him in a mo cap situation, and produce a half hour of the game only to cancel it. Does anyone know exactly what the problem was?

I guess it happens all the time (Duke Nukem anyone?) but they were very proactive in showing this off and getting people excited even though it was a year or two away. I don't get it.

So is it down from the servers (ie those who have it on their accounts can not re-download it) or are people just not able to "purchase" it anymore?

Both, can't re-download or purchase it. When it's not being hosted anymore it's gone for good unless you have it installed before removal.

bummer. i don't have a PS4 yet.

Not true. If you "purchased" it, but deleted it from your console, you can still re-download it via your library. At least, for now...

Cheers, just tried re downloading it and it worked a treat.

Oh ok thanks for the clarity!
I'd be scared to even delete it and try. Lol
I do know though that removed means removed for good as I lost a few games that were taken down. Just be cautious it might not last hosting cost money so not sure for how long.

I'll post it here, since I really dont know any other silent hills thread.

But the rumor mill is saying that microsoft might just buy the Silent Hills game from konami!

Dont know what the fan reaction would be to some thing like this.

Will it go the route of Tomb raider exclusivity?

Read on and take a guess whether is true or bs?

Go figure. I already had an Xbox One, but I traded a guy some stuff for a PS4 so I could play Bloodborne and Silent Hills. The PS4 showed up in the mail 3 days after PT was pulled and now it's possibly an X1 exclusive. I couldn't have planned that better.

Ah well. I actually hope that this is true because that would mean Silent Hills is no longer in limbo.

[Opa Opa]

Hope it is true! I didn't want to buy a PS4 for one game.

The "news" came from Rooster Teeth. It's also been directly denied by Phil Spencer.

It's downloadable again through the use of a proxy. I think you have to have had it in your library but it works, verified on my PS4 mere moments ago.
