Anyone here love the Forbidden Siren series? I'm dying for

>>386345543
Probably won't ever happen. Toyama says that horror games in the vein of what Japanese studios were making in the '90s through to the mid '00s are too expensive to make for most studios now.

Never played em. Shill them to me.

Yeah I really loved them OP.

Fantastic games and underrated as fuck.

>>386345705
One of the most difficult and frustrating horror franchises I have ever experienced but the story and atmosphere is fantastic.
Forbidden Siren 2 is the best one and you can play that without having to play the first game which is quite difficult.

Made by ex-Silent Hill personnel who left Konami for Sony Japan Studio in the early '00s.

Well god thing he's working for the richest studio in Japan!

Also development can't be expensive with Unreal Engine and photogrammatery and stuff like that.

You're trapped in a japanese village unarmed with all the undead residents trying to kill you. You can't kill them, they'll keep coming back. You play multiple characters and your only skill is seeing through the enemies' eyes and figuring out when to sneak past them. It gives off a feeling of dread and hopelessness more than any other game ever made.

I'm so fucking glad I got myself Siren 2! And holy shit those guides must have been expensive as heck!

I never played the sequel. How does it emulate?

>>386346193
They emulate fine, run em in software mode. Unless its all been patched with updates then try both.
PCSX2.

They were only £20 both and well worth it if you're a fan of the franchise. So much information on everything to do with the development, story, timeline, characters and more.

Does it have any art? I remember seeing a number of pieces and always thought it was spooky.

A comic at the end of the first guide, looks like its done by Junji Ito?

Random post card that comes with the first game.

>>386345745
Yeah dude. I can only imagine what Forbidden Siren 2 would look like now if remade on current hardware.

>>386346682
Definitely looks like Ito

>>386346773
Damn, friend. I think I need to find these then.

>>386347315
They are awesome and I am currently working on creating a PDF of all the images and translation of the text in both guides.

I would honestly settle for touched up remaster of the PS3 Siren on PS4.
