During the TGS 2011 Konami showed some video comparisons between the PS2 and HD collection versions of Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill 3! Now I know the PC versions already look this great but for someone like me who sticks to consoles to play my games this will be one HELL of an improvement over the originals. Even from this low quality video I can see a massive improvement…look how sharp the HD collection is versus the original! I can’t wait to see the difference for myself later this year! Actually I’m really hoping Konami will release a HD quality video of this comparison on their youtube page or even for download on their media site soon just so we can get a better view of the difference.
Now at the end of the preview it does give the HD Collection a 2012 release date but I believe this is just for the release in Japan. I’m still hoping that the collection will be released in North America and Europe before the end of the year as stated by various online game stores.
So what did you guys think? Is this upgrade worth $40?

I think they already look quite good on the PC but it’s mostly mostly targeted at consoles people, so… I wouldn’t say no to an optical upgrade but it’s not like I’m going to die out of excitement or something. Everyone is free to buy it or not according to their criteria anyway. I think I’ll pass for now.
Not to mention it’s probably going to fail with the new voices. I mean even if the acting and visualsare good it won’t be like the original (at least for those who have played it and known it like that for years).
