I know. What kind of game has trailer that gives you nightmares and then is a game you can play in the dark with a physco killer next to you and not be scared. tongue.gif
Janiel
a crappy one im guessing........
BurnSide
Yeah i was dead scared when i watched the trailer?

What's the difference with the game and trailers?

The SOUNDS. It was the sounds that freaked me out, but those sounds were not in the game.
Janiel
why would they take the sounds out of the game?!?
ChrisC098
I know. I would lay in my bed at night and here those noices and be scared crapless. Stupid Konami. sad.gif
BurnSide
They didn't take the sounds out. The ADDED sounds into the trailer.

Like, moaning and screaming and heavy breathing etc.
Janiel
basically false advertising?
BurnSide
Almost.
ChrisC098
I think it would have been alot creepier if they had random breathing out of nowhere.
BurnSide
And the moaning sounds and stuff.
ChrisC098
BS maybe if you get your book published they will ask you about the games.
BurnSide
Dude, if they had ME working on a game, well, you can damn well believe it'll be scary.



Check this out:





The game starts and you are in a forest. You can go anywhere in this forest. It is pitch black and you only have a small flashlight to guide you. You hear things in the forest around you, breathing, moaning, rustling, but you don't see anything.

You start following a path of bloody deformed trees and come across an ancient wooden shack.. things keep darting in and out of the light of your flashlight but you can't quite see what they are...
ChrisC098
crying.gif crying.gif Thank you for scareing me BS. crying.gif crying.gif
BurnSide
Good huh. THAT is what the forest area in SH4 should have been like.
ChrisC098
If you ever work on one. Never have monkeys or burping nurses. *Nods*
BurnSide
Agreed.
*shakes head*
Or crappy wheelchairs.
ChrisC098
Yeah. Or big heads with crossed eyes.

and you must have many different layers of the story.
BurnSide
And the number one rule.

It must not make sense!
ChrisC098
Oh it will make sence. After you play through it seven times. Then read a plot analysis. Then talk about it on this forum for a month. tongue.gif
jpalz
Maybe. But I found that the story for SH4 had many layers on it. I mean, thinking about it I still find some new stuff in it. Just my two cents on it.... *goes back to writing SH2 story*
ChrisC098
*Cracks whip on jpalz* Faster!

sounds evil dead-esque. cool.
BurnSide
Yeah i guess it does sort off. It's the shack. All great horrors start off with the shack.
chico del nacho
seriously, you can't have a game or movie in the woods without a shack.

the bit about that that made me think of evil dead was the sounds and the atmosphere, really. oh and the trees, those creepy trees... scared.gif
jpalz
Just a quick question (don't know if it has been done before): Like they're apparently doing a movie based on SH2, who should be in the movie? I think Dakota Fanning would be good as Laura.
BurnSide
The raping tree, Chico? laugh.gif



jpalz, where did you hear the movie was based on SH2? I think that's the worst mistake they could make personally.
jpalz
There was an update in IGN that I posted here some many pages ago. And if they do it right, it will be a great movie thumbsup.gif
BurnSide
I don't have much faith that they can do it right.

And the game itself is pretty much a movie, why remake it? That's pointless. We'd be watching the same thing with worse acting and effects.
ChrisC098
Laura? Whos that?
Janiel
all this talk of game based movies is making me sad.....reminding me of the abomination BloodRayne movie............
BurnSide
Laura is a little girl in SH2 KC.

Jan, you never know it may still be okay..
Janiel
i dunno, reading all the info i previously found..........
ChrisC098
Oh yeah I totally forgot about her.
BurnSide

In all honesty, Resident Evil 2 was crap for me too poop on concerning how well they did the characters and exerts from the games.

But it was still entertaining and good. You just gotta look at the games outside the movies.
Janiel
good point thumbsup.gif i'll keep a slightly more postive look on it tongue.gif
ChrisC098
I dont want a silent hill movie. I dont want the company to go bancrupt like Square did after the Final fantasy movie.
chico del nacho
ya know what would've made the second oen better? me. just throw me in there. i'd be a survivor too, because of my horror movie expertise and my stubbornness.

or they coulda hired me to do voice work...lousy so-and-sos... disgust.gif
ChrisC098
Id do voice over work for free.
BurnSide
They wont go bankrupt. Konami isn't financing the movie. Like Capcom, they paid paid any profits from the movie (royalites) but it doesn't affect them financially.
ChrisC098
Good. I never want them to stop makeing these.
Shakezulah
Silent Hill has to end some time. even tho its a sad thought, its gonna get old after awhile because theyre just gonna keep making new stories and people are gonna get confused and not wanna play them anymore. i think we are some of a few people that doesnt want this to happen, but we all know its going to sooner or later.
BurnSide
SH4 is a good example of this.

Put it this way:

The reason why there was a Red Wheelchair in both SH1 and SH3 was because Alessa sat in a red wheelchair as a burned corpse for a long time. It was in her nightmares.

Now, WHY was there a red wheelchair or several in SH4? It doesn't make any sense, it has nothing to do with Alessa!
This is the kind of continuity error that konami will continue to make after awhile.

Just like RE, the SH games are gonna die away very soon.
Shakezulah
RE can never die. because they dont make completly new storylines a lot of the time, people will be more interested in finding out what happens. i think that there are more Re fans than there are of SH fans. RE will probably be around for awhile longer than SH will
BurnSide
Technically, Resident Evil is already dead. The storyline is extinguished, Umbrella wiped out, Raccoon city a fading memory.

RE4 is 6 years later and while it has a familiar character, it's an entirely new place, new story, new type of game even. If they called it something other than Resident Evil you could barely be able to tell it was RE.

That been said, i wonder what will come after Re4, if anything?
Janiel
so why are they trying to make more SH and RE games?

money?
ChrisC098
No I wont accept it sad.gif
Shakezulah
im sure there will be one awesome great kick ass RE finaly game that will tie up everything in a few years. now that i will be looking forward to, and not be looking forward to it at the same time. but RE is Capcoms biggest thing and itll still be around for a long time, theyre just gonna slow down on the game making so they can continue to come up with new story plots and make the games great.
Janiel
couldnt it just go on as long as Umbrella still exists?
BurnSide
That's just it, Umbrella doesn't exist anymore. laugh.gif
Shakezulah
yeah it could, but RE4 has nothing to do with Umbrella so its something entirely new
