HD Collection PS3 Exclusive (Hah! 360 too) /New VAs

[Summoner]

I'd rather just buy them, tbh. The PC versions, not the HD collection. New voices make me cry. And the lack of the original...bah.

..rrrather just do the friendship piracy

Fair enough. But I have warned you about piracy at least once before so this really shouldn't come as a shock.

See you in two weeks.

Or you can laugh more if you buy the HD collection when it's dead cheap, used. That's what I'll do, while I wait I'll play it on my PC at the highest settings too

Yeah, can't blame Konami for a website botching there report. For most things, like world hunger, sure, but not for this.

someone needs to get their fucking story straight!

WHAT IS IT KONAMI? IS IT 2 OR 3 GAMES? DO WE GET THE GOOD VOICE ACTING OR DO WE GET TO BURN YOUR BUILDING DOWN? WITH LEMONS? DO I GET TO TURN MY CAPS OFF IF YOU APOLOGIZE?

I think whoever wrote that post got it wrong. They haven't got any screenshots up for the first game, so I'm guessing it's just a typo.

So the latest Kojima Productions report acknowledges the aspect ratio controversy with the cutscenes in the game. They offer open comments and a reply selection to let the fans tell them what they want whether they support the "super widescreen" format or the intended 16:9 ratio. The sheer fact that fan input is being welcomed for a game they said is not too late to change has made me very happy to look forward to that set regardless which format they end up with. As said earlier I agree with the guy who wanted MGS1 in that set, but Peace Walker will do.

Silent Hill HD on the other hand is really hard to like. I do not approve with the new voice performances, but that makes up one slice of the silent Hill pie (albeit an important one). I'd be happier if I knew these games were part of a complete set but we don't even get remastered version or Silent Hill 1 or Silent Hill 4. I refuse to pay anything above $40 in that regard.

^ And thats all he originally said. The issue is that there isn't a collective deal covering them properly and as far as he's concerned reissues of games should pay the staff and voice actors involved a royality payment. It didn't happen, so he made comment about it.

It happens in music and movies and tv shows, so why should videogames be considered any different? Especially these days when the things try to blend in more and more as interactive movies/shows. I understand that Konami doesn't owe anyone anything, but it brings to light the fact that this practise is going to happen more and more as these HD ports will continue.

[DarkMemories]

To be frank, as much as I'm an anti-corporation kind of guy, I'm inclined to support Konami on this one. No deal=no residuals, Guy. Simple as that.

[Wrathborne]

personally they need an attack from mr sodomy donkey...

Did someone say Donkey?

Here's some more quotes from Guy.

(On the subject of Troy Baker)

"LOL, but I think Troy's probably an okay guy. I'm going to cut him slack because it's more than likely that he's just repeating junk info he got from somebody at Konami - somebody who doesn't know the facts either and certainly has never talked to me about it."

"I agree with some of what Troy says. Let's all try to remember, he's in a tough position."

(On the subject of asking for more than the residuals)

"I never demanded more money from Konami. That's speculation."

(On the subject of having to recast all the actors)

"It's a real shame. There is no reason the HD release doesn't have the original cast other than Konami's desire to stir up controversy to spur sales."

It's Ferdinand, the Mechanical Raping Bull. He is mighty.
