You guys don't sound very hopeful, lol. I don't blame yall though. Silent Hill is my favorite survivor horror series and I hate seeing it get shady games. But you never know, maybe they can pull this one off. *crosses fingers*

There's a direct control parallel between the two inputs, that being that the Wiimote simply takes the place of your analog stick when you're capping Las Plagas. Silent Hill had nothing like that at all. It's not a shooter disguised as a survival horror game. It's straight up third person survival horror action, pre- RE4.
Consider also that the last couple Silent Hill efforts by US contractors have been disappointing to say the least. Let's also not forget Castlevania Judgment, the last time Konami treated us to a fan-favorite-franchise Wii incarnation. Utter garbage.
Here's hoping. I'm going to let someone else take the bullet first, though.
Also: no combat? Is this Silent Hill or Haunting Ground?

The first game was awesome so I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out.

According to IGN the game will be titled Shattered Memories, will be a "reimaging" of the original and will be available on PS2 and PSP as well as the Wii.
Now I'm all down for anything Silent Hill, but I would have much preferred a nextgen remake of the game if anything.
If it does end up being good, I'll grab it for the PS2.
