Silent Hill: Origins “still on track,” says dev member
Survival horror game fans must have been horrified to hear of the Silent Hill: Origins delay rumor from last month. It certainly scared the pants off of readers and forum members of SilentHillOrigins.com, one of whom tried to keep sending Climax Studio devs email after email asking WTF was going on. SilentHillOrigins.com reports that late last week, Leonstars (that forum member) finally received a reply from Climax member Steve Merrett. And the reply reads:

Hi,
There are loads of rumours out there, but that is all they are – unsubstantiated gossip. Silent Hill Origins is still on track for the early 2007 release it always was.

“Yay!” goes SilentHillOrigins.com and our readers who’re also Silent Hill fans. We’d love to jump for joy, too, but what we’d really like is independent verification of the letter, or an official press release from Climax or Konami, before we can move this post from the “Rumors” column to the “News” column.
We don’t want to be killjoys; we got survival horror fans working here too who want to see Origins on the PSP. Which is why we’re looking for hard evidence every time a newsbit comes up. What’s nice about this newsbyte, though, is that even as we still seek further confirmation, we can breathe a little easier about Silent Hill: Origins seeing the light of day.
Normally, I find it very difficult to breathe when I play Silent Hill. Or see the light of day, for that matter (Which is why I usually hand the controller off to my brother. I’m such a *****).
