Tim Street - Editor of Nintendo Official Magazine has clarified the confusion surrounding the possibility of Silent Hill 3 on the Nintendo GameCube.
Head inside to see what he said.
Tim Street, posted the following on our affiliates Cube-Europe's forums:
Blimey guys,
We've certainly got you all talking about Nintendo Official Magazine.
You're right to say we are changing in a couple of issues, but the cover that you've all seen is just a mock-up and nothing like the real thing.
As for a NOM demo disc we know it's what everyone wants. As many of you have concluded, the US image was attached to see how much readers would pay for one. There are no firm plans yet but you will be the first to know when it happens.
As for the prize draw, it's already taken place from all the emails received and Andy from Sheffield has already received his chosen prize - a copy of Burnout 2. Thanks to everyone who replied to the survey on-line, it's given the NOM team great feedback to make the new mag the best it's ever been.
We know Silent Hill's not coming to GameCube, we just wanted to have some fun thinking of games that we'd like to see on Nintendo and how much better GameCube could make them.
So come on all you Cube-Europe members, we want to know what games on other consoles would be better on GameCube and why. Just send them direct to me at
tim.street@emap.com and we may use them in a future issue of NOM.
Take it easy guys.
Tim
So that all but clears it up, there will be no Silent Hill 3 for the Nintendo GameCube. Bit of a mean joke, and I personally am not amused. But at least there's a glimmer of hope for a demo disc here on European shores.
