00:00You see, whilst the PC team was busy creating music games, Konami had actually been working on a new project.
00:06A project so big that they felt it warranted its own team, one that would go on to become known
00:12simply as Team Silent.
00:13This secretive group of developers were tasked with creating something special,
00:18a survival horror game for the PlayStation called Silent Hill after two years of development.
00:23The game was finally complete and was ready to be shown to the world.
00:27But the executives at Konami weren't too sure about the game.
00:31They thought that it looked a bit too realistic and that the story was a little bit dark.
00:36So, to try and attract a wider audience, they gave the game a much more eye-catching title,
00:42then slapped a teen rating on it and sent it out into the world.
00:46And oh boy, were they in for a surprise?
00:49Silent Hill became an instant hit with critics and fans alike praising its disturbing atmosphere and its complex storyline.
00:56In fact, it quickly sold over one million copies and went on to spawn multiple sequels and even a film.
01:03But despite all this, the people at Konami still weren't satisfied.
