In March of this year Konami released the Silent Hill HD Collection for PS3 and 360. Nearly immediately, many players on PS3 (and a few on 360) began complaining about various problems with the game. On PS3, there were issues with slowdown, audio syncing, and a lot more. The 360 fared better but still had some issues here and there. Around then, a tiny patch was released for PS3 but it didn't do too much for most.

Then in April Konami let everyone know that patches were being worked on for the HD Collection as well as Silent Hill: Downpour. Fans were sated temporarily and decided to wait, wait, and wait some more. Finally in July the HD Collection patch was ready for PS3 owners! Those who had the game on 360 assumed their patch would be coming soon. Unfortunately today Konami has stated this isn't the case anymore. The plans to do so have been "cancelled due to technical issues and resources." At least you don't have to wait anymore for a phantom patch.

What if you're one of the 360 owners? Konami simply apologizes:

"Understanding the issues some users are experiencing, KONAMI issued a title update for Silent Hill HD Collection (PS3), which fixed frame rate issues as well as audio-synching and other reported issues. KONAMI apologizes to any players who are continuing to experience these issues on the XBOX 360 sku."


Are you frustrated with the lack of a patch for 360?

Oh Konami, just when we think you couldn't do a worse job handling the Silent Hill franchise, you pull out this gem.

It must not have sold as much on 360, so that system got the shaft like the one Bethesda gave the PS3.

Considering how much grief Sony used to get only 4 years ago, I never thought I'd see the day when PS3 was the superior console for many multiplatform titles.
