When Allison Road was revealed last month, its unveiling came only a scant few weeks after Konami’s scorched earth campaign against Silent Hills and its terrifying P.T. demo. Its similarly photorealistic visuals and the timing of its debut made it that much easier to draw comparisons between it and what might have been our last chance at seeing Silent Hill regain some of the relevance it’s lost since The Room released in 2005.
I thought Allison Road looked like the unofficial spiritual successor to P.T. because that’s what we wanted it to be, but this pre-alpha footage has made it official. This isn’t what we would’ve gotten from Kojima and del Toro, and that makes it exciting. This game cannot come soon enough.
