Silent Hill Origins Preview - PSP

Silent Hill Origins promises, not surprisingly, to return to the origins of the Silent Hill story, not necessarily a prequel, but more an exploration of why the small town of Silent Hill became a homing beacon for paranormal goings on. The Silent Hill Origins preview for the PSP game includes video from the game and reveals how Silent Hill Origins has a new control system that adapts to the enemy you face in order to make the gameplay PSP control friendly.

Silent Hill Origins Preview - PSP

What’s the story?
Konami has released new screens and two spooky trailers for its latest Silent Hill horror show – the first to arrive on handheld. Be afraid.
What do we know?
This time the surreal terror revolves around lonesome truck driver Travis Grady who makes an unfortunate stop in Silent Hill and discovers – yes – something is not quite right about the town and its inhabitants. While attempting to escape, Grady must confront his own repressed memories of a scarred and scary childhood. It’s just one searing psychological hammer blow after another, then. Business as usual for this series. The game promises to take us back to the origins of the Silent Hill story – just why has a small rural town become a maelstrom of supernatural insanity? Did it all start when they closed the local Post office? Apparently, the game introduces a few new control mechanisms to suit the PSP setup. A “cineractive’ system provides the player with a different set of controls for specific monster encounters – handily getting around the lack of buttons.
