Silent Hill 2

I played so many games in my life, specially survival horror games. There is no game that affected me like silent hill 2 did. Remaking this game was like impossible job to do. I still cant believe how Bloober Team recreated it that professionally.

Positives:

• One of the best stories in gaming history
• THE BEST MUSIC in gaming history
• very good acting/voice-acting
• the graphics are amazing
• the puzzles are solid
• the combat is designed accurately to make you helpless
• Boss fights are awesome

Negatives:

• I dont know, may be personally i wished it a little bit shorter. I like games around 10 hours and it was about 16 hours. But ist not really a negative.

Never in my life have I played the silent hill saga for a reason that at the time that silent hill 2 came out on PS1 I was a child and at that age it was not common to play horror games, now when analyzing this work of art I have to admit that it is the best horror game I have ever played in my life, I have never played any SH before, I am amazed, from the exquisite story, its graphic quality, but most importantly the psychological terror and stress that this game generates is not for everyone It's brilliant, its music hits the mark in every moment of tension, the game doesn't give you a chance to relax. Masterpiece 10/10.

I absolutely love the cinematography in this game, the dialogue & voice acting is so good, and the OG silent hill music during scenes hits you emotionally so hard

big props to the voice actress of Angela who I think absolutely carries any scene she's in, the perfect tone of voice innocent/lost, broken, confused.

I will say tho and I'm sorry for any OG fans that I may offend, but I do find that the exploration can kinda drag in some spots, so I was losing interest in some spots but it really doesnt stay like that for long.

The game is unbelievably eery, and silent hill is just the definition of a perfect environment for horror.

Its here and its perfect.

As with all remakes i was very cautious and just hoped it would not be screwed up by some greedy fart face involved in its development.

It came out so much better than i could hope for.

I have been playing the original for years since it came out. Once a year at least. This new version is incredible. Its got everything from the old game and so much more. Its bigger, better and beautiful. The original was on pa2 so the backgrounds were always limited to look a bit plain but this new one takes all you loved and fleshes it out big time. I love exploring the town in the old fame but now you can really explore so much more. Some shops are open and you can explore those now too.

This new remake is everything i hoped it would be and so much more.

Compared to great remakes like RE2 and Dead Space, this one probably sits right next to them for being great. Well maybe a bit higher as it has always been a favourite game to go to.

I also hope the original gets cheaper and the scalpers dont get what they ask for a ps2 copy. You greedy scalpers charging over 200$

I hope we get more and GOOD silent hill games like this.

Because the ones that have come out in the past decade are mediocre.

Except for the Ascension. That was just terrible.

I played this remake of the original 2001 one for the first time on Sony PS5 on the 8th October 2024 and I finished it yesterday (17th October 2024). It's a great remake and I love it! It's kinda very creepy especially the hospital but it's still worth playing.

I like both the original version and the remake version. They're both brilliant as well. I cannot prefer so who cares which one is better anyway?

I'm delighted that Konami has brought back Silent Hill and it's all thanks to the Polish team Bloober Team. Fair play to them.

It's probably one of the best video game remakes I've ever played in my life!

I always love Silent Hill. It's my favourite horror video game series of all time and Silent Hill 2 is my favourite one in the series too.
