This is a great game. But if you cant get the wii version, then get the psp version. For some reason it is more graphically detailed than the ps2 version. the picture is alot more crisp as well.
Brilliant addition to the Silent Hill series. I'm glad they didn't just make a straight remake of the first SH game. There is nothing that can be done to make the
original trilogy any better! The timing for this new Silent Hill couldn't be better!!
Silent Hill proves once again it's reigning status in it's given genre. Simply superb!
5 stars!
Highly recommended!
This story is set just before the infestation that happens/happened to Silent Hill.
I really liked this game, it stands alone from other SHs due to the fact that there's no combat, I repeat, no combat. When you aren't searching for clues as to the whereabouts of your missing daughter, you are in no possible danger.
There are various sequences within the game where your world freezes over and is infested by typical SH creatures. During these "battle sequences" if you can call them that. Your only option is to run for your life through the maze that it Silent Hill.
The game maintains it's creepiness, but I found it less-so than the other games in the series. The good story makes up for the missing fear.
Don't expect your typical SH, but do expect a new type of SH focused more on story than combat.
**Note: Replay value of this game is surprisingly high. The answers you give to your psychiatrist throughout the game, plus the mementos/clues you find shape the story. There are 4 endings, thus far I have achieved 2.
5/5 for fun, because the story is great, and it's a new risk the developers took with the series.
4/5 because it's a good game, but at times I felt like I was just playing a movie, which as good and bad qualities.
5/5 for graphics, some of the best I've seen thus far on my psp
4.5 overall.
I didn't really like this game. It was a fun game to play and all, however it felt like a really short game play. Aside from that it was an alright game. If you're thinking of purchasing this, I recommend not buying it full price. I learned this the hard way. Oh well...Live and learn.
All I can say is to get the PSP over PS2. And the other thing is that after you play to the ending you will be left it speechless. the last two levels are wtf. You will feel the nightmare.
