P.T. hacker uncovers Lisa’s gruesome fate in hidden scene

P.T., the playable teaser for the canceled Silent Hills that would have combined the minds of Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro, is the gift that keeps on giving for horror game fans, and YouTuber Lance McDonald is looking to squeeze as much as he can out of the cult classic.

The cancellation of Silent Hills broke the hearts of many gamers, and because P.T. was eventually taken down from the PlayStation Store, fans resorted to recreations of the terrifying demo. Nothing beats the original though, and as McDonald has discovered, there are still some secrets that remain within it.

In P.T., players move within a looping hallway, subjected to various scares highlighted by a ghost named Lisa. McDonald discovered that the demo pulls off the frights by flipping proverbial switches in the game state, which makes objects, and at times the grotesque Lisa, suddenly appear.

P.T. touches upon mysterious cases of familicide, specifically fathers murdering their wives and children. It has long been assumed that Lisa is a victim of such an aberration, and McDonald might have found her corpse hidden in the game.

By tinkering with the game’s switches, McDonald discovered a hidden scene in the bathroom. Behind the shower curtain, inside a tub full of bloody water, is a headless corpse that is presumably that of Lisa’s. Players never see it because by the time that they enter the bathroom, the body is removed.

It is unclear if the scene was made to be inaccessible within P.T., or the trigger to find it has yet to be found. Chalk it up as another new discovery in the game, a few weeks after McDonald found that Lisa is horrifyingly following players the whole time, explaining the sounds and shadows from behind them.

Kojima has since moved on from Silent Hills, and is now set to release the cryptic Death Stranding, featuring Norman Reedus and Mads Mikkelsen, on November 8. The upcoming game has no involvement from del Toro though, so horror fans can do nothing but imagine what Silent Hills would be like if the project had pushed through.

Quick! This PS5 bundle just got an unprecedented price cut
The Playstation 5 system standing upright.

We didn't expect the PlayStation 5 Slim, the updated version of Sony's video game console, to go on sale this soon, but you can already get the PlayStation 5 Slim Marvel's Spider-Man 2 bundle from Amazon with a 20% discount. From its original price of $559, you'll only have to pay $449, which is a fantastic price for this gaming machine. PS5 deals always attract a lot of attention, so we expect this offer to get sold out quickly. If you want to take advantage of it, you're going to have to hurry in completing your purchase.

Why you should buy the PlayStation 5 Slim Marvel's Spider-Man 2 bundle
The PlayStation 5 Slim is more than just a slimmed-down version of the original PlayStation 5 -- though the difference is noticeable with 18% less weight and 30% less volume for the disc version. There's no performance upgrade between the PS5 Slim and PS5, and you'll be able to play all of the PlayStation 5 games on either model, but the PS5 Slim comes with a 1TB of storage with around 842GB usable, compared to 825GB with 667GB usable in the original PS5. That's nearly 200GB of extra space for your installed games, save data, and screenshots.

How to change your Steam username

Unless you've got an absolute premium username or have too many linked accounts to name, there's no reason to stick with the same username forever. Unlike some services that offer limited username changes or charge to change your tag, Steam allows users to adjust their usernames at any time.

You don't have to keep that awful username you picked on some random Tuesday before hopping into a game. Here's how you can make a change.
