Silent Hill 2

I'll say it, Silent Hill 2: Remake is the best horror game in years. It's terrifying, punishing, and an absolutely nail-biting experience pristinely paced to wring every chill and cry from the player it can. Bloober absolutely excelled in creating a masterpiece from a masterpiece, learning from the wonderful work of Team Silent while coding in their own DNA to create an instant modern classic.

From the foreboding fog to the crunchy combat, Silent Hill fans the world over should rejoice because the series is back and back with a voracious vengeance. It's gorgeous and narratively timeless, showing an incredibly raw look at mental health issues that, while not the most hopeful, contain painful lessons with uncomfortable truths that might just leave you with a level of compassion to your fellow man you otherwise wouldn't have experienced.

And all from a video game...take that naysayers.

I got the deluxe ps5 version and started playing 2 days early. This remake is incredible. It is beautiful, frightening, and emotionally impactful.

Bloober team has completely outdone all the naysayers. This gane is way scarier than the 2001 original and some scenes/segments truly gave my heart some trauma. The attention to detail and synergy of music, dialog, and visuals is simply amazing.

Any SH or survival horror fan should experience this new masterpiece. It believably pulls off the beauty, tragedy, and fever nightmare hellscape that the original strived for.

I can't wait to see all the endings.

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.

The game has a very good atmosphere and the environment gives the player a very good feeling. Everything that was expected from the city of Silent Hill is felt in the environment. Fortunately, the composition has not changed and this is much more acceptable than a new music. The faces of the characters, except for Angela, look very satisfactory, but the design of Marie's dress is not as good as the first version, and this dress design is seen as weak. The voice acting is really good, unlike the 2013 Collection game, which was a disaster.

The story of the game is designed exactly like the OG game and I hope this trend continues in other versions of Silent Hill.

Atmosphere 10/10 Music 10/10 Fight 8/10 Story 9/10 Adaptation and remake 9/10 Face, style and body of characters 7/10 Voiceover and cassette 10/10 Total score 9.

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.
