The horror... The horror...

Wait. This is Silent Hill, right?

Konami announced the Wednesday (September 26) release of a playable demo for Silent Hill: Book of Memories-- a game most long-time Silent Hill fans may not even recognize.

In the E3 demo revealed months ago, the game advertised a bright atmosphere, more gun-slinging and, to top it all off, four-player cooperative play (which warranted more than a handful of dislikes on its YouTube page.)

Will Konami deliver a story worthy of the Silent Hill title?

Needless to say, this isn't the Silent Hill we've grown to love-- but can we? Did we really want another dark, creepy, and foreboding game, just like the first three we know so well? Well, ok, yeah. But maybe Konami has a better, more unfamiliar, adventure this go-around.

The demo will feature single-player gameplay only, with the ability to choose from one of two characters. Also included will be a "Fire Boss" and monsters from the latter portion of the game.

Special thanks to The Sixth Axis for this inside scoop.
