‘Silent Hill’ Out… in Europe (Video)

Konami’s Silent Hill has made it to the App Store… at least in European stores, for now [App Store]. U.S. customers will have to wait until it appears in the U.S. store, which we would expect to happen shortly.

Silent Hill – The Escape is a first person action game set in the mysterious surroundings of Silent Hill, the cursed town where your worst nightmares become reality. Ready your gun under the guidance of a dull, flickering flashlight. Encounter fearsome creatures only found in Silent Hill and fight your way through 10 threatening environments

Konami recently announced they would be brining a number of titles to the iPhone including Silent Hill, Dance Dance Revolution, and Metal Gear Solid.

App Store Link (Europe Only): Silent Hill, £3.49

Thanks, ipressbuttons

Update: iPhoneGameNetwork offers this gameplay video, and commentary:

Overall it’s a pretty average game with some good presentation and graphics, but the controls and lack of depth disappoint.

    As a huge tron fan, I would like to recommend NEUTRON which really adds a new twist to the gameplay.

    THEY STOLE MY FUCKING IDEA!

    I had this idea on the 11-04-2008 on ipod touch fans

    Any relation to GLTron? http://www.gltron.org/
    Looks a lot like an enhanced version with new art in some areas.

    It's definitely GlTron with a new skin. Given that GlTron is open source, I hope whoever made this isn't simply capitalizing on the author's work.

    The first time I tried this game out I instantly recognized it as GLTron but tweaked..some of the features (view modes, speed up by using other player's walls as a wind break, etc) are gone, but would seem hard to implement on the touch. But yeah, definitely seems like a trimmed down version of GLTron.. specially since opengl is so easy to port.

    As for the guy above that said "they stole my idea!"... you're an idiot.

    asa side note, i did buy the full version of this game.. if online versus mode ever makes it into it, it'll be a blast. hard mode is still a bit too easy on single player. neutron is a blast too, a bit confusing at first but a very fun game.
