As if the list of closed developers wasn’t large enough yet another name could soon be added to the list.  Silent Hill: Downpour developer Vatra is said to be under review by parent company Kuju, which in business talk is simply a nice way of saying the place is as good as dead.  Now the final killing blow from Pyramid Head may not have been given to Vatra just yet, but things aren’t looking good for the Czech based developer and in a way the lack of success around Silent Hill: Downpour has definitely played a part in the studio’s current situation.

Gamers will have one less title to pick up this Fall as Konami have officially delayed the release of Silent Hill: Downpour. The latest entry in the Silent Hill series, which is a quasi-reboot, was set to appear on the PS3 and Xbox 360 this Fall (a November release was likely) but has since been bumped to Q2 2012 which would see it appear in the Spring/Summer period.

Last year at E3 something special happened: Konami had a press conference and it was the epitome of crazy and weird.  Most E3 press conferences tend to be a 50/50 split of pure boredom (sales charts, casual shovelware) and stuff that gets us excited (major game reveals, new hardware being shown) but last year Konami gave us nothing but gems.

The balance in terms of pleasing fans of the Silent Hill video game series has been a difficult one. Some would say that Konami has slightly betrayed the trust of gamers as the recent iterations of the Silent Hill games haven’t exactly been quite up to snuff, which as a whole is slightly attributed to how Konami purposely took the Silent Hill dev duties away from the core Japanese team in an effort to bring a fresh take to the series.

When you ask gamers what they think of the Silent Hill series as it exists now, the response isn’t going to be pretty.  After starting out strong on the PS1, the Silent Hill franchise reached all new levels of epicness with Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill 3 – two games that to this day are still regarded highly from a graphics, story and design standpoint. Then Silent Hill 4 rolled around and proved to be ok, if not disappointing.

Last June Konami announced the next installment of the Silent Hill series, which once again isn’t being handled by Konami Japan but instead the Czech based Vatra games.  The new entry, Silent Hill: Reborn, didn’t have much of a presence at E3, besides one of the developers looking creepy during the infamous Konami press conference, but at least we got a pretty sizeable trailer.  Since then Silent Hill: Reborn essentially fell off the face of the Earth, but ju
