If those are the ‘all new’ graphics in the picture above then they appear to be slightly worse than the ‘all old’ graphics that they had before. /o\

you know what screen shots are like they never really capture the game properly. I’ve seen clips of the game running and it does look very nice.
I hope they have managed to put back the creepy vibe they had with silent hill 2 but kept the fighting system from Silent hill 4
