PT (Playable Teaser) for Silent Hills on the PS4 was a masterpiece in horror gaming. And what did Konami do? They pulled the plug, not just on the game but on the whole Silent Hills project. PT gave us a glimpse of what could've been an evolutionary leap for the horror genre. Even if you didn't play it, you felt its absence. Now, it's a legend, a ghost haunting the halls of what-could-have-been.

It's practically a collector's item now. Got my PS4 with PT installed and no way that's ever leaving my side. It's nuts that a demo has become this mythic, but it speaks volume about what PT brought to the table, even in its unfinished state. Anybody else here keep their PT copy like a sacred artifact?

PT's approach to survival horror was groundbreaking. It wasn't just the graphics or the sound design; it was the psychological aspect, the subtlety. Every playthrough you'd notice something new, something more sinister lurking behind the mundane. I mean, the way it implied a story without outright saying much? Genius. It elevated the entire horror genre into an art form. By cancelling the project, they didn't just kill a game, but a cultural phenomenon in the making. Every horror game that comes out now, I can't help but compare it to the vision PT had promised. What a shame.

I totally get where you're coming from. I remember feeling chills running down my spine, the game had a way of getting inside your head like none other. The fact that the full game will never see the light of day... honestly, it's a loss to the entire gaming community.

Man, I feel you. PT was absolute brilliance in game design. It's just frustrating knowing we got a taste of something so unique, and then poof—gone. Watching those looping corridors change was truly an experience. Can’t help but wonder what other psychological tricks Kojima had up his sleeve. 😢
