Rumor: PSP Silent Hill being ported to PS2
So get this: Konami made a (by most accounts) pretty good game called Silent Hill Origins for the PSP, and according to a Kotaku tipster, the company will be moving the game to the PS2 in March 2008! Making a port of a decent game from a well-regarded franchise for a system with 120 million units sold worldwide, can you believe it? ... Yes, so can we.
As we said, this hasn't been confirmed by Konami, but it seems like one of two things would be happening right now. Either they are porting SHO to the PS2, or they've seen this story on the internet, fired the guy in charge of thinking of things like this and are in the preliminary stages of porting SHO to the PS2. Either way, we'd bet that you'll hear more about it soon.

That, and, this is good news for fans of the series. As good a game as it is for the PSP, I simply cannot get into it like other Silent Hill games (4 excluded). Silent Hill is all about atmosphere, and it just isn't as immersive on a portable. Silent Hill is best left to the consoles where you can kill the lights, kick up the surround sound and be scared shitless for a few hours.

Shaggi, dude, it's like you're not even trying anymore. I know you've only got the brain capacity for one single joke that you keep repeating like the retard that you are, but man, at least put some effort into its delivery. You can do better!
I mean, the game was good for the PSP... but since it's being ported to a console, they could flesh out the story(no pun intended)a bit more. Maybe offer varied modes to play or even a gallery/dossier on well-known places, creatures & characters of SILENT HILL 0RIGINS.

Plus, it expands the user-base of the game. There are a lot of PS2s out there in comparison to the PSP, and with a Silent Hill game, you'd rather want to sit down in a dark room, volume up on a nice big screen. Maybe a home cinema unit, some popcorn and some easily scared friends to jump at scary things for more fun.
You know I have never seen a succesful PSP port ever,maybe the original GTA:LCS but other than that I have never seen a PSP-Ps2 port in the top of the sales chart ever.
Konami is currently porting yu-gi-oh Tag force 1 into the Ps2 so that could mean that SH:O is also going to be ported and I don't know why but that gives me the idea that MGS4 is going to be ported to the XBOX360.
