Delay hits Silent Hill: Downpour

Silent Hill: Downpour has been officially delayed and will not now be released until Q1 2012.

The game had previously been down for a November release on both PS3 and Xbox 360.

It will now be released some time in Q1 2012.

Furthermore, Konami has retorted to claims of a delay to Metal Gear Solid HD Collection by insisting that the game was never given a concrete release date in the first place.

However, rightly or wrongly the SKU had been pegged for a Q4 2011 release – not least by nearly every retailer under the sun. In recent weeks, though, most have changed their estimated release date to mid 2012.
