Based on the original 2001 game, Silent Hill 2 has made a comeback not in the form of a remaster but rather in the form of a successful remake. Developed by Bloober Team and produced by Konami, Silent Hill 2 follows James Sutherland as he traverses into the horror realm of Silent Hill. But with Silent Hill 2 amassing such great success and fulfilling every fan's expectations, is another Silent Hill remake in order?

The SH2 remake has sold nearly 2 million copies, according to the official Silent Hill X account. And due to that success, many fans argue that Silent Hill 1 is next in line to be remade, considering the franchise's success stems from the original PlayStation game.

Sydney, Oct 16 (Ians) Australia's three biggest golf tournaments have fallen victim to the Covid-19 pandemic as it was announced on Friday that men's and women's Australian Open and the PGA Championship, have been cancelled.

All were due in February. It is for the first time since 1945 that the men's Open will not be played.
