Konami Talks About Saw The Video Game!
ByKonami marketeer David Daniels has been talking about the video game adaptation of Saw.
Basically he sees the game version of the torture porn series as a rival to their own Silent Hill franchise.
He had this to say…
“Because we have leadership in the survival horror genre we’re passionate about it and wanted to find another property on par with Silent Hill. Silent Hill was more about psychological terror, but Saw for us is more about graphic, intense horror that overwhelms you. We want players to turn away from the screen for just a moment because of the visual intensity.”
Mmm, Konami have leadership in the survival horror genre?
I’m sure both Capcom (Resident Evil) and EA (Dead Space) will have something to say about that.
But wait, there’s more…
“One of the big pillars of Saw is the mechanical twister serial killer Jigsaw’s very unusual traps. And you can expect that’s something we’ll carry forward. Some traps will even be a direct translation from the movies, particularly the iconic ones the fans love.”
Personally I’d love to see this on the Wii. Imagine sawing your own leg off with the Wii-mote!
