Images of Silent Hill

Developer The Collective has some things to be ashamed of : after an unconvincing showing of their Silent Hill: Homecoming with some images that were not really inspiring, the company is back at it with some small shots. Yes, it looks good, but at this resolution, almost every production does. Who are they kidding?
Update: added 6 HD images from the PS3 build
The game, even in high definition, does not seem that good. However, after reading some written impressions from various game journalists, I still have hope this will turn out good.

Don't you think character models in SH 2, 3 and 4 were some of the most realistic for the ps2 generation?
I really liked the psychological aspect of James and Maria in SH2. This was again used in SH4 between Henry and Eileen.
Is she a good person? bad person? what is her real motif? brilliant stuff! I hope in SH5 they bring a female character as well, to mess with your psyche
and making them sexy only adds to the creepiness of the series

There is a female person. The gametrailers vids show her. And I think there will be even more ^^
I'm still a little bit sceptic about this game. looks still too stiff to me. And the main character... I don't know, I still don't like 'em ^^

*Limited inventory. It just felt stupid. And the breakable weapons and so forth. No i did not like that.
*Ghosts. They are supposed to make you shit your pants i suppose and sure, they totally stressed me out. But all in all they were just annoying and deducted form the overall experience. Why couldn't you kill them!? Also, carrying those goddamn swords around. Fucking stupid.
*Backtracking. God i hate games where 50% is recycled levels *cough*DMC4*cough*. Seriosuly, going through all the levels AGAIN was just a royal pain. Part of SH is exploring but how much fun is it exploring the same goddamn rooms twice?
*HUD and no flashlight. How much didn't the freaking hp bar kill the mood? And the game is way too light. Part of the scaryness in SH comes from the claustrophobic darkness that is always closing in around you, and your only breather in between is the fogy daylight areas that are just long enough that you can catch your breath.
The story and setup for SH the room was great and the graphics are just awesome, not to mention the music and sound effects. So to me the game could have been super sweet, but the totally botched it.
The room is totally worth playing through once though. It took me like 3 years to do it but at the end i enjoyed the story :P
