After a brief burst of early hype, The Collective's
Harker -- a vampire slaying action game -- completely disappeared. Of course, that makes sense when you factor in the fact that The Collective (who have now been combined with Shiny
to form the new Double Helix studio) was later handed the reins to the latest entry in the
Silent Hill series. If
Konami decided to let us make the next
Silent Hill (note to Konami: not a good idea), we'd drop whatever we were doing too. Unfortunately, it looks like
Harker might be buried in an early grave, as Double Helix's parent company Foundation 9 has announced that the project is on "indefinite hold." Frankly, we were looking forward to killing vampires using the game's environmental hazards and brutal combat engine.
Here's hoping
Harker gets another chance to prove his undead-slaying worth.
