Tons of Silent Hill 4 Info
Thanks to forums member Endaso for pointing out an excellent Eurogamer article on Silent Hill 4. The article contains minor spoilers, but they are all clearly marked and easy to avoid. Silent Hill 4 is scheduled for release in June 2004 in Japan.
Hayarigami
Thanks to Insert Credit for the link to Hayarigami, a new text-based horror adventure title from Nippon Ichi Software (Disgaea/La Pucelle/Phantom Brave). The site doesn’t have a lot of content, but it does have a few tiny screens. What do you think? Should this sort of game be included in the Quest? I’ve already included a few other text-only games, such as Kamaitachi No Yoru 2, but I am not sure if they really belong here. What are your thoughts?
Update: 1up.com has posted a bunch more information on the game.

Second Shot Information
|
|
Free Radical has released a press release and screenshots for their upcoming action game Second Sight. Originally described as a “Resident Evil-inspired” horror game, the screens and the press release seem to suggest that the game will be more action-oriented than horror. I’ve gone ahead and mirrored the screens until we have more information. If the game is not actually horror, I’ll remove it from the list. Via Penny Arcade. |
Ghost Hunter Coming Stateside
1Up.com is reporting that Ghost Hunter is on its way to the United States. No release date is specified in the 1Up article, but GameFaqs.com shows the game shipping in the States in “September 2004.”
