This sucker-punch opening is actually indicative of the game as a whole. Climax told us that Konami's only real stipulation during development was that Origins matched the same triple-A standards expected of the series. By all accounts, Climax seems to have risen to the challenge, with everything from storyline to stunning graphics right up their with Konami's best, bonkers Japanese efforts
Quote:
That developer Climax seems to have managed to improve on nearly every facet of Konami's long-standing series deserves credit in itself. However, the fact all this has been achieved on a handheld is even more staggering
Quote:
Best of all, despite initial concerns surrounding the validity of a horror title on handheld, Climax has really played up to the PSP's strengths. Slap on a pair of headphones and the more personal play experience on offer really does make this version of Silent Hill one of the most involving, unsettling entries yet

Frankly, given how much of a balls-up this portable Silent Hill could have been, we've come away with nothing but admiration for Climax. On the evidence so far, the team has managed the seemingly impossible with Silent Hill's transition to a handheld. Rather than a scaled-down, half-arsed sub-set of the Silent Hill universe, Origins looks set to be a fully-fledged, console calibre addition to the series.
