My Silent Hill 2 (Remake) review: This is honestly one of the best horror games I've ever played, and in my opinion, one of the greatest remakes ever made. It takes everything that makes psychological horror so great and delivers it with incredible atmosphere, amazing performances, and some of the best visuals I've seen in a game. I'm very close to finishing my first playthrough (I unfortunately got spoiled a few parts), and the story has still managed to leave a huge impression on me. James' evolution throughout the game is just beyond amazing, and every other character serves an important purpose in the story. Every interaction feels meaningful, and the writing does an incredible job of making each character unique. It's easy to see why so many people consider it one of the greatest stories in gaming :) And the craziest thing? Thanks to this game, I got into Silent Hill as a whole. Before playing it, I had been (somewhat) interested in the series but never really took the time to dive into it. Now I've watched playthroughs, played other Silent Hill games, and looked into the lore. I'm genuinely thankful I gave this remake a chance because it introduced me to a series that I probably would've kept putting off. In conclusion, Silent Hill 2 Remake completely surpassed all of my expectations. This game is a masterpiece, with an incredible atmosphere, amazing story and outstanding performances. Not only did it become one of my favorite horror games ever, it also introduced me to one of my favorite gaming franchises ever. RATING: 10/10
jogo bom. melhor que o F kkkk
Чётко, в натуре чётко. Только авторы черти, на летней распродаже продавали игру за 50 процентов, а через неделю после летней уже за 60
Ahhhhhh me proyecto en james, juegazo
This was my first time playing a game in the Silent Hill franchise. Before playing this, my only exposure to Silent Hill was watching a bunch of cutscenes from Shattered Memories of a terrible psychiatrist who definitely should have their license taken away. I've heard a lot of people say they really love the story of Silent Hill 2, but for the 10 hours I played it, there wasn't much story because it was basically 2 minutes of cutscenes for every 2 hours I spent walking around getting lost. Also, every single character is unlikeable. I stopped playing partway through the hospital because I got sick of being lost and dealing with the annoying characters. (The little kid is especially bad.) One of the puzzles was nearly unsolvable and I had to use a guide, because you were supposed to find numbers written on walls, but the walls were ABSOLUTELY FILLED with scribbles and it would have taken me ages to find the numbers among them. The game also made me nauseous. I had to change a bunch of settings in order to not feel terrible. To say something positive about the game: The map is somewhat useful and I like how James marks it up to put helpful notations on it. I still got lost though.
peakkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
после попадания в локацию под названием тюрьма, я боюсь это проходить
传世经典。痛,太痛了。 如果你真的那么恨我,那为什么你看起来这么悲伤。
where wife
Only giving it a thumbs down until they fix the horrendous performance problems. Game seemed alright for the 3 hours I played. I got to the apartments and was shocked by the frame rate. I started using lossless scaling, which helped, but eventually realized it still wasn't sufficient enough to satisfy me and I uninstalled. Resident Evil 9 ran absolutely fine on my rig. Explain that one.
