Hello Co-Optimus my old friend, I've come to talk to you again. I come bearing bad news that came in a vision, whilst I was sleeping (that or from a Destructoid posting). PS Vita owners expecting Silent Hill: Book of Memories in May will have to have a rethink - it ain't happening. The first clue was when Amazon changed the game's release date from the already slipped date in May to October 31st. Now Konami have confirmed that gamers will have to wait several more months to get their greasy mitts on the 4 player online co-op title.
