guillermo del toro and kojima were teaming up to make silent hills, which stars norman reedus. the super hyped p.t. free "demo" on ps4 was actually a teaser for silent hills, which showed a lot of promise imo. kojima is a great director and producer and i would have trusted him to make a good silent hill. guillermo has been wanting to make a horror game or ages, so it would have been a match made in heaven.
the reason why "silent hills is dead" is because it's a konami ip. allegedly, kojima is leaving konami, and konami has gone so far as to remove kojima's name and other bullshit. just google kojima + konami and i'm sure the news will crop up and be better explained. anyway. because silent hill (the franchise) is a konami ip, it's unlikely that kojima will still be working on it. guillermo might stay on board, but because he and kojima are close friends (and wanted to do this together), who knows. nobody knows what the fate of silent hills will be just yet, so a lot of this is conjecture. all we know is that konami wants to continue the mgs franchise without kojima, so the same might be said for silent hills.
