First of all, I would like to say that I am not intending to make it, neither am I asking from anyone else to consider the idea of making it. It's just an idea I had in mind, and I would like to hear your opinions about it.
Anyway, I played through Silent Hill 3, and enjoyed it a lot, I could write my opinion about it, but I don't want to turn this into a review of the game.
What I did found interesting about it, is that much of the scenery in the game reminded me a lot of the scenery in the classic horror series Nightmare on Elm Street.
And then, after I completed the game, it suddenly occurred to me: The game engine and scenery could be used very well to make a Nightmare on Elm Street "mod" for it! Think about it. Change the main character a little bit. Exchange Silent Hill for Springwood. Remember those parts in the game where normal (though weird) places like the mall, the office building, the hospital would tranform into their sinister counterparts? This could be used as what Springwood would transform into in the main character's dream. Of course, this would mean that the main character would have to fall asleep to go there. All that in-game info about the cult would be exchanged for information about Springwood and Freddy Krueger. Of course, all the places in the game should be the ones from the movies: The children's asylum, the school, Amanda Krueger's graveyard, the abandoned factory where Freddy used to work, and of course, 1428 Elm Street, the house where it all began.
Well, what do you think of my idea? Does it sound interesting? Do you think it could be turned into a game? Should I e-mail it to Konami?
