I thought this was very interesting! Who would have thought they would have done special motion capturing for the e3 trailer. I think the technology they were using was pretty cool. What do you guys think?
I noticed a lot of cool things watching the HD version I didn’t before 🙂
The neat!
1) The monsters are pretty creepy. It looks like Murphy DIDN’T shoot the other inmate. From what I can see it looks like the female monster mauled and bit him. He was way too bloody from a single gunshot.
2) When the little girl jumps into frame there’s also a little boy in the doorway. The man she pushes is wearing jeans and a green button down shirt and not a prison coverall so it could be a flashback. Maybe the boy and girl are related to Murphy in some way. His kids…his siblings…random ghosts from that apartment? Their clothing did look dated next to the man in jeans.
3) The man on the TV seems to be black
4) Murphy is in a prison cell when the world shifts to the other world. I really like how the other world becomes like a vortex/blackhole and sucks all the stuff away.
5) Overall the world had a lot more color. Everything looked pretty gray and washed out before but I can a much more detailed Silent Hill now. If anything it really reminds me of the Blue Creek Apartments area of Silent Hill 2. The brief glimpses of fog look really good in my opinion. This could be the most “realistic” version of the town yet. Nice rain effects as well!
6) Great voice acting from the little we hear. I also like the music!
Not So great
1) Murphy looks pretty blah and plasticy…especially his hair. I’m really hoping he gets more detail on his character model.
2) Some animation does look stiff but I’m sure it will improve!
Overall I’m pretty DAMN excited 🙂 What about you guys?
My screencaps!
Edit: Vixx from Silent Hill Heaven says Tomm Hulett has confirmed with her that this is the movie that runs if you sit on the main menu screen too long.
Well this is a little disappointing, I was hoping for a cool new trailer but it’s just the trailer shown at Gamescom ’09 with Japanese subtitles. If you would like to check it out for yourself it’s been posted on the Japanese Silent Hill Shattered Memories website and on my youtube page:
